Church Blankeying-Bombing Nazi Germany - 1940

UK: Honeywood Museum – [1940] How Churchill Initiated “Saturation” [Blanket] Bombing of Civilian Areas of Nazi Germany! (24.2.2026)

It could well be the case that “Croydon” was mistakenly presented as “Kenley” on the Luftwaffe maps – not that it mattered as both were legitimate “military” targets – and that the map included the old boundary markers that had subsequently shifted – with the land now defining the active aerodrome being redefined into other areas. What was once aerodrome land running across the old periphery – was now Council-owned land comprising of civilian houses and civic roads run through – and around it. Total Luftwaffe strength in August 1940 was between 2000-2,200 fighter, fighter-bomber, and bomber aeroplanes – often flying around 1000 sorties per day against the UK Mainland. Luftwaffe losses (for August 15th 1940) amounted to 76 aircraft across all engagements – while the RAF lost just 34. With the specific attack upon Croydon – 14 Bf 110s and 8 Bf 109s Luftwaffe aeroplanes were involved (some sources suggest the number was between 20-30 – the record is unclear) – these are the Luftwaffe crews that supposedly bombed the civilian population. It is said that the Nazi German losses amounted to 25% across the board – so over Croydon this would have amounted to around 6 aircraft – a small number compared to Luftwaffe losses across the region.

Honeywood Museum - Home Guard Fatigue-Jacket

UK: Sutton & Cheam Home Guard [WWII] – “Private Ernist Geirenger” [55th Surrey] – Preserved “Fatigue-Jacket”! (21.2.2026)

Indeed, it was the British Oxford graduate (and “Communist”) Tom Wintringham (1898-1949) who had masterminded the “Land Defence Volunteers Force” (LDVF) comprised of hundreds of thousands of eager working-class men and women – before Winston Churchill stepped-in and had every Socialist arrested and imprisoned. Churchill invented a “new” (false) history for what he re-named the “Home Guard” – claiming (again, falsely) that he had “invented” it. Whilst maintaining its essential “Socialist” ethos – Churchill kept the Unit under-armed and always lacking basic equipment and ammunition. He also made sure that as the Soviet Red Army moved ever closer to Berlin – the Home Guard was abolished in 1944 – before the war ended. However, during WWII the Home Guard was technically an ally of the USSR – and this is why the Unions urged hundreds of thousands of men and women to join it – although this “Socialist History is now deliberately obscured and difficult to find. The Home Guard was briefly re-mobilised inthe early 1950s when Churchill regained power – but was soon disbanded due to a lack of interest. Ordinary working-class men and women would not join to oppose a Soviet Union that was not a threat to the UK.

Why Does the far-Right Use Rotersand's Music"

Germany: Rotersand – “We Will K’ll Them All” – Why Does the Far-Right Use this Track? (16.2.2026)

This is the comment I left on the website carrying the “Rotersand” interview featured below: “Many of the English-speaking far-right (Neo-Fascist and Neo-Nazi) groups throughout the West – routinely utilise the Rotersand (2009) track “We Shall Kill Them All” as an “anthem” – interpreting the lyrics as being aimed at the political left and any centralised resistance to their destructive agenda. Indeed, this association is so common that I am astonished that this point of enquiry was not raised and discussed in this article. This association is dangerous – as the structure of this track is “catchy” and easily rememberable. There are endless unofficial far-right videos – being shared throughout the internet (primarily by the young of many countries) – that carefully splice black and white footage of WWII-era footage of Hitler, Mussolini, and various aspects of that tumultuous conflict – all from the perspective of Fascism and Nazism. What is the viewpoint of the group-members of – Rotersand – to this disturbing development? From the content of the interview contained in this – the band remains oblivious to this disturbing co-option – if indeed it is a co-option

How the Alt-Right Is Using Sex and Camp to Attract Gay Men to Fascism! (1.9.2025)

Longtime LGBTQ organizer Scot Nakagawa has been fighting white nationalist movements for over 30 years, now as a senior partner at ChangeLab, a think tank on racial justice. Says Nakagawa, “We have to remember that even racist white gay men are still very vulnerable to discrimination” because they’re gay. “When one is under attack”—not by phantom Muslims, but by real, neighborhood gaybashers—“one picks up whatever shields one can,” even shields like racism that will not fight the true threat. In Donovan’s writing, it’s clear that what he’s terrified of most is “weakness,” especially male weakness. (He notes that he feels “disgusting” if he doesn’t train in a gym “for more than a few days.”) It doesn’t take a psychoanalyst to guess that, at bottom, he feels profoundly weak and vulnerable. O’Meara, for his part, fears that he will be destroyed by African-American and Jewish “rot” and pollution. It doesn’t take a psychoanalyst to guess that he feels dirty, and at risk of decaying from within.

Rather than simply writing off the gay men who may be attracted to white nationalism, Nakagawa says: “It is really important to think about who those people are, and to try to reach out to them. Which means having compassion for them, as difficult as that may be.” Nakagawa feels that the left has too often behaved as though racism and sexism are primarily matters of personal character, rather than deep social structures that elites—the 1 percent—use to consolidate their power.

“It’s a bad choice to imagine that all these men are incredibly rich,” he adds. Rather than demonizing men who may long for a strong brotherhood to protect them in a society that is increasingly unsafe and un-nourishing for all of us, we should counter-organize among them and have the searching and committed conversations about racism and sexism that have too often eluded the gay community. In this time of great danger for both LGBTQ people and the entire country, the only real way to fight fascism is to offer a competing vision, for a society that will meet everyone’s needs rather than, as Donovan would have it, the needs of “the wolves” who seek to assert “dominance and control.” For at the end of the day, none of us is a wolf—or to say it another way, even wolves are vulnerable.

Soviet Red Army Soldiers Meet British Army Soldiers - Iran (1941)

When the Left & Right Adopt One-Another’s Ideals! (30.8.2025)

The history is perhaps not so clear-cut as above – as when the UK controlled Palestine between 1917-1947 – British troops were called upon to keep the warring Muslims and Zionists apart. This meant that both sides viewed the UK as an enemy – and a friend – depending upon what was happening. Zionists, for instance, carried-out some the most hideous terrorist attacks upon British citizens and military – as did the various Arab factions. Indeed, even today, some of the Palestinian factions fighting in and around Gaza – still celebrate an ambush (and massacre) of British soldiers which occurred in 1936 – and which is believed to have been encouraged by Adolf Hitler (a man who had very good relations with the Mufti of Palestine). Not only did certain German Jews (Zionists) in Palestine develop very a good Hitlerite relationship – but they did this in parallel (and in distinction to) the good relations the Arabs already possessed! Hitler, at least in the years prior to WWII, held all the cards in Gaza, and was the puppet-master pulling all the anti-British strings.

Dialectical Materialism & Rebirth for Marxists! (26.8.2025)

In a moment – things dialectically change forever. When the axe fell on the neck of Charles I in 1649 – the ancient convention of an absolute monarch in England ended forever. How could this have happened? Well, there was a Revolution which saw tens of thousands fight and die in England so that the emerging bourgeois class could usurp political power from the aristocracy. There was no future for the absolute monarchy. And yet the agency of the “moment”, despite its nature, continue to manifest unabated. Rebirth is not reincarnation – the Buddha hinted about the former but rejected the latter. Rebirth may not be what the average Marxist thinks it is. An effective Marxist regime must be replicated effectively from one generation to the next.
