Considering joing the UAF. A way of engaging the BNP in the only sort of debate they understand.

Well you can hardly reason with those whos minds are so closed. If they actually have an active brain that is. They always look to me like extras from Sean of the Dead and make about as much sense

I dont want to go to a mosque. I want to go to a church. What is so great about an Islamic Britain? Bet you wouldnt be so pro mosque if it was YOUR head, arm, hand, tongue that sharia law demanded you lose! I wont wear a burkha. God likes my head just the way it is thanks. Britain has ALWAYS historically been easy prey for invasion. And your succumbing to other peoples values and not clinging to your own is EXACTLY why.

Actually, I dont want to go to either but I dont need to be a racist thug to not want an "Islamic Britain" or live under Sharia law

As for Britain being easy prey for invaders. Thats insulting to those who lost their lives during WWII. I thought we made a pretty good fist of that attempt.

I actually had Rome and Normandy and the Anglo-Saxons in mind! LOL!

And dang right I will never wear a burkha! My husband likes seeing my face!

Why are the BNP called rascist thugs? Because they inherently attract that sort? Or because it is a party made up of that sort. If that is the case, then why are they a legitimate party? I sort of resent being told what party I can belong to. I am an equal opportunity healer sort. Thats not democracy. Thats a dictatorship.

I dont think we're as anti French as you think. We joke about it all the time but we admire the french and how they stick up for themselves against the Eurocrats.

We're more French than you think. Its that whole Norman conquest thing.

I'm an atheist so no one hates the thought of religious fundamentalism more than me. It aint gonna happen. This firmly secular society wouldnt allow it, despite your fears of us being "easy prey"

Believe me I am very comfortable in my commitment to being an athiest and "proof" is nowhere on the horizon and I'm using very powerful binoculars. I've never been strongly opposed to people practicing their religion. Just against them forcing it and its consequenses upon me. Seperation of Church and state and all that

But thats another subject entirely, however much I'd love to highjack and disembowel this thread

Racism isnt about freedom of speech. Racism is about denying people, depending on their skin colour, the same rights and oportunties as every one else. Pure and simple. No opinions. Its wrong. We are all equal. Nothing should be denied to me, that which you would take for granted, purely because my skin colour isnt the "pure" pale superior tone that suits your strange tainted view of how the world should turn. Different doesnt mean inferior

Just because I have used the word "your" it isnt directed to anyone personally

Many members of C18 are now BNP supporters

eg:

Name: John 'Benny' Hill

Position: attended BNP meetings in Oldham on 24 June and 30 September 2001

July 1997 - Imprisoned for possession of threatening written material.



1992 - Described himself as the "Reverend" in the Church of the Creator, a hardline US nazi group.

1994 onwards - Active in Combat 18 attending concerts and meetings across the country.

5 May 2001 - Was photographed and videoed with Combat 18 supporters.

September 29 2001 - Held a Combat 18 meeting at his house.


and:

Adrian Marsden

Position: Branch organiser for Halifax

Has been active in Combat 18 and the International Third Position.

March 1999 - Raided by Special Branch as part of a nationwide swoop on C18 supporters around the country.

1999 - His PO Box and address was used as the regional contact point for the International Third Position (ITP).


I can go on. There are others. Please also note what the BNP are really about - according to their Fuhrer:

In April 2001 Griffin spoke to the American Friends of the BNP. He said, "So, what are we now doing with the British National Party? Well we tried to simplify its message in some ways and to make it a saleable message. So it's not white supremacy or racial civil war or anything like that, which is what we know in fact is going on, and we're not supremacists, we're white survivalists, even that frightens people. Four apple pie words, freedom, security, identity and democracy."

Jimbo: :wah: Probably!

Psychologically interesting - it really seems she'd rather go on being wrong and claiming she's right than admit she made a mistake. She's being forced into ever more intricate verbal gymnastics, but won't admit Griffin is a Holocaust denier despite seeing the video where he denies it.

