There is no such thing as a ‘moderate’ anti-immigrant group

Like the last “moderate” anti-immigrant group the Republican Party championed, Youth for Western Culture, the leadership of the “Minutemen” have been arrested for serious violent crimes against minorities. This time, it’s multiple murder. This is what “respectable” racism looks like.

From KVOA-TV, Tuscon, Arizona:

Home invasion suspects tied to border group

Two of three people arrested in a southern Arizona home invasion that left a little girl and her father dead had connections to a Washington state anti-illegal immigration group that conducts border watch activities in Arizona.

Jason Eugene Bush, 34, Shawna Forde, 41, and Albert Robert Gaxiola, 42, have been charged with two counts each of first-degree murder and other charges, said Sheriff Clarence Dupnik of Pima County, Ariz.

The trio are alleged to have dressed as law enforcement officers and forced their way into a home about 10 miles north of the Mexican border in rural Arivaca on May 30, wounding a woman and fatally shooting her husband and their 9-year-old daughter.

Their motive was financial, Dupnik said.

“The husband who was murdered has a history of being involved in narcotics and there was an anticipation that there would be a considerable amount of cash at this location as well as the possibility of drugs,” Dupnik said.

Forde is the leader of Minutemen American Defense, a small border watch group, and Bush goes by the nickname “Gunny” and is its operations director, according to the group’s Web site.

Rhythm needs your help

Rhythm Turner is a lesbian musician from San Diego, in the United States.

After a gig in Mission Beach on May 14th, Rhythm fell victim to a brutal attack by a man whose motivations were based in homophobia, leaving Rhythm with two very serious facial fractures and an inability to perform musically. The attacker was arrested for felony assault, but is not currently being charged with a hate crime.
Rhythm needs reconstructive surgery to fix her fractures, but as a full-time student and musician she has no health insurance.

If you’d like to help with these costs, please consider a contribution via this paypal link.

And you can listen to her band, Rhythm and the Method here.

From everyone at FightDemBack, we wish Rhythm a speedy recovery, and we ask anyone who can to help donate to get her face fixed. The United States, for all its wealth, has a health care system that does not provide adequate health coverage for people on low incomes without health insurance, so Rhythm needs all the help she can get, because as a professional performer a broken face can mean the difference between a gig and going hungry.

Toben wins UK fight, Aussie fight remains

From The Australian:

Fredrik Toben wins UK fight over extradition to Germany
Peter Wilson, Europe correspondent
November 21, 2008

AUSTRALIAN Holocaust denier Fredrik Toben has won his legal battle with the German Government after it ended its attempt to extradite him from Britain.

German prosecutors have withdrawn their appeal against a British court’s refusal last month to extradite the controversial historian, who was detained at Heathrow airport on a European arrest warrant for denying the extent of Adolf Hitler’s crimes against the Jews.

Dr Toben’s solicitor Kevin Lowry-Mullins said early today that he had signed a consent order with the German Government to end the action against his client.

The Good Ship BNP is a Leaky Vessel

    Update : The leak has become a media torrent. And the list has gone viral. Such is the nature of the intarwebs I guess. Fuehrer Griffin and his Party are threatening use of privacy laws they’ve apparently vowed to abolish, while an article in the Press Gazette also references Redwatch: Seven journalists appear on leaked BNP member list, November 19, 2008. A naughty police officer is also under investigation — membership of the BNP being against police regulations. Dunno if the same rule applies to the armed forces, prison guards and vicars but. As for joining the BNP: “What do I get for joining the British National Party? BNP members not only get the satisfaction of knowing that they are contributing directly to the vital work of building the Party. You will also receive a plastic credit card style membership card and our monthly membership bulletin ‘British Nationalist’. Membership runs for 12 calendar months from the issuing of your card.” As an added Bonus!, your name, home address, phone number, email address and even occupation and hobbies will be published online.

