David Irving: Correspondence

David Irving
Correspondence

Irving threatens Mr. McVay with a libel suit, and McVay responds.

Irving repeats his threat to sue Mr. McVay, while making it patently clear that he has not filed libel actions against Australian or British jurists who have stated that he has lied under oath, nor filed such action against Canadian Immigration Adjudicator Thompson, who found that Irving fabricated his testimony.

Mr. McVay responds to Irving's threats by stating that Mr. Irving has lied under oath, and does so within the jurisdiction of British courts. Mr. McVay awaits Mr. Irving's writ.
