    This very relevant article by a knowledgeable veteran of the British
    Right throws light on ongoing flirt of organised Jewry with some
    elements of the Far Right who attempt “to ingratiate itself into Jewry's
    good books by the dumping the BNP's foundation core polices:
    "anti-semitism" , opposition to coloured immigration, rejection of
    race-mixing and support for repatriation; and by replacing them with an
    anti-Muslim, anti-Islam policy which is being extended incrementally to
    encompass an explicitly pro-Israel line.”

    Jewry Builds Bridge with Far Right

    By Martin Webster

    The horrible Melanie Phillips whose snarling snapping contributions to
    BBC Radio 4's 'The Moral Maze' remind one of the Irish description: "a
    tongue like a hedge-clipper" published an article (below) where she
    picks up on the attempt by the British National Party under Nick Griffin
    to ingratiate itself into Jewry's good books by the dumping the BNP's
    foundation core polices: "anti-semitism" , opposition to coloured
    immigration, rejection of race-mixing and support for repatriation; and
    by replacing them with an anti-Muslim, anti-Islam policy which is being
    extended incrementally to encompass an explicitly pro-Israel line.

    Phillips purports to be horrified by this "grotesque tactical two-step
    around the issue of the Jews" and tries to give the impression that this
    courtship dance is wholly uninvited by and unwelcome to Jewry. But
    either this woman has not done her homework, or she has chosen to ignore
    the cultivation of the BNP by Barbara Amiel, Zionist harpie wife of
    'Lord' Conrad Black, and by Rabbi Meyer Schiller of New York.

    I was informed in April this year by a senior official of the BNP that
    Griffin had recently taken a telephone call from Amiel. You are more
    aware than I of Amiel's range of political contacts at the top of on the
    "far Right" of Zionist politics, within and outwith Israel . After
    introducing herself to Griffin , she commenced her dialogue with the
    words: "Isn't it about time we started talking to each other...."

    I have published references to the Amiel-Griffin discussion twice this
    year in my e-bulletin 'Electronic Watch on Zion ', which circulates
    widely in BNP circles. No denial has been forthcoming from the BNP
    leadership. Instead an article appeared in the BNP magazine 'Identity'
    condemning those who are "Judeo-obsessives" , to which Phillips refers.

    So far as Rabbi Schiller is concerned, he has been maintaining a
    persistent campaign to cultivate elements of the "racist far Right" in
    both the USA and Britain for more than a decade now. Schiller's first
    contact in the UK was Patrick Harrington, who led the last remnant of
    the "old" National Front in the later 1980s and early 1990s (to which
    both I and Griffin both belonged in the 1970s/early 1980s). It took
    Schiller some time to realise that the NF had virtually evaporated and
    that Harrington was not a significant figure.

    But before that realisation Schiller had invited Harrington and his then
    side-kick Tony Hailey to New York , where they were put up for free in a
    hotel owned by the Orthodox denomination which also runs Schiller's
    yeshiva.

    At some stage in the mid-1990s Hailey initiated a meeting between myself
    and Rabbi Schiller at The Grosvenor Hotel, by Victoria Station, London .
    There were other onlookers to the discussion including Tony Hancock, a
    well known "historical revisionist" printer and publisher in the UK .
    Schiller was in the full drag of an Orthodox rabbi. He declined my offer
    of a whisky and would only drink mineral water.

    In essence, Schiller's line was that as we were all interested in White
    survival (in which "White" category he presumably allocated the Jews) in
    the face of the onrush from the dark multitudes; and as the students in
    his yeshiva liked nothing more than marching up and down holding flags
    aloft behind a marching band, then we all had lots more in common than
    we had differences, and shouldn't we get together in a common cause?

    I was rather insulted at the low pitch of his approach, but it said much
    for the level of discussion he must have had with the likes of
    Harrington & Co. Tactful as ever, I suppressed my giggles and refrained
    from imparting to him the image which flitted into my mind: serried
    ranks of skinny, pasty-faced yeshiva students with kaftans, wide-brimmed
    hats and sidelocks, holding up American flags and "Juden Erwache!"
    banners, goose-stepping behind the regimental band of the Leibstandarte
    SS thumping out the Badenweilermarsch!

    My response was along these lines:

    It was the Jews who actively encouraged the invasion of Britain by the
    Third World . I recounted my 1970 meeting with Gerald Smith, Chief
    Reporter of the 'Jewish Chronicle', who explained to me why Jewry needed
    the "protection" of a multi-racial society and why it would "fight to
    the death" any British nationalist group which sought to reverse the
    development of a multi-racial society, even if the group had no policy
    against the Jews; even if it thought of itself as pro-Jewish.

    I went on to point out that:

    1) It was the Board of Deputies of British Jews, "the representative
    body of British Jewry", whose published aims and objectives include the
    promotion and protection of the interests of Israel, which produced the
    first draft of what became "The Race Relations Act" (under the working
    title "The Group Libel Bill").

