‘Polish race hate groups spark concern’<\/a> according to Dr Krystyna Bleszynska<\/em> of Warsaw University, addressing a race relations conference in the UK<\/a>, as Polish neo-Nazis and assorted other fascist scum reportedly ‘forge links’ with their comrades in the UK.<\/p>\n

Duh<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The BBC<\/a> news report (November 29) refers to the alleged closure of a neo-Nazi website — Redwatch Poland<\/strong> — and the arrest of one man in connection to its operation. In reality, the site was closed twice: first by ISP DreamHost<\/strong>, then another; first in July<\/a>, then again in August<\/a>. Needless to say — well, unless you’re a well-paid ‘expert’ on ‘race relations’, of course — it’s back up, on another server. Further, like Redwatch Poland, Redwatch UK<\/a><\/strong> continues on its merry way, as does Redwatch New Zealand<\/a><\/strong>. Both authorities in the UK (2004; June 2006) and New Zealand \/ Aotearoa<\/a> (August 2006) have declared their intention to ‘investigate’ the websites in question.<\/p>\n

Not unexpectedly, both have been found to be full of piss-and-wind; just like the neo-Nazis, really… and notwithstanding the fact that, for example, on Redwatch New Zealand, bonehead Nic Miller<\/em> even stooped so low as to post the address and photo of the home of a Holocaust survivor (among many others, especially Jews and\/or antifa); with the full and knowing co-operation of Google<\/a><\/strong>, natch.<\/p>\n

According to the BBC report:<\/p>\n

[Redwatch Poland] published details [photographs, names, addresses, descriptions, occupations] of people on its hate list — such as left-wing activists, homosexuals and members of ethnic minorities… [and] was [sic<\/em>] operated by the Polish wing of Blood and Honour<\/strong>, an international group which originated in the UK<\/a>. The site used a US-based server.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In Australia, convicted neo-Nazi criminal Ben Weerheym<\/em> — whose most recent foray into the exciting world of fascist activism has been ‘The Great Australian Bikini March’<\/a> — was threatened with prosecution under useless ‘Racial Vilification’ legislation by WA authorities in March, 2006<\/a>. But no: instead, WA authorities decided to test the untried law — introduced following, and in explicit reference to, the racist campaign by Weerheym’s former leader Jack van Tongeren<\/em> and his neo-Nazi Australian Nationalists Movement<\/strong> — by prosecuting an Aboriginal teenager<\/em>… unsuccessfully<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Also in Australia, Blood & Honour Australia<\/strong>, in conjunction with another bonehead gang, the Southern Cross Hammerskins<\/strong>, held a gig in September at The Birmingham Hotel<\/a><\/strong> in Fitzroy (Cnr. Johnston & Smith Streets | (03) 9417 2706 — ask for Gary<\/em>) in order to commemorate the death of B&H founder Ian Stuart Donaldson<\/a><\/em>. On the night of the gig, a local woman was accosted by seven boneheads, who insisted on her calling herself a ‘black cunt’ before allowing her to leave their charming — and incredibly brave — company. In the meantime, scabs<\/a> continue to drink and play at the fascist venue (although it should be noted that some have complained of harassment — sadly, Fitzroy can be a hazardous area at times, especially if one frequents The Birmy).<\/p>\n

As for Poland, the authorities were only compelled to act following the stabbing by boneheads of a Jewish anarchist profiled on the site, and, further — and crucially — an assault upon Poland’s Chief Rabbi<\/a>, Michael Schudrich<\/em>. Of course, in Russia<\/strong>, boneheads and other scum are able to operate with impunity, and with the full blessing of Vladimir Putin<\/em>‘s corrupt regime. Thus, a report by a human rights group in September stated that:<\/p>\n

So far this year, [at least<\/em>] 33 people have died and about 300 have been injured as a result of racially motivated attacks, as opposed to last year\u2019s total of 35 people killed and 393 injured… This year\u2019s racially motivated attacks, mostly carried out by [boneheads], have been reported in 32 out [of] Russia\u2019s 89 regions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The antifa opposition in Russia<\/a> — as elsewhere, spearheaded by anarchists<\/a> — are also subjected to violent assault and murder. Meanwhile, in the corporate\/state media, anarchists are routinely referred to as ‘terrorists’<\/a>, and boneheads<\/a> referred to as ‘skinheads’<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As Spinal Tap<\/a><\/strong> sang: The more it stays the same, the less it changes.<\/em><\/p>\n
