RUTHFULLY YOURS

BNP Legal Director Lee Barnes is back to his old tricks: reproducing an article taken from an anti-Semitic website, written by a man who describes himself as a ‘proud self-hating Jew’.

The website is Rense.com – find out more here.

The self-hating Jew is Gilad Atzmon – find out more here.

Barnes believes in ‘revolution‘, class conflict, and ‘anti-Zionism‘. The irony is that if he would only drop the BNP affiliation, he would be welcomed with open arms by the far-Left.

Edmund Standing adds:

What Barnes refers to as ‘Zionism’ in the comments section below and elsewhere is, of course, nothing to do with what Zionism actually is. Take these recent claims of his:

When the Tories get into power Israel will run Britain,

At the moment Israel via the US runs Britain, but after Camerons ‘Conservative Friends of Israel’ Cabal are elected into power solely by a sickened British people who cannot vote Labour (and who are brainwashed by the Zionist dominated media not to vote BNP) then the Zionist entity will control Britains political system directly.

Next stop will be WW3 against Iran, the latest insane venture of the Zionists in their evil quest for global domination by Israel and its puppet America.

Barnes claims that Israel ‘runs Britain’, refers to Israel as ‘the Zionist entity’, and believes ‘Zionists’ have an ‘evil quest for global domination’.

Again, this has nothing to do with Zionism. The First Zionist Congress (1897) stated that the aim of Zionist movement was ‘to establish a home for the Jewish people in Palestine secured under public law’. This aim was achieved, hence the State of Israel. One who is supportive of the establishment of the State of Israel and argues for the continuing existence of that State is, broadly speaking, a Zionist. Simple.

Barnes’s ridiculous notion of ‘Zionism’ is drawn from anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, which claim the existence of an international effort by Jews, or a Jewish elite, to dominate the world. The Protocols of Zion is an obvious example of this kind of material.

No matter what Barnes may claim, saying that ‘Israel runs Britain’ or ‘Israel will run Britain’ and that ‘Zionists’ have an ‘evil quest for global domination’ is simply a rehashing of the Jewish World Conspiracy theory. Yes, he uses the usual defence of saying ‘many Zionists are Christians’ and that many ‘Zionist puppets’ are gentiles, but underneath it all, and quite clear to anyone with a passing knowledge of 19th and 20th Century anti-Semitism, lies the same old narrative of evil Jews trying to take over the world. It was anti-Semitic then, and it’s anti-Semitic now.

And one other thing while Barnes is around…

In June 2009, Barnes stated of the National Front:

The National Front is an organisation for those people who are Street Activists, not political activists.

When it sticks to street activism it does a superb job…

The National Front must become the Nationalist counterpart to the Leftist UAF.

The NF should be organising massive Armistice Day celebrations, demonstrations, festivals, rock concerts, marches, cultural events and many other nationalist cultural events, not wasting theit time on electioneering.

… this is precisely the role that the NF would do best.

The National Front has links to a number of extremist organisations and individuals. It openly states it seeks to politically represent ‘the B&H skin’. B&H is ‘Blood & Honour’, the international neo-Nazi network currently being investigated by the police and the Home Office.

Blood & Honour supporters were invited by the NF to attend this year’s NF Remembrance Sunday ‘march’ and wreath laying – having enjoyed an evening of hate music the night before hosted by ‘B&H South London Division’.

Barnes:

Will you now admit you were wrong to describe the NF as people who do ‘a superb job’?

Will you now condemn the National Front?
