Reading is dangerous!
The Anarchist Library

We introduce, for your pleasure, The Anarchist Library, an archive of anarchist texts: books, essays, and articles. We hope that this archive grows from its initial selection of over 400 titles (books, essays, and articles) into a comprehensive textual library that spans the entirety of anarchist thought.

The Internet has allowed us an amazing opportunity to share anarchist texts widely. This has allowed more people than ever access to obscure anarchist literature and propaganda. The few existing anarchist archives have all been helpful and inspirational to this project, which arises due to the inactivity of the existing online anarchist archives, with little sign that anyone is specifically serving as a librarian (commonly lacking introduction, curation, updating, or all of the above). A library is either active or dying and with the internet popping with new anarchist texts every day, we believe it would be a shame to not attend to them.

Our group is comprised of anarchists spread across 10 timezones that use conversational consensus to review, edit and update the site. We are an open group.

Monson wins with a KO for anarchism

This article came out of a talk given in Belfast by anarchist MMA fighter Jeff Monson in March 2009. The article first appeared in issue 1 of The Leveller.

Anarchist and professional mixed-martial arts (MMA) fighter Jeff Monson was in Belfast in March to fight Lithuanian Sergej Maslobojev in the main event of Cage Wars’ “Decade” in Belfast’s Kings Hall. Never shy from speaking his mind about his politics, when it comes to his opinions about capitalism, Jeff literally wears his heart on his sleeve, as evidenced by the many political tattoos he displays…

    One of my favourite political cults is the “glorious” Rural People’s Party. Viva also “La Resistencia Latina”!
    “Introductory Document of La Resistencia Latina” (English version)

    Brothers and sisters, comrades, the Central Committee of the Revolutionary People’s Organization, with the authorization of the glorious Rural People’s Party have come up with the conclusion that the transformation and radicalization of the collective’s name from the “Revolutionary People’s Organization” to “La Resistencia Latina” would be and is a dynamic advancement for the whole party and collective. On behalf of the Central Committee of La Resistencia Latina, we on 3-18-09 officially announce the transformation of the collective from the “Revolutionary People’s Organization” to “La Resistencia Latina”. We wholeheartedly side with the masses worldwide and reject any type of racism, capitalism, imperialism, fascism, chauvinism, revisionism, and zionism, and wish death upon all these bourgeois elements that are the main causes of why the world is as it is; i.e rotten…

    Long Live the glorious Rural People’s Party!
    Long Live La Resistencia Latina!
    Long Live the internationalist proletariat!
    Long Live the masses worldwide!
    Death to U$ imperialism!
    Death to Israeli zionism!
    Death to all imperialisms and zionisms worldwide!

Following the BNP’s entry into the Brussels bureaucracy and the far right being up eight seats on the 2004 European elections…
A warning for Democrats?
Michael Lind
Salon
June 9, 2009

The right just won all across Europe, thanks to nationalism, populism and recession. It could happen [in the United States] too.

The populist backlash that many have predicted would follow the crash of 2008 is here. Well, not here, exactly. Over there, in Europe.

In the June 7 elections to the European Parliament, center-left social democrats were devastated, while far-right nationalist and populist candidates made big gains. The center-left fell from 217 seats to 159, while the center-right coalition remained the largest bloc with 267 seats.

The biggest story involves the gains by a variety of extreme-right parties, many of which combine populist nationalism with hostility to immigration for ethnic or economic reasons. The far-right British National Party (BNP), whose leader Nick Griffin claims that “indigenous” white Britons are “second-class citizens” in their own homeland, won a seat in the European Parliament for the first time. Other nationalist, anti-immigrant parties picked up seats in Denmark, the Netherlands, Austria, Hungary, Finland, Romania and Greece…

    Finally…
    Filling The Vacuum
    …a strategy document that was endorsed by London AFA in May 1995, and published in Fighting Talk, No.12, November 1995…

    In November 1990, at a public meeting in east London, AFA declared that the “working class is the natural constituency of socialism, not fascism. Racism and socialism are incompatible. One only exists at the expense of the other. The success of the Far-Right is due to the fact that the Left are not seen as a credible option. AFA are committed to creating the space in which one (a credible alternative) can develop.”…

Andrew Brons : You’ve Come A Long Way, Baby

Posted on June 9, 2009 by @ndy

Andrew Brons: the genteel face of neo-fascism, Duncan Campbell, The Guardian, June 8, 2009: “British National party MEP and former National Front chairman who started political life in group set up in honour of Hitler.”

