The trick is to threaten to kill anyone who dares speak out against your fascist bullshit, take fifteen dexys and wash the lot down with a tasty VB longneck…
Ben Weerheym and Daniel Klavins wave to the camera.
Ben Weerheym (the hip-hop loving, part-Jewish neo-Nazi) is a little bit upset that his precious right to free speech has been infringed upon by the Jewish-Controlled-Media conspiracy against him. Nevermind that he uses the threat of violence and intimidation against anyone who dares speak out against morons who graffiti war widow’s retirement villages and hassle schoolkids - surely a far more tangible type of censorship than requiring a corporation operating in the Commonwealth of Australia to comply with the laws of that Commonwealth.
Classy canwork, Benno!
If you didn’t want to be associated with Redwatch NZ, you shouldn’t have worked with Miller on your wee little campaign. You definitely shouldn’t have given him info and recieved info in exchange. And you most definitely shouldn’t be posting on Stormfront as REDWATCH NZ. That’s just a friendly little tip from us to you.
If you didn’t want to be called a Nazi, you probably shouldn’t have sieg heiled in front of swastikas, painted them freaking everywhere over Perth, and joined a succession of violent neo-Nazi groups - The Australian Nationalist Movement, the White Pride Coalition of Australia and then the Australia First Party. It might be worth noting that the leaders of the first are currently awaiting trial, and one of the leaders of the second is being investigated by an anti-terrorism task force in relation to the distribution of bomb-making pamphlets (Further attacks on free speech, we’re sure). Joining these groups is not a good way to stay out of trouble. Perhaps the Girl Guides are more up your alley.
There are a few extra points we should make about one particularly weird passage in Ben’s little rant:
Of course Stokes’ group [FDB] would NEVER do that now would they? They wouldn’t call up someone’s work and try to intimidate their employer into firing them would they? They wouldn’t threaten to get teenagers beaten up by unionists would they? They wouldn’t give journalists peoples full sames and the suburb that “we think he lives in” would they?
Ringing employers and intimidating them into firing people: We haven’t done that. They’ve rung us though. Even some potential employers have given us a buzz after they’ve done a bit of googling. We can’t control who gets in touch, sorry. Perhaps the reason you can’t hold down a job has more to do with you being a racist moron and less to do with a grand conspiracy against you.
Giving journalists people’s full names and suburbs: Surely any proud “patriot” is proud enough of what they stand for that they would be happy to take full credit for it. Surely, they wouldn’t want WhiteWolf88 to get all the props for their eloquent fantasies about gassing Jews and Arabs.
And finally, threatening teenagers?
We wouldn’t comment on that if we were you, Ben. We understand you’re not the brightest flame on the menorah so perhaps you don’t recall, but the whole “threatening to get teenagers beaten up” thing was an invention of YOUR MOB (the Australia First Party and the associated White Pride Coalition of Australia), and the young whippersnappers in question say that it is YOUR MOB (the AFP & the WPCA) that threatened to kill them. Not an old Nazi sitting in his bookstore in Tempe making up crap off the top of his head. Those claims come from the actual people involved. And your mob weren’t threatening to beat them up. They were threatening to kill them.
We wouldn’t keep on bringing it up, if we were you. It might make people think you’re not as dedicated to free speech as you say you are.
A relevant blast from the past:
Warning over racist website - The Australian:
The blog site, “avoiceofdissent”, has been used by members of Australia’s “White Nationalist” group to threaten physical violence and single out targets for intimidation by publishing their photographs, telephone numbers and addresses. Posts include a detailed fantasy of rounding up Lebanese men in a bus, then filling the interior with poisonous exhaust fumes.
“Imagine the sight, if you will, of all those oily dune coons gasping for air and clawing vainly at the windows,” the post reads.
After receiving a written warning from the Uniting Church of Australia that the site might breach Australian state and federal law, Google, the company that hosts the site, added a disclaimer that stated the content might be “hateful”.
And a few articles about how Redwatch is preserving free speech in other countries:
Alec McFadden was dozing in his armchair when a loud bang on his front door brought him to his senses with a jolt. Looking out of the window of his Wallasey home, he saw a young man half slumped in the driveway. “I couldn’t see his face but he looked like he was in some sort of trouble, like he needed help,” says McFadden. “I opened the door just a bit to ask if he was OK and he threw himself at me and started hitting me around the head.”
What McFadden did not realise at the time was that he was not being punched but stabbed. “I think it went on for a couple of minutes before I managed to get the door closed. I turned round and my daughter was screaming. It was only then, as I put my hand to my face and felt the blood, that I realised what had happened.”
Scottish politicians and activists have been warned they are in danger of attacks by a neo-nazi organisation whose website has been blamed for inciting assaults against anti-racism campaigners.
Redwatch members and sympathisers have been blamed for a number of attacks, including the serious assault of a TUC leader, accused of following campaigners and journalists to their homes, firebombing cars and intimidating other individuals using phone calls, hate mail and email.
Attempted murder of an anti-fascist - Indymedia Poland:
A few days ago, at 6pm on the evening of the 16th of May, at the corner of Tamka and Dobrej streets in Warsaw, an antifascist activist was attacked by two nazis, with clear intentions to kill him. They had been following him, and suddenly, one of them stepped in front on him and sprayed him with pepper gas. Then the other one stabbed him in his back with a 30cm long knife. Maciek fell on the ground and was kicked by the nazis for a while, with them shouting “We’ll kill you, you leftist motherfucker!”