Cor blimey, the BNP membership list got leaked!

http://bnpmemberslist.blogspot.com/ was one location where the list was published, but it’s since been closed. However…

    http://cryptome.org/bnp-members.zip

There’s obviously been a fair bit of wailing and gnashing of teeth following this latest debacle, but the person (or persons) responsible have yet to be identified. In the running are filthy red hackers, or possibly ex-BNP Treasurer John Walker. Jilted John got the arse recently after clashing with BNP fuehrer Nick Griffin, and speculation is rife among fascist trolls on teh Intertubes that he may have enacted his rewenge by leaking the list.

Who knows?

Neo-Nazis want fascist visit… to prevent Cronulla Mk II

Bit weird, really, cos they rather enjoyed it the first time around.

From the Age:

Visa fight over fascist visit
Connie Levett
November 16, 2008

DENYING a visa to British fascist leader Nick Griffin, who has a conviction for inciting racial hatred, will only increase the likelihood of Cronulla-style racial conflict, his supporters say.

Mr Griffin, head of the far-right-wing British National Party, has applied to visit Australia to tackle the issue of “the demographic genocide … caused by large-scale immigration of people from the Third World”.

Darrin Hodges, the NSW head of the extreme Australian Protection Party, which is backing his visit, said: “Having a full and frank debate was more helpful than not … and suppressing the debate leads to events like Cronulla.”

He said Mr Griffin would speak at private forums in Sydney and Melbourne.

However, Jewish lobby groups opposed to the December speaking tour by Mr Griffin — a Holocaust denier with long-standing links to far-right-wing groups throughout Europe — believe the free speech argument has to be balanced against the harm done to local communities.

MP backing for Holocaust denier

From the BBC:

MP backing for ‘Holocaust denier’

British courts should refuse to act on an EU arrest warrant requesting the extradition of an alleged Holocaust denier, a senior Lib Dem has said.

Australian citizen Dr Gerald Toben was remanded in custody after his arrest by British Police at Heathrow Airport.

German authorities allege Dr Toben published material online “of an anti-semitic and/or revisionist nature”.

But home affairs spokesman Chris Huhne said holocaust denial is not a crime in the UK and he should not be extradited.

Muslim Massacre

From the Department of I-Want-A-Fatwa-And-I-Want-One-Now! comes this story about a game called ‘Muslim Massacre’, designed by some bloke from Brisbane.

Oops.

Said designer has since thought better of his game, taken it down, and issued an apology:

I would like to make a public apology for any offense that I might have caused through releasing this game, and to Muslims in particular. My intentions when releasing this project were to mock the foreign policy of the United States and the commonly held belief in the United States that Muslims are a hostile people to be held with suspicion. I would like to make it clear that I have never shared such a belief and my intention was to mock those who actually do believe these things.

It quickly became obvious to me that releasing this game did not achieve its intended effect and instead only caused hurt to hospitable, innocent people. I believe removing this game and website will do much more to attain my desired effect than leaving it on the internet, so I am doing just that.

I would like to ask for the forgiveness of Muslims around the world and to make it clear that I did not release this game with ill intent. So without further ado, I would like to say that I am truly apologetic for what I have done and will take full responsibility for all offense that has been caused. I can only hope that any further misgivings can be laid to rest.

Sincerely,
~ Sigvatr

Thankfully for angry Aryans everywhere, Martin Fletcher of Downunder Newslinks (”Australian news for White people”) has saved the game from oblivion by making a copy of it available to all and sundry on his own rather, er… “cranky” website. Martin himself is a former devotee of James Saleam, but is currently associated with the Australian Protectionist Party, whose disco forum he co-admins with failed Sutherland Shire candidate Darrin Hodges. (Note that APP aren’t exactly ‘down with Mohammed’). Martin is very fond of game-playing, and previous to Muslim Massacre, placed the laff riot that was the Cronulla 2230 game on his website (Cronulla game site gets zapped, Asher Moses, October 18, 2006).