There’s hope for Dr James Saleam yet!

It was on Hitler’s birthday, deliberately chosen, that the National Socialist Movement was formed in Britain in the 1960s. It was the first political organisation of the far right that Andrew Brons, the newly-elected British National party MEP for Yorkshire and Humberside, was to join – but not the last.

The group that he signed up to as a teenager had been founded in honour of Hitler by the British fascist leader, the late Colin Jordan. No mention of this early political involvement features on the BNP’s website celebrating Brons’s victory. Instead, Brons is portrayed just as a “veteran British Nationalist”…

Sonia Gable of Searchlight said that his past made him a strange choice for a BNP seeking to create a “respectable” image for itself.

“Everyone in the BNP is trying to look respectable and Brons is an odd choice because he was in the NF at its most racist,” she said.

She added that she thought Brons had been chosen as a candidate because Nick Griffin, the chairman of the BNP, believed that he would have strong links with far-right organisations in Europe.

The BNP denies being an anti-semitic organisation, and when asked about Brons’s involvement with the NSM and the NF and his calls for compulsory repatriation, a spokesman for the party said: “That was nearly 30 years ago, times have moved on … You print what you want.”

…Arnold Leese, a former vet, an anti-Semite, and admirer of Hitler, had been a founder member of the Imperial Fascist League in 1928. Released from prison in 1944 on grounds of ill-health, Leese became the [principal] star in the 1940s British fascist firmament, attracting to him all the leading national socialist players of the 1950s and 1960s, including Cambridge graduate and schoolteacher Colin Jordan. When Leese and his wife died, the house [Arnold Leese House, 46–48 Princedale Road, Holland Park] was left to Jordan who turned it into the base for his “White Defense League”, the instigators of much of the racial confrontation in Notting Hill in the late-1950s. In 1960, the WDL merged with the National Labour Party to form the Hitlerite British National Party and then the National Socialist Movement, founded by Jordan and John Tyndall on what would have been Hitler’s 73rd birthday, 20 April 1962.

The paranoid wackos of this seedy West London tenement had one thing in common — the conviction that Jews, freemasons, homosexuals, gypsies, Jesuits, anarchists and Communist Party members were all agents of subversion under the control of a ruthless global elite directing world events to their advantage…

Bonus Jordan!


“Hmmm… knickers!”

Veteran British neo-Nazi Colin Jordan (June, 1923–April 9, 2009) is dead.

Jordan established the ‘National Socialist Movement’ and ‘World Union of National Socialists’ in the UK in 1962. He struck gold in 1963 when he married wealthy heiress Françoise Dior. In addition to being a nutzi, Jordan will most likely be remembered for his rather spectacular fall from grace.

Jordan reorganized the National Socialist Movement itself in 1968 as the British Movement, but by 1974 he has been forced to step down in favor of Michael McLaughlin. The split was far less than amicable. It was Jordan, however, who provided McLaughlin with the sword with which to do in the movement’s founder, and Jordan further obliged his enemies by taking a running start and skewering himself in a manner guaranteed to bring maximum public humiliation. It seems that, for reasons best known only to him, Jordan was arrested on charges of simple shoplifting. Worse, Jordan’s booty was comprised of lingerie — to wit, pairs of women’s panties. Why the financially secure Jordan would resort to this method of shopping was a mystery to the British Movement, but soon the internal correspondence of many of the faithful had brought to Jordan the nickname of “Knickers Stealer”, and the McLaughlin faction of the British Movement had a field day with the news. The label stuck, dogging Jordan’s ill-fated campaigns in the 1970s to seize back control of the British Movement and, indeed, to reenter the British National Socialist scene that had, in truth, long since left him behind.

Far left, far right, far out

Posted on June 8, 2009 by @ndy

The British Labour Party has had its arse handed to it on a plate for the second time in a week: “Labour has suffered its worst post-war election result as it was beaten into third place by UKIP and saw the BNP gain its first seats at Brussels” (BBC, June 8, 2009). The Working Families Party secured 2,381,760 votes in the Euro election, or 15.7%, down 6.9%, as a result losing five seats (for a winning total of 13). Of 44,173,690 UK citizens registered to vote, only 15,136,932 bothered to show up, just over 1/3. In Europe as a whole, in addition to the UK, the far right made significant gains in some states, while losing influence in several others (Far right make gains in ten member states, Leigh Phillips, EUobserver, June 8, 2009), the election witnessing a record low turn-out of 43%:

In total, the far right is up eight seats on the 2004 European elections.

