IronBrotherhood eats his spinach; grows into respectable member of society

Way back when, in early 2005, the Australian wing of the New Zealand National Front began operating in Sydney, Austalia - and, depending on who you asked, they were allied to the openly neo-Nazi White Pride Coalition of Australia or they were allied to the less openly neo-Nazi Patriotic Youth League.

As it turned out, they were in bed with both, and FDB’s birth was largely as a response to this international co-operation between these Australian and New Zealand far right groups.

One of the senior figures in all this was Darren M.

Darren was the founder of NF Australia, was a member of the WPCA, and for a while was listed as the Sydney president of the PYL. The whole thing got very messy, with accusations of paedophilia from the NF (since retracted and apologised for) and threats of litigation from us, and eventually NF Australia was “blown out of the water” and it’s members mostly dropped out of the scene.

At the conclusion of the mess, Jim Saleam wrote a rather fanciful account of the affair which was disputed by both FDB and Darren. To put it bluntly, the mad old bastard made the whole thing up.

That was around a year ago. Besides the virus we were recently sent that appeared to come from Darren (the email address had been spoofed - it wasn’t actually him) we had not heard nothing from the guy since he dropped out of the scene, so it was very refreshing to recieve a message from him the other day telling us that he’d gotten his life back on track.

Campbell on Christchurch

TV3’s John Campbell takes an interesting look at race relations in New Zealand paying particular attention to Christchurch. Click here to view the video.

For the Aussies out there who remember the days when commercial news and current affairs contained things like ethics and standards, Campbell will be a blast from the past.

Take note of the fantastic ChCh bonehead footage, including rare pictures of former National Front leader Kyle Chapman WITHOUT a pie in his mouth.

Maori and National Front clash over Treaty

There were ugly scenes at the main Waitangi gathering in Manukau City on Monday with local Maori and the National Front coming close to blows.

The trouble started when National Front members began calling for the government to honour an english language version of the Treaty.

“Hobson’s lost final draft has been found and it is not being recognised by government,” said a National Front spokesperson.

Many Maori were incensed by the claims of the extreme right group.

However it was the sour point of what was a largely peaceful day - one which has, for the most part, brought New Zealanders together.

We’ll take a cup of kindness yet

For the sake of Auld Lang Syne, my dear.

As 2005 comes skidding to a halt, we the folk at FDB would like to take this opportunity to wish you and yours all the best for the upcoming year (provided you’re not a racist). If you’re a fash, we hope 2006 proves to be even worse for you than 2005 has been.

Naughty Nicky up to no good

Hopefully by now you all would have seen this AAP article concerning White Crusaders of the RAHOWA posters appearing in Wellington.

NZ posters call for Sydney-style riots

December 14, 2005 - 7:14PM

Inflammatory posters calling for New Zealanders to show “white power” and riot Australian-style have been put up at Wellington railway stations.

“If Sydney can do it so can we … let’s take back our land,” the posters said.

They were found pasted up at stations in Wellington’s western suburbs, Johnsonville and Khandallah.

The posters were attributed to a group, the “White Crusaders of the Racial Holy War”.

Police had no knowledge of the group, said Sergeant Maggie Windle.

The article goes on.

Mosque attackers off to jail

Word just through from Manukau District Court in Auckland.

Ross Baumgarten and Jason M the former National Front youth rep and webmaster respectively, have just been sentenced to one year and seven months in jail. They both received one year for the Mosque attacks and seven months for the firearms charges. The sentences are to be served concurrently, and the pair have both been granted leave to apply for home detention.

More information as it filters in, including a thorough description of the look on Jason M’s face as the judge read out the sentence.

UPDATE

In addition to the sentence mentioned yesterday, both Ross and Jason must also pay $5000 to the Mosques they attacked. This payment will be at $20 per week starting 21 days after they are released from jail.

While in the dock, Jason and Ross barely looked at each other or acknowledged the other’s existance. The only time there was any contact was when the Judge mentioned that Jason had written a full confession implicating Ross and thus had helped with the case against Ross - on hearing this, Ross looked at Jason but Jason simply kept his head down and looked away.

The Crown prosecutor was originally aiming for two years for the Mosque attacks, however the Judge decided to cut the sentance to 1 year owing to Jason and Ross’ young age and seeming remorse for their actions.

Molly and Bummy brought down by ‘the net’.

From the Sunday Star Times.:

My son the little race hate foot-soldier
27 November 2005

Tim Hume explains how Jason M and Ross Baumgarten, responsible for the attacks on Auckland mosques, used the internet to promote their views. It eventually proved their undoing.

‘A boy that’s really bad to the core of his being doesn’t say “I love you mum” every time he speaks to you from jail.’

The mother of a teenager responsible for race hate attacks on Auckland mosques says her loner son was brainwashed by the National Front in online chatrooms.

The NF will self destruct in 10,9,8,7…

One of the fundamental characteristics of all race-hate organisations is their propensity to self destruct within a two year time-frame. The New Zealand National Front is certainly no exception.

Molly and Ross in court once more

Jason M and Ross Baumgarten were in court again on Wednesday, for the second to last time. The pair have pleaded guilty to charges stemming from their attacks on 8 Auckland Mosques and Islamic cultural centres following the London bombings, and their BB Gun drive-by shooting a short time later.

The two will face sentencing in the Auckland district court on November 29th, with Jason on bail in Gore in the meantime and Ross in custody. FDB isn’t sure which punishment is worse!

We want the Thermos and we want it alive!

Fight dem back received a bewildering phone call this afternoon from members of the Wellington press saying that a random group of neo-Nazis were planning to stage a demonstration at the Cenotaph tomorrow morning at 11am.

Considering that the last few NF demo’s have been cancelled at the last minute and that their most recent demo that did go ahead constituted two men, two flags and a thermos - Fight dem back and associated groups have decided NOT to organise a counter-demo.

We repeat, FDB will not be organising a counter-demo to the five people expected to rock up to tomorrow’s NF demo at the Wellington cenotaph.

Granted, if people want to go down there at 11am to try and catch a glimpse of the thermos, they’re obviously entitled to do so.

FDB will pay a five dollar bounty to anyone who can present us with photos of the thermos. If you’re really good and manage to get a photo of yourself with the thermos, you will score an autographed copy of No Retreat by Dave Hann and Steve Tilzey.
