It may not be easy being green, but for Dr. James Saleam, being a neo-Nazi of ‘non-white’ descent who is simultaneously the public face of a political party — Australia First — dedicated to reintroducing a White Australia is… well, let’s just say ‘difficult’.
Very difficult.
In fact, following closely on the heels of Australia First’s decision to attempt to re-register (which in turn follows closely on the heels of ‘Cronulla’), racists on stormfront have been subjecting poor old Jim to much derision over his inability to prove that he’s ‘all-white’ (and therefore ‘alright’). After all, even a mob as stupid as congregates at stormfront understands that being a White Supremacist generally requires one to actually be ‘white’. (Incidentally, one poor bastard on that forum who discovered that he had an Asian forebear left before he was banned… all the while reiterating his dedication to the cause of wiping himself and all other non-whites off the face of the map (of Australia)!)
Of course, not-being-white is not-Jim’s-only-problem. Your average Aussie punter, let alone your average Aussie racist, also has to contend with the fact that Jim is a convicted criminal who has twice been sentenced to jail for his crimes. And not just any old crimes, either: the shotgun attack on Eddie Funde’s house in 1989 was not only organised by Jim; it endangered the lives of an entire family (shotgun pellets were found at the foot of Eddie’s infant child’s bed). Making Jim not only a very mixed-up man, but a vicious, cowardly thug to boot.
Unfortunately for Jim, his predicament is an intractable one. Either he lies and produces doctored texts which seek to prove his ‘European’ heritage (Jim claims to be of Greek descent), or he simply comes clean and admits that his father was Lebanese, his mother English, and that he himself — logically enough — is the product of race-mixing. On the other hand, Jim has been a fascist activist for well over 30 years now, and there’s really no way he can renounce his political commitments and/or admit to his ancestry without at the same time greatly increasing his chances of experiencing a complete mental breakdown…
For those of us who are less enthusiastic than stormfront at the prospect of a fascist party losing elections, this is something of a predicament. Thus, if Jim retains control of Australia First (or, to be precise, its only real ‘branch’ in Sydney), an explicitly racist and obviously fascist party will be headed by a ‘non-white’, a truly farcical situation… although even a cursory examination of Jim’s political life would suggest that political farce — like the accusation of blood ‘pollution’ — follows Jim around like a shadow. And even if Jim loses in his attempt to remain a figurehead, Australia First still needs to recruit a cleanskin prepared to publically endorse racism and fascism. And for all their whining, it appears that very few ‘proud white Australian nationalists’ are prepared to do just that.
I say: Put a Lebanese into Parliament! Vote Australia First!

Stand By Your Man
(Tammy Wynette/Billy Sherrill)Sometimes it’s hard to be a Nazi
Giving all your love to just one man
You’ll have bad times
And he’ll have good times
Doing things that you don’t understandStand by your man
Give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to
When nights are cold and lonely
Stand by your man
And tell the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can
Stand by your manBut if you love him you’ll forgive him
Even though he’s hard to understand
And if you love him
Oh be proud of him
Cause after all he’s just a manStand by your man
Give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to
When nights are cold and lonely
Stand by your man
And tell the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can
Stand by your manStand by your man
And show the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can
Stand by your man