I don't actually care if Griffin denied it, retracted it, re-inforced it, retracted it .... He is a Grade A pillock at the best of times.

Are they any less true for that?

There is an Adrian Marsden still on the leaked BNP membership list as an activist:

Personal information removed

Be one heck of a coincidence if it's a different Adrian Marsden listed as living in Halifax and an activist since there is only one person on the list named Adrian Marsden, but remotely possible. If he is the same bloke - which is very likely - are you denying he was a member of C18? On what grounds?

If Panorama is not an acceptable source, could you tell me what source you would accept as valid? Your tactic of attempting to cast doubt on any source which doesn't look good for your case is amusing, but not convincing.

So far it seems to me that your point about the BNP not being violent, that's c18, isn't standing up well. Many of them are the same people.

I would seriousley ask you to delete this post. The people who leaked the list of members onto the web have just been found guilty in court. You may not agree with the BNP, but your post is highly Illegal. You will get this forum into serious shyte otherwise.

This is what Griffin actually said at the time.

I am well aware that the orthodox opinion is that six million Jews were gassed and cremated and turned into lampshades. Orthodox opinion also once held that the world is flat.

I did not lie... I ASSUMED that as the ex member had been convicted of breaching the data act in court which made the list Illegal, you were adding to the Illegalities by posting a members personal details here.

Ask yourself this? The UAF has some violent members. Let's say one logs on here, see's the address of ther BNP member you have posted, gets drunk and decides to firebomb his house. Only the BNP member is out and It's his children that burn to death. That is not out of the realms of possibiliity in this present day clash with the UAF. How would you feel then?

He says orthodox opinion once held the world was flat - in other words, orthodox opinion can be wrong; and he says orthodox opinion is that 6,000,000 Jews were killed. How on earth do you read that as "Yes the Holocaust happened and 6,000,000 Jews died in the death camps"?

His first words in the video clip I saw were saying the gas chambers were a myth.

His first words in the video clip I saw were saying the gas chambers were a myth. He is not actually denying the Holocaust is he? He is pointing out in his statement (albiet crassly) that Orthodox opinion changes over the years. he says that Orthodox opinion is that 6,000,000 died in death camps. HIS opinion as a historian is that the numbers were far less. That is not denial.. he is questioning the propoganda of the numbers stated by other Jewish historians.

You might like to see a more complete version ofwhat he said:

"I am well aware that the orthodox opinion is that 6 million Jews were gassed and cremated and turned into lampshades. Orthodox opinion also also once held that the Earth was flat... I have reached the conclusion that the "extermination" tale is a mixture of Allied wartime propaganda, extremely profitable lie, and latter witch-hysteria."
The crowd: "Yes! We are all individuals!"

Lone voice: "I'm not."

Ok.. so where in that is actual hard Holocaust denial? He says. '

the "extermination" tale is a mixture of Allied wartime propaganda, extremely profitable lie, and latter witch-hysteria." He is refering to the numbers calimed by other historians... Not total denial. Where in that does it say ' I DENY THE HOLOCAUST'?

You're wriggling. But it's very hard to take the quotation as meaning anything but "The Holocaust (or Holohoax as Griffin calls it) never happened".

I beg to differ.. You are the one wriggling. Where does Griffin ever say 'THE HOLOCAUST NEVER TOOK PLACE'?

Getting away from all this bullshit about whether or not that moron Griffin is a Holocaust denier (which he is), where in the original article, is there any reference to race?

The article cited the English Defence League (which organisation can, at a stretch be called racist) and the Union Against Fascism, which is multi-cultural and multi-racial (and therefore not racist).

That being the case, why did this (so-called) newspaper play the "race" card?

That's the more important question.

He says the gas chambers are a myth (in another clip). He says the the "extermination tale" was an "extremely profitable lie" and "Allied wartime propaganda" (which it wasn't. Some information had reached the Allies about the death camps, but it wasn't really believed until the camps were overrun). What more do you want?