In Austria, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Romania and the UK, the far right made moderate to significant advances.

However, the extreme right saw sharp declines in Belgium, and France, and were completely wiped out in Poland.

Presumably, the far right will now proceed to form a fascist bloc in the Parliament, following the abortion (January–November 2007) that was ‘Identity, Tradition, Sovereignty’. To do so, the fascists require 25 members from seven countries to participate. Among those who might qualify are: Freiheitliche Partei Österreichs, FPÖ (Freedom Party of Austria) in Austria (2), Национален съюз Атака / Natsionalen Sǎyuz Ataka (National Union Attack) in Bulgaria (2), Front national (National Front) in France (3), Vlaams Belang (Flemish Interest) in Belgium (2), Jobbik in Hungary (3), Partij voor de Vrijheid, PVV (Party for Freedom) in the Netherlands (4), Partidul România Mare, PRM (Greater Romania Party) in Romania (3), the BNP in the UK (2) and…

Oh.

Wait.

In the UK and Ireland, the (far) left made a few gains: in Dublin, the Socialist Party’s Joe Higgins has been bumped into Parliament, and er… the Socialist Labour Party (Arfur Scargill’s mob) got a total of 173,115 votes (1.1%), while between them the 8 candidates for the Socialist Party of Great Britain grabbed 4,050 votes. (Also in Ireland, ‘People Before Profit’ got five seats in local council elections.)

See also : Results from Europe’s big six, BBC, June 8, 2009: “Centre-right parties have triumphed over their left-wing opponents in the 2009 European Parliament elections. There were victories too for far-right and anti-immigrant parties, but the turnout was a record low of 43%. The results allow the centre-right European People’s Party (EPP) to cement its position as the largest bloc in the European Parliament. Here we take a more detailed look at the results from some of the largest countries in the European Union…” | European Parliament Election Results by Country, Der Spiegel, June 9, 2009 | EUROPEAN ELECTION RESULTS 2009.

On a brighter note, Lord Toby Jug of The Official Monster Raving Loony Party beat the Labour Party in the St Ives ward of Cambridgeshire county council: Labour came sixth behind two Conservatives, two Liberal Democrats and Lord Jug.

Sweden also voted a pirate into Parliament.

Mr. Griffin Goes To Brussels

Posted on June 8, 2009 by @ndy


Heil Victory!

After having apparently been declared unfit for Australia, wealthy Welshman and fuehrer of the British National Party Nick Griffin has been elected to the European Parliament. (Also Andrew Brons, in the Yorkshire and Humber area.)

Griffin welcomed the victory as a vindication of the party’s claim that “we’re here to look after our people because no one else is”. He said that feelings were particularly strong in Yorkshire, where former pit communities felt “at the bottom of the heap”.

Pointing to other big rises in the BNP vote to 15% in Rotherham and nearly 12% in Doncaster, Griffin said: “This is ordinary decent people in Yorkshire kicking back against racism, because racism in this country is now directed overwhelmingly against people who look like me.”

Griffin, who had to reach Manchester town hall for his own count in a police van after anti-fascist demonstrators blocked his convoy and hurled eggs, said immigration had become harmful to Britain, particularly with the spread of radical Islam. “Take Bradford – it isn’t immigration that’s happening there, it’s colonialism,” he said.

Up to 36 reported killed in Amazon land protest
Carla Salazar
AP

LIMA, Peru (AP) — Indians protesting government moves to develop oil, gas and other resources on their lands battled police in Peru’s Amazon on Friday, with authorities and Indian leaders separately reporting 11 police and 25 protester[‘]s deaths…

Er…

A few weeks ago, Amazon Indians declared that they were now insurgents… sorta. Actually, what they want — and the motivating force behind their quasi-insurgency — is the repeal of a new law (the so-called 1090 decree / ‘law of the jungle’) which, in accordance with a ‘free trade’ agreement, makes it easier for their lands to be confiscated and given over to corporations — “The protests, against decrees aligning Peruvian law with a free-trade deal with the United States, have affected production at oil wells owned by Argentina’s Pluspetrol, French-English Perenco, Petroperu and Talisman.”

Amazon Indians are bad for business.

