Pack The Courtroom January 4th At 11am For The Tinley Park 5
The Tinley Park Five were in court today to respond to the offer reached in the 402 conference. A continuance was issued today and the court will proceed with a previous motion to suppress the arrests of May 19, 2012. This motion will be heard on Jan 4, 2013 at 11 am at Bridgeview Courthouse. Our comrades are requesting that supporters and sympathizers try to make it to this court date if they can, so the court can see the defendants are supported by the community it claims our friends are a threat to.
Chicago Anarchist Black Cross will be posting updates via this facebook group.
Thanks for doing your best to make it.
ARA Releases Information On Golden Dawn North America After A Two And A Half Month Intelligence Operation
An update: Since this release we realized that the information given for Joseph P Jordan was not the correct information, and instead belonged to someone with the same name. We have removed that information and sincerely apologize for the mix up. - the ARA networkAs an introduction to this release south side ARA would just like to send a message to anyone genuinely interested in attempting to network with, or join Golden Dawn in Chicago. Especially anyone who can actually convince them that they are trustworthy; we have consistently obliterated white nationalist organizations in this city and we are more than happy to do it again. You will not last.. We promise.
Taken From antiracistaction.org
Contrary to recent International news Greece's neo-Nazi party Golden Dawn is NOT setting up shop in Chicago. We tricked tricked them. Their vaunted Chicago expansion was in fact an Anti-Racist Action intelligence operation. We are releasing some of the fruits of that operation now.
This release is in three parts:
1. As a claim of a small victory in our ongoing struggle against fascism, racism, and anti-immigrant hatred.
2. To release documentation on leaders, members, and supporters of Golden Dawn in North America, Greece, and wherever else they may be hiding.
3. To call for others to flood the Golden Dawn Headquarters and New York branch in an effort not only to destroy Golden Dawn's ability to grow, but to destroy the credibility of anyone who might want to sincerely help them.
Over the past two and a half months, Anti-Racist Action has been involved in a quiet campaign to stop the nationalist organization from expanding in North America. One of our goals, which we achieved with great success, was to gain intelligence on members of New York's Golden Dawn chapter, their supporters, and members within the Federation of Hellenic Societies of Greater New York who might be sympathetic to their views.
We chose Chicago as a fictitious base for our operation because of its strong antifascist presence and the massive Greek population affected by the diaspora in and around the city. To us, it seemed highly probable that this may be one of the next major battlegrounds between Golden Dawn and anti-fascists in the US, and we wanted to lay claim before they could.
One of the main ways to halt any nazi organization from expanding, is by causing them to doubt any networking request they may receive from abroad. For this, we need your help. Here's what we did, and what you can do, too, to stop them.
---
The first step was rather easy. Because we'd been watching the white nationalist website Stormfront for since its inception, we knew that there were several members who were sympathetic to, even envious of, Golden Dawn's approach to neo-Nazism. Several of these members were of Greek descent, and some resided in Greece. We assumed that someone had to know something. It was merely a matter of picking the slow antelope from the herd.
After a dozen or so posts, we gained trust from Panos8814, a member who had posted a translation of the Golden Dawn manifesto. We offered to help with future translations, and he gave us a contact to Patreus, another member, who was more connected with the organization in Greece. Patreus and Panos8814 divulged important information without ever meeting face to face, to an anonymous person with a four day old account. This is a major fail for Golden Dawn.
Patreus told us that he would keep us updated on any important news regarding Golden Dawn in the United States. Panos8814 and Patreus both encouraged us to contact the organization through the main website, and Panos gave us step-by-step instructions on what to say and who to contact. This exposed their security methods and people in Greece to us as well. Patreus mentioned that the International chapters function autonomously from the main Greek organization, but that it still needed to go through Greece's Golden Dawn.
We told Golden Dawn that we intended to start a chapter in Chicago and wanted help with the protocol on how do to that correctly. Within days, we had an email from Golden Dawn headquarters.
In our first email from Golden Dawn, we were told to contact Emmanouil Lallas, controller of New York Golden Dawn. We were given a Facebook account, email address, and phone number. Through his Facebook, we found that Lallas was friends with Demetrios Demetrios, the third vice president of the Federation of Hellenic Societies of Greater New York, though not with any of the other members of the board. After a couple web searches, we found that he had spoken at a workshop put on by the Federation in May 2012.
Over time Golden Dawn gave us critical information, which we used to locate it's membership in the United States. Some of their membership is listed below. Feel free to discuss current events and race relations with them via phone, email, fax and in person. We hope that if we can flood Golden Dawn with fictitious chapter requests, they won't know who to trust.

Meet William S Lasko AKA Racist Scumbag
Below are two screen shots taken from stormfront.org:
More choice Lasko quotes from stormfront:
"The sooner we can put this ho(lol)cost thing behind us, the sooner our race can move on to greater things. I understand fear about asking for alternative books or even non-propaganda books, but sometimes a sacrifice needs to be made. Do they have Mein Kampf on the shelf? If not, why not? That is a great research book for anyone doing a piece on German history. It is a wonderful read about the enlightenment of a person. See if they can get that book, then move from there."
