From: [sender's userid removed, and email header trimmed] To: hlist@nizkor.org Date: Sun, 29 Mar 1998 14:02:23 +0100 Subject: German Neo-Nazi Press: Nation & Europa Dear list members and friends, This time I've gone through issues no 11/12 of November/December 1997 to no 3 of March 1998 of the monthly neo-Nazi pamphlet 'Nation & Europa' (13,000 subscription, 15,000 printed issues). Until 1990 this journal's title was 'Nation Europa', it was founded already in 1951 by former SS Sturmbannfuehrer Arthur Ehrhardt und Herbert Boehme. According to investigations of the British Secret Service in connection with the Naumann affair (1949-1953), the publication 'Nation Europa' must be seen as a direct result of the past 1945 efforts of European neo-Fascists together with leading SS men to build up a European network of neo-Fascists. Money comes from the Swiss neo-Nazi Gaston-Armand Amaudruz, from Maurice Bardeche, Jean Bauvard as well as from the French bankers Albertini and Guy Lemonier. The necessary know-how is provided by former Reichspressechef Helmut Suendermann (chief press speaker of the Nazi regime), followed by Gert Sudholt, who holds a huge syndicate of publishing companies, and associated businesses. After Arthur Ehrhard deceased in 1971, Peter Dehoust has been the chief editor since then. There are a few other names I would like to mention in that connection, because some of them are playing quite a vital role in the German neo-Nazi movement up to this day. Editors: Adolf von Thadden (NPD), Harald Neubauer (NPD, DVU, REP, Deutsche Liga fuer Volk und Heimat, Michael Kuehnen said that Neubauer also used to be a member of the NSDAP/AO of Lauck); Share holders: Peter Dehoust 57%, Hans Epprecht 1%, Karl Gueltig 9%, Klausdieter Ludwig 6%, Lieselotte Dold 5%, Holle Grimm 1%, Heimgard Dehoust 12%, Almut Spaeth 1%, Nation Europa Verlags GmbH 6%, Nation Europa-Freunde e.V. 2%. Authors: Felix Buck (!), Franz Schoenhuber, Helmut Schroecke, Karl Richter, Emil Schlee, Guenter Deckert, Alain de Benoist, Bernhard Willms, Gerd-Klaus Kaltenbrunner, Hans-Dietrich Sander, Hans-Ulrich Rudel, Armin Mohler, Winfried von Oven, Rolf Kosiek, Henning Eichberg, Bruno Megret, Yvan Blot, Karl Dillen, Willy Freson, Juergen Hatzenbichler, Jean-Marie Le Pen, Andreas Moelzer. <1> Issue no 11-12/97 ----------------- reports on a meeting organized by Nation-Europa-Freunde e.V. in Amberg, Bavaria on November 2, 1997 with about 500 participants, which seems to be extremely exaggerated. From other European countries: Frank Vanhecke, member of the European Parliament und chairman of the Vlaams Blok; Yavan Blot, member of the European Parliament and Alsace chairman of the Front National who presented a message from Jean-Marie Le Pen, saying that the German 'patriots' should unite the same as the Vlaams Blok did and the Front National. Besides Franz Schoenhuber, Alfred Mechtersheimer of the "Deutschland-Bewegung" spoke to the audience. I find this part very interesting, since Mechtersheimer still calls himself "Friedensforscher" (peace researcher), but actually has drifted from his very conservative point of views which he was able to present for a very short time within the Green Party, to the extreme right. Many activists of the far right actually have joined the Green party in the past and tried to gain influence there. Central topic of this issue is "leftist" movements bashing in general, mixing the 1968 student revolt with Soviet suppression in Hungary (Le Pen, p. 5). Former Swiss Nationalrat Dr. med. Jean-Jaques Hegg complains heavily about the Jewish claims regarding Swiss bank accounts, talks of the "One World" conspiracy against neutral countries ("neutrals bashing"). The sterilization of about 60,000 Swedish mentally ill or retarded women is mentioned in that connection, and the reports in the American press on that case, which according to the author do not mention that Eugenics is also a very common thing in the United States, plus in several other countries (Switzerland, Scandinavia, Canada). The European neo-Nazi network is further demonstrated by another article of a Swiss. Michael Peter criticises the "Antirassismusgesetz" which intends to protect residents of different race against discrimination and hate crimes. Peter wants protection of the "orignal ethnical group" ensured in the first place. Book Reviews: Andreas Kittler, Hermann Goerings Carinhall.