The Peruvian government, on the other hand, loves business, and it appears that on Friday it ordered police to smash a roadblock on a highway (in the Bagua region of Amazonas province) established by indigenous groups engaged in various protest activities since April. In the process of doing so, police killed around two dozen indigenous protesters, while they themselves not only suffered a dozen or so casualties but had 38 officers taken hostage (Al Jazeera). Now (Sunday) it appears that at least 9 of these hostages were killed during the course of a rescue attempt, 22 being successfully freed while another 7 remain unaccounted for (BBC).

I smell another massacre.

BNP ~versus~ British voters

Posted on June 6, 2009 by @ndy

A massive collapse in the popular vote for the party of Labour / Working Families in English county council elections has resulted in heap ’em big gains for the Tories, but brings little joy for the British National Party. Latest figures suggest the fascist muppets have gained three seats (from a pool of over 400 candidates). The winners are: Deirdre Gates in South Oxhey, Hertfordshire; Sharon Wilkinson in Padiham & Burley West, Lancashire; and Graham Partner in Coalville, Leicestershire. Results in the Euro contest become available on Sunday.

In the land of clogs and windmills: “The party of the right-wing Dutch MP, Geert Wilders, has come second in the country’s elections for the European Parliament, partial results indicate. Mr Wilders, who is facing prosecution over anti-Islamic statements, said his Freedom Party (PVV) would get four of the 25 Dutch seats in the parliament…” (Dutch far right in poll triumph, BBC, June 5, 2009). Wilder’s victory will bring happy joy to lying yuppie hack (and ABC Board member) Janet Albrechtsen, who reckons young Muslim men rape ‘cos they’re Muslims. And ethnic…

Discussing race or ethnicity is neither racist nor xenophobic. Tackling problems head on can only encourage further immigration; ignoring them will be immigration’s death knell. Our tolerance of these Muslim pack-rapists simply feeds their intolerance of us. It took the French 20 years to work that out. How long will it take us?

Illegal immigrants Sheppard and Whittle to be sent ‘home’

Posted on June 6, 2009 by @ndy


Happy Happy; Joy Joy.

Convicted racist to be deported from USA
Lancashire Evening Post
June 4, 2009

A Preston man, seeking asylum in the United States after being convicted of hate speech crimes in the UK will be deported after nearly a year in US custody.

Stephen Whittle, 42, and Simon Sheppard, 52, of Selby, fled in July 2008 after being convicted of publishing hate speech against Jews and other groups on their website.

The men sought asylum under America’s free speech protections, claiming they were being persecuted for their right-wing views.

They were taken into custody at Los Angeles International Airport when they asked a uniformed US official for help.

An immigration judge ordered that the men be deported to the UK to face justice, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Sheppard and Whittle fled the UK last July during a trial at Leeds Crown Court after being released on bail while the jury deliberated over further charges after convicting them on several counts.

Go Pat!

‘Disgusting’ website urged offensive against Indians
Mark Schliebs
NEWS.com.au
June 4, 2009

AN Australian website urging a “hate offensive” against Indians was condemned as “disgusting”, while fears grow that racial tensions will escalate.

For the past six months, Melbourne man Patrick O’Sullivan has posted comments onto a white supremacy forum about how “evil” Indians were and urged others to participate in a “Summer hate offensive” in the Victorian city.

In a post just before Christmas, he asked for people to call him if they wanted to participate.

“For those of you in or nearby Melbourne, contact me. This summer a lot of Race Hate is occurring! RAHOWA!”

RAHOWA is understood to stand for Racial Holy War.

Senior police and Indian students deplored the web comments but police said they doubted they had caused a spate of assaults on Indian students, despite members of the forum pledging to join in the “offensive”.

Mr O’Sullivan, who was jailed in 2002 for stabbing a man who accused him of not being a Nazi due to his Irish blood, told news.com.au that the posts were not intended to incite violence and that he was now a peaceful man.

He said his rallying call for a “Summer hate offensive” was a peaceful way to recruit people into the Creativity Movement, whose website describes itself as a “Progressive Pro-White Religion”.

In late November, Mr O’Sullivan posted a comment – using the name “RAWHOWA NOW” – on a neo-Nazi forum which said he was sick of “Dirty F**king Indians”.

“They infest the Melbourne area. I could write all day (about) how evil and putrid those scum are… one particularly infuriating thing about these curry n*ggers is their arrogance,” he said.

“I think this may seem (to have originated) from the apathy of Whites not putting tem (sic) in their place. Those browm (sic) maggots used to get spat on, tolchocked and on occasion even stabbed and/or hospitalised.