"Do not forget the one key to our dominance. If it was the sun that causes skin color change, and if everyone came from africa, then why are lighter color skinned people more advanced than the Africans they used to be?"In a thread titled "Armed Ohio Robber reportedly Demands Vote for Obama!":
"The robber said he was Obama, why hasnt he been arrested? "Vote Obama. This is Obama, bitches.". Exact words... yet he is still our president. These fools think that because Whites are so lax about this kind of thing right now that they can get away with anything forever. We havent even begun to fight back."In a thread titled: "Four Black Youfs Brutally Beat White Man In Unprovoked Attack In Baltimore Again":
"Unprovoked? Isn't it obvious? He was white, how much more provocation does an animal need? Different? Attack! These pathetic scum need to be maimed and imprisoned. This kid didn't want to fight and witness testimony made that clear. Yet the sentiment of "One bad apple doesn't ruin the tree" continues to wreck our White culture's mind. When a tree gives off more than its fair share of bad apples, we must cut that tree down for good. We don't give it another season, we don't try to salvage it. Obama's sons are a thugs and racists."
"From the age of 14 to 17, my high school years, i was attacked by black gangs simply for being white. I was diagnosed with a personality disorder when i expressed by hate and resentment about the black race. Yet, when blacks express their hate for whites, it is out of "historical indignities" and they get off the hook. It was the jewish doctors who tell me that i have something wrong with my head. They spread their psycho-ganda into the media and tell us that our attitude is psychologically wrong."In a thread titled "Why do people care about a pure race? What difference does it make?":
"The reason I care about the purity is because I'm not mixed. A mixed child has no ethnic integrity or identify. Being a purebred Irish man, I will make sure my child is mothered by an Irish woman. I want this because if my child does not identify with a nationality, he/she will be another person trying to force multiculturalism down our throats because my child does not have a real national home. It is a circle logic, but perhaps that is why we do it. We do it so we can continue to be pure."In a thread titled "New members post your introductions here":
"I'm quite new here and in the WN scene. Only a few months since I found out that we are in a state of deconstruction of pride. I am from the north suburbs of Chicago and went to a mostly black high school where I saw lots of black on white violence and no one did a thing about it. I've always thought that the black folk were less civilized, and am very glad to find that I am not the only one."

David Irving Routed In Minneapolis
For some odd reason, David Irving did not have any listed public event in Chicago for his most recent speaking tour this year. We see this as a positive thing, but after hearing about the antifa disruption in Minneapolis that, ironically, turned into an all out book destroying party, a part of us wishes he would have. Just Kidding! David Irving, stay the fuck out of our city. Good work Minneapolis!
Taken from onepeoplesproject.com:
Taken from onepeoplesproject.com:
On November 16, 2012, David Irving, renowned Holocaust denier and Hitlerite disciple (though he prefers the phrase ‘controversial historian’) attempted to hold an event on his speaking tour, “Hitler and I,” at the Graves 601 Hotel in downtown Minneapolis. The Twin Cities, which has decades of successful antifascist and anti-racist organizing behind it, was ready for him. In a display of mass, disciplined, and coordinated action, we stood in defense of our fellow human beings.
Irving’s events have long been focused on four goals: the talks provide Irving with a venue at which to profit heavily from his work, both the books and movies he sells as well as from ticket sales for the event. Additionally, and of greater concern, these events legitimize fascism in the public eye, provide networking opportunities for local white supremacists and fascists, and provide infusions of cash to local fascist groups. The antifascists of Minneapolis and St. Paul recognize the real and present danger such events pose to our communities and loved ones, and organized to disrupt Irving’s event.
Having gotten past the lobby and up five floors of hotel elevators, we entered the room approximately 60 strong. While some antifascists videotaped attendees to help us identify local fascists, others seized the opportunity to destroy his books and dvds, depriving both him and his fascist sympathizers of much-needed funds for their violence and hatred.
Irving and his cronies are attempting to research members of the antifa crowd, posting their photos on his page, comparing to Facebook and other social and local media, and offering rewards. Their attempt to intimidate the people on the basis of their hateful property points out the common collusion of the fascists with law enforcement and the principle of capitalist profit. But not to worry: for the most part, their ‘intelligence’ is at the quality you’d expect of people often referred to as ‘boneheads,’ and has amused the local community, which long ago overcame its fear of fascists.

Pack The Court Room In Solidarity With Dan And Spit
Last Monday, October 15, 2012, was the seventh anniversary of the anti-NSM riots in Toledo, Ohio as well as the last day for replies to preauthorization motion responses in the cases against Melissa Hack, Ross Hack, and Leland Jones (arrested in connection with the July 1998 murder of anti-racists Daniel Shersty and Lin "Spit" Newborn). This month is important for us in Anti-Racist Action (ARA) because it reminds of us our past victories as well as those we've lost.
In February, the Hacks and Leland Jones were indicted in Las Vegas. These three individuals comprise the second wave of arrests in connection with these murders. Melissa Hack is the ex-girlfriend of John "Polar Bear" Butler, tried and convicted in 2001 for his part in the murders, and the sister of Ross Hack. These names are not new to us. We've been aware of the Hack siblings involvement in the murder of our friends since 1998. So has the LVPD.