    The Race Relations Act, subsumed into the Public Order Act, attempts to
    criminalise criticism of any of the ethnic minority components of the
    multi-racial society, and in particular, any criticism of the Jews.
    Every increasingly oppressive amendment to that law has been drafted and
    promoted by the Board of Deputies.

    2) The Anti Nazi League, which laid violent siege to every lawful NF
    activity from 1977 onwards, was set up as a joint initiative of the
    Board of Deputies, the Labour Party and the supposedly "anti-Zionist"
    Socialist Workers Party for the stated purpose of trying to "smash" the
    NF before the impending general election.

    3) Jewish organisations and individuals, religious and secular, and the
    media entities which they owned or influenced, maintain a relentless
    campaign of pressure to promote not just Third World immigration into
    Britain, but also race-mixing up to and including miscegenation between
    the "host" community and their uninvited "guests" -- a process which can
    only lead to the destruction of the British people as a distinct ethnic
    group.

    4) Despite this promotion of multi-racialism among the gentiles of
    Britain, Jewish organisations, not least the Board of Deputies, maintain
    an equally active but much less publicised campaign to persuade Jews not
    to "marry-out" even with we native Brits (I suppose we should be
    grateful!) let alone with the Coloured incomers. In addition, all manner
    of projects are sustained to arouse nationalist sentiments among Jews
    FOCUSED ON ISRAEL, including holiday trips to Israel for Jewish
    youngsters to enable them to "bond" with the Jewish state.

    5) Israel with its "Law of the Return" and other policies operates as a
    racial-nationalist state and is perpetrating ethnic cleansing against
    the indigenous people of Palestine . The policies of Israel are akin to
    the fundamental precept of the Third Reich's 1935 Nuremberg Race Laws:
    "Only Members of the Race may be Citizens of the State".

    Thus Jewry is operating a deeply cynical and hypocritical policy:
    "Racialism and Nationalism for US, but not for YOU!" This policy
    reflected deeply ingrained Jewish hostility for ALL gentiles. It is also
    an echo of Adolf Hitler's comment: "National Socialism is not for
    export".

    In the face of this, how should intelligent racial-nationalists in White
    gentile lands react to the kind of simplistic overtures for alliances
    with Jewry which he had just advanced?

    Jewry had inflicted a race problem on Britain as part of its endless war
    against gentiles of all colours and stripes. That was a grievous blow
    against the British nation. It may prove to be a mortal blow. Why should
    the Whites of Britain suddenly identity with -- and come to the aid of
    -- the Jews of Israel to help them achieve a final solution to the race
    war they brought on their own heads by the creation of the Zionist
    state?

    Schiller only took me up on one of my points: the Nuremberg Race Laws.
    He deprecated them, saying that "they only served to divide people
    unnecessarily" . He did not, however, comment on the similarity between
    those German Nazi laws and the laws in Israel such as the Law of the
    Return.

    (Later, Tony Hancock told me that after the Nuremberg race Laws were
    enacted, Rabbi Prinz, the leading pro-Zionist rabbi of German Jewry,
    positively welcomed the development, saying to the effect: "This is
    exactly what we Jews want: protection of our identity." I would have
    welcomed the opportunity to ask Rabbi Schiller: "Do Jews sing a
    different song to that now?" and to hear his response.)

    When our discussions were winding down, Schiller said something to me
    which revealed much about his mission and indicated that he was not a
    'loner'. He said: "I'm not on my own home ground here. I feel it is
    incumbent on me to report to the Board of Deputies that I have had this
    meeting with you and what you have said. Do you have any objection?"

    I told him I had no objections, and that I was sure the Board was fully
    aware of my views. And so we parted.

    Since then Rabbi Schiller has been cultivating both the American and the
    British "racist" right via the American Renaissance group which has
    annual meetings in New York . American Renaissance is not a hard line
    racialist organisation; it might be more accurate to define it as "right
    wing conservative" .

    I believe Schiller addressed the group last year, and/or the year
    before. Nick Griffin was another of the platform speakers, as was the
    American racist and anti-Zionist Dave Duke, whose critique of "Jewish
    racial supremacism" earned him angry heckling from Jewish members of the
    audience.

    I get the impression that Griffin and Schiller will be invited back to
    address other American Renaissance conferences, but perhaps not Duke. I
    am told that Griffin and Schiller engaged in more private discussions
    and got on well together. It may be as a result of this that the word
    went out to Barbara Amiel and her circle, prompting her phone call to
    Griffin earlier this year.

    So the line Melanie Phillips is putting out to her 'Jewish Chronicle'
    readership that the BNP's "grotesque tactical two-step around the issue
    of the Jews" has been uninvited and is unwelcome is not in my view a
    product of ignorance on her part about what has been going on for some
    time.