Carmin, Das Schwarze Reich. Geheimgesellschaften im 20. Jahrhundert, Heyne Verlag, Muenchen Issue 1/1998 ------------ Articles on the Bundeswehr scandal. The well-known neo-nazi and violent criminal Manfred Roeder who was allowed to speak to Bundeswehr officers at the central Bundeswehr Academy is vehemently being defended. The "real enemy" stands on the left side. Former SS man Franz Schoenhuber (75) complains that old men are being dragged before courts. Pauline Hanson from Australia is introduced to the readers. Issue 2/1998 ------------ Crime is the central topic of this issue. Karl Richter is of the opinion that German courts fail in punishing capital crime but are rather after his national comrades, as well as such minor things as high speed on roads. Not enough efforts are being made to cope with crimes committed by foreigners in Germany, Richter says, and finally wants death penalty installed again. Although he is not much in favour of the United States on the whole, he agrees with such views and policies. Hans-Guenter Schodruch (lawyer, till 1994 member of the European parliament, and vice president of the European right parties headed by Le Pen) argues that the sentence on the ill Holocaust denier Udo Walendy is not fair at all. Especially when being compared with capital crimes. A column by Franz Schoenhuber on the radical right movements in Europe. Haider of the FPOE, Schoenhuber says, did a major mistake by accepting Peter Sichrowsky as a FPOE candidate for the European parliament. Sichrowsky recently announced that he is in favour of the expulsion of Le Pen of the European Parliament because of his statements in Munich on the concentration camps. After many right extreme incidents within the Bundeswehr, Minister of Defense Volker Ruehe, finally announced that no persons affiliated to any right extreme groups will be allowed for compulsory military service in the Bundeswehr. Werner Baumann thus us giving advice on how to get around this compulsory service: Shaving heads, wearing Doc Martins, asking whether a Baseball bat is allowed in the dormitories, or just writing some letters to the Minister of Defense. Of the book reviews, I'd just like to mention: F.W. Seidler (Ed). Verbrechen an der Wehrmacht, Kriegsgreuel der Roten Armee 1941/42. Pour le Merite - VErlag fuer Wehrwissenschaft, Selent 1997 FZ-Verlag (Ed.). Prominente ohne Maske. Drittes Reich. 1000 Lebenslaeufe der wichtigsten Personen 1933-1945, FZ-Verlag, Muenchen 1997 Verbrecher-Album der Sieger. Die 100 furchtbarsten Schreibtischtaeter und Vollstrecker des Vernichtungskrieges gegen Deutschland. FZ-Verlag, Muenchen 1997 Hans Jansen. Der Madagaskar-Plan. Die beabsichtigte Deportation der europaeischen Juden nach Madagaskar. Langen Mueller Verlag. Muenchen 1997 Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke. Die okkulten Wurzen des Nationalsozialismus. Leopold Stocker Verlag. Graz-Stuttgart 1997 Issue 3/1998 ------------ The cover says 'Michel kehr aus!', intending to draw a line from the 1848 revolution to present days. Up to this day democratic rights like free speech are still violated, most of the authors say. Not only the cases of Udo Walendy and several others are mentioned, but also music CDs which got banned (because of hate promotion). An article of Hans-Holger Malcomess on the Wehrmacht crime exhibition of the Hamburger Institut fuer Sozialforschung (Reemtsma), complaining that the exhibition only shows that "bad" things, not the positive traditions of the Wehrmacht. Ironically, this Mr Malcomess, member of the CDU, was appointed to head the investigative commission of the Parliament on the recent Manfred Roeder/Bundeswehr scandal. Malcomess is known for having very close contacts with the extreme right. According to a court decision, one can call him a "Nazi-Sympathisant" without getting in troubles. News: Louise-Katharina Jodl, widow of Alfred Jodl died at the age of 92. Also Erwin Hoeke, publisher and owner of a printing office in Preussisch Oldendorf died at the age of 77. At the age of 19 he was a member of Waffen-SS Division "Leibstandarte". His publishing company was specialised in Holocaust denial and apologetic literature. In this article this is called "non-conformistic". --- <1> Handbuch deutscher Rechtsextremismus, Jens Mecklenburg (Ed.), Berlin 1997, p. 420 f. Please note that most of the publishing companies mentioned above are specialized in apologetic literature and Holocaust denial and are monitored by the Verfassungsschutz (the FBI equivalent). Hope some of you find this information useful and that I don't bore you with these rather lengthy Emails. [snip]