“I’m not saying to commit illegal acts, violence etc. This is merely and observation of mine.”

…

A few points:

Pat’s Summer Offensive was launched on Stormfront in December 2007 — not 2008. (He posts on that diseased forum using the handle ‘Rev.Patrick.-WCOTC’.)
Pat’s posts on SF may be divided into three categories: 1. Racial hatred. 2. Denunciations of other racists. 3. Appreciation of the talents of various blonde female TV personalities.
IRL, Pat spends his days wandering around Melbourne putting stickers up promoting his Church.
Late last year, a bonehead was filmed in Melbourne’s Chinatown, racially abusing random passers-by — including a small group of Koori children… More details to follow.

On the bizarro white supremacist religious kkkult known as ‘Creativity’, see : Creative (and c r e e p y) Australians (November 3, 2008) | Pat is also a vocal supporter of nutzi group ‘Combat 18’; C18 is closely associated with one of two major nutzi networks known as ‘Blood & Honour’, see : Blood and Honour vs. Blood and Honour (April 12, 2009).

Who is Patrick O’Sullivan and where does he come from?

Full name, Patrick John O’Sullivan. In 1988, O’Sullivan lived in Adelaide (South Australia), where as a sixteen year old self-proclaimed ‘Bonehead’ he made contact with the Nationalist political party, Australian National Action (ANA). By 1989, he had made the move to Melbourne (Victoria, Australia) where he was later expelled from the party along with several others after a failed attempted takeover. In 1995 in an attempt to shut down ANA operations, O’Sullivan swore out a complaint against the Chairman of ANA, Michael Brander, for assault (a complaint which he later withdrew).

Peter Coleman, David Palmer and Robert Leys: In the years 1998 – 2001, O’Sullivan worked for Peter Coleman as an assistant in his militaria business. On that basis he travelled the country with him. The 1999 campaign against the One Nation Party, designed by a Greg Roberts of the Sydney Morning Herald, had Peter Coleman, David Palmer and Patrick O’Sullivan pretending to represent the National Socialist Movement (NSM), the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) and the World Church of the Creator (WCOTC), respectively. At no point was the reader or viewer of the shocking tales of a supposed “neo-Nazi” takover of One Nation Party told O’Sullivan was Coleman’s employee, let alone that the three were acting alone and had no connection to the American groups they claimed to represent. Robert Leys, who was also an associate of Coleman, Palmer and O’Sullivan, had earlier falsely claimed to represent the WCOTC in Australia as a reverend.

O’Sullivan did, however, eventually join the WCOTC; where he spent the next few years abusing WCOTC leader, Matt Hale, behind his back for refusing to expel those Australian WCOTC members whom O’Sullivan did not personally approve.

In 2002, O’Sullivan was sentenced to two and a half years in prison for the stabbing of a Bonehead at a party. All of which he spent in protective custody where he proudly declared himself to be a ‘Political Prisoner’ and maintained a constant, if government monitored, dialogue with the marginalized gang elements within the WCOTC – who upon Matt Hale’s arrest, acted together in a coup to oust hundreds of members from the Church and gain control of it for themselves. Following his release from prison, O’Sullivan quickly siezed upon his reputation for martyrdom and used it to personally expel more than forty Church members within three months. These days, the group is known as The Creativity Movement (TCM). O’Sullivan is the leader and only remaining member from when the group was known as the WCOTC. Other than symbols and terminology, it has no association with the former World Church of the Creator.

Who is Peter John Coleman and where does he come from?

A resident of Merrylands, Sydney, Coleman owns a mail-order business selling military regalia. He has been the deputy leader of the West Australian-based neo-Nazi group, the Australian Nationalists Movement, and the deputy leader of David Palmer’s NSDAP group (see below). In 1999 Coleman was appointed Grand Titan (provincial head) or Exalted Cyclops (chapter president) of the Imperial Klans of America – Realm of Australia. Coleman has suggested that he recruited for his group at branch meetings of the One Nation Party, of which he was a member. He was later expelled by One Nation once his association with the klan became known.

In the September-October 1999 issue of the newsletter of the Imperial Klans of America, Imperial Wizard (national leader) Ron Edwards confirmed Coleman’s appointment as the head of the group’s Australian arm. Edwards stated that Coleman was in charge of three klaverns in Australia with a growing membership. Coleman has claimed that his Sydney klavern has 30 members.