    It is disinformation to the Jewish rank-and file and to gentile
    commentators in the mainstream media, who may be a bit squeamish at the
    thought that Griffin 's little dance is being done in the expectation of
    finding a partner following a series of discreet flirtatious come-ons.

    Jewish Chronicle - Friday 10th November 2006.

    The left and their neo-fascist friends

    Melanie Phillips

    The left has seized on the BNP's absurd attempt to cosy up to Jews in
    order to smear Jews and Zionists as allies of the neo-fascists.

    The unholy alliance between left-wingers and Islamic fascists — "We are
    all Hizbollah now" — has been much discussed. Less noticed, but no less
    remarkable, is that both Islamists and their left-wing allies are almost
    indistinguishable, in their discourse of hate towards Jews and Israel ,
    from white supremacists and neo-Nazis.

    Now yet another twist is being given to this union of unspeakables. The
    British left and the neo-fascist British National Party are engaged in a
    grotesque tactical two-step around the issue of the Jews.

    In an attempt to shed its thuggish image and win votes, the BNP
    leadership has repeatedly claimed that it has renounced the party's
    defining antisemitism. In the BNP newsletter, party theorist John Bean
    criticised the "Judeo-obsessives" in the ranks.

    With no sense of irony, he wrote that it was foolish to tar all Jews as
    villains when "only some of them" were wrong-doers, and that they should
    be treated "like any other foreign people" and as neither "intrinsically
    evil nor always the enemy."

    Don't you just love that "always"? Of course, the whole thing is beyond
    satire. Visceral Jew-haters such as the BNP don't suddenly see the
    light; indeed, as is plain from the above, even the language they use in
    attempting to disavow the prejudice is riddled with it. They remain as
    obsessed with "the Jewish question" as they ever were. The only thing
    that has changed is their strategy-

    They are trying to bury their reputation for thuggery and neo-fascism,
    and to pose instead as a respectable nationalist party defending
    Britain against the threat to its way of life. It won't wash. Like all
    fascist parties, the BNP manipulate for their own ends genuine concerns
    that the political class has brushed aside. The concern today is radical
    Islamism. But the BNP's platform against Muslims masks a racist
    hostility towards all immigrants, foreigners and Jews.

    Despite the manifest absurdity of the BNP's attempt to cosy up to the
    Jews, however, the left has seized on its manoeuvrings in order to smear
    Jews and Zionists as being the neo-fascists' natural allies.

    In the Communist Party's Morning Star newspaper last September, Geoff
    Brown cited both the BNP's support for Israel against Hizbollah, and
    chairman Nick Griffin's support for the Jewish writer Bat Ye'or, who has
    warned

    of an Islamist takeover of Europe , as evidence of a Jewish/fascist
    axis. As was clear from this article, such a vicious attempt to link
    the Jews with the fascists was prompted in large measure by an attempt
    to bury the link between Islamic fascism and the left.

    At a deeper level, however, it also solves a major intellectual problem
    for left-wingers. Abhorrence of the Holocaust is a defining issue for
    their self-image as anti-fascists and anti-racists. But hatred of Israel
    , founded on the ashes of the Shoah, has come to be no less defining
    an issue for that same self-image. With such a fundamental
    contradiction, something has to give.

    One way to do it is subliminally to remove the Jews from the Holocaust.
    Since the left claim that the Jews of Israel have now turned into Nazis
    and that Muslims are the new Jews, it is a logical next step to invent
    an alliance between the Jews and the BNP — with the neo-fascists eagerly
    playing along with this odious fiction.

    There is thus a fearful symmetry. The BNP believe Holocaust denial is
    essential to remove a major encumbrance to the destruction of
    democracy. The left have now invented their own form of Holocaust denial
    to remove a major encumbrance to the destruction of Israel .

    The parallels go wider and deeper. Thus the former BNP chairman John
    Tyndall has ranted about "The wrath and hatred of organised Jewry" which
    was on display in the "insane war in Iraq " being waged in the
    interests of, guess who, Israel .

    Thus John Bean wrote: "None of this is to deny, of course, that Jews
    like Paul Wolfowitz, who engineered a war in which British soldiers are
    dying to prop up a New World Order that plans the liquidation of Britain
    , are complete bastards." Thus Nick Griffin has written that the
    neo-cons are "an unofficial overseas agitprop department of Israel 's
    ruling Likud party."

    Now where else, I wonder, have we heard this kind of garbage about Iraq
    and Wolfowitz and the right-wing Jewish cabal controlling American
    foreign policy? As Andrew McKibbin remarked about Griffin 's comment,
    in another article in the Morning Star: "One could read the above words
    in the Guardian!"

    Never was a truer word spoken. The fact is that the left and the
    neo-fascists share more than either would care to admit. The Jews are
    the victims of both of them.