ARA is calling for antifa to pack the courtroom in support of Daniel Shersty and Lin "Spit" Newborn and their families at the trial of Melissa Hack, Ross Hack, and Leland Jones on November 1, 2013 in Las Vegas. Although we as a network do not seek justice via the cops or the courts, our presence there is important not only to let the Shersty and Newborn families know that their sons did not die in vain, but to show that antifascists are still here and will continue to be here fighting racism, fascism, and bigotry until we win.
The indictment of Melissa Hack, Ross Hack, and Leland Jones can be found here, and a portion of the complex case schedule can be found here.
Anti-Muslim Ads Appearing On CTA Buses
On Wednesday, November 14, a series of Islamophobic ads appeared on CTA buses. These ads, paid for by Pamela Geller's anti-Islam group American Freedom Defense Initiative, are similar to those that have sparked controversy in several other major U.S. cities.
How should this situation be dealt with?
As anti-authoritarians, and as folks who, to put it lightly, disregard law in the struggle against oppression, we do not seek for these ads to be removed via any legalistic means. Does this mean we think racism should be tolerated? Hell no. We wouldn't be angered in the least if the CTA refused to run these ads, however, we wish to see a different approach to challenging this Islamophobic propaganda. We would like to see a situation in which people were outraged enough that they would take it upon themselves to deface racist advertisements and silence organized bigots.
The racists, by law, can say whatever they want… but they should not be surprised if the people who wish not to live in a racist world do something about it. Folks like those who shut down a gathering of white supremacists in Tinley Park, IL, earlier this year understand this, and should be praised for engaging with the racists directly and not appealing to the state to intervene in their affairs. Reliance on the state weakens the ability of autonomous social movements to bring about the changes necessary to overthrow the rotten systems of white supremacy, patriarchy, and capitalism that we live under.
We see any attack by the state against any political faction, even ones we disagree with, as an attack that can be and has been already used against us. We see the state as our enemy just as we do the racists. It's up to us, anti-authoritarians, anti-capitalists, and anti-fascists, to defeat all forms of opposition to a class, free society and an end to white supremacy and patriarchy.

'Jihad' ads on CTA buses spark outrage
The controversial ads unveiled on the back of 10 CTA buses Wednesday read, “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man.” They conclude with the words, “Support Copts. Defeat Jihad,” referring to friction between Muslims and Coptic Christians in Egypt.
Within hours of the buses' first runs, messages appeared on Facebook and Twitter denouncing the campaign. Many said degrading a spiritual tenet of Islam -- one that refers to a Muslim's personal quest to become a better person -- amounts to hate speech.
“This whole campaign insinuates Muslims are violent,” said Asaf Bar-Tura, programs director for the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs, which protested the ads on social media Wednesday. “If it's within their legal powers, (CTA) should either not put it up because they incite hate and stereotypical thinking or put a label next to each sign saying `The CTA disagrees with this ad.’ ”
So far, federal judges have sided with the advertisement's sponsor, the American Freedom Defense Initiative, which sued transit authorities in New York City and Washington, D.C., when they initially rejected the ads. Those judges ruled that public forums such as buses and trains can't bar advertising entitled to First Amendment protection.
Pamela Geller, executive director of the initiative, said she believes the Jewish Council has good intentions, but denies that her ad qualifies as hate speech.
"There’s nothing hateful about it," she said in an e-mail. "9/11 was hate. 3/11 in Madrid was hate. ... The Christmas underwear bomber was hate. ... Pushing back against such hate is not hate."
"Perhaps this is the strangest thing of all: their utter lack of awareness, or denial, of the barrel pointed straight between their eyes," Geller said. "It is an odd combination of naivete, brainwashing and self-loathing that I will never comprehend."
Although Geller posted on her blog "Atlas Shrugs" a letter from her lawyer threatening legal action against CTA if they didn’t place the ads, Brian Steele, a spokesman for the CTA, denied that the CTA was threatened with a lawsuit. But the precedents did deter the CTA from rejecting the ads, which are expected to run on different routes each day for the next four weeks.
“While those courts agreed that the AFDI ads violate anti-disparagement or anti-demeaning standards similar to CTA's, that violation in and of itself did not remove AFDI's First Amendment protection to place the ads,” Steele said in a statement.
“CTA understands that this ad may be offensive to our customers,” he added. “While the courts have ruled this ad is a form of protected speech under the First Amendment, we object to its divisive message.”
The estimated ad revenue is about $4,500, a spokesman said.
Meanwhile, Ahmed Rehab, the executive director of the Chicago chapter of the Council on American Islamic Relations, said the group expects to launch its own nationwide ad campaign next week. As part of the campaign called “My Jihad,” individual Muslims define what the spiritual concept means for them.
“I don't feel the urge to fight … I'd rather put out the alternative,” Rehab said. “People can decide what racism is.”
Nazis Show Up To Elie Wiesel Speaking Event In Chicago
On November 11th, Elie Wiesel, a writer, professor, and Holocaust survivor, held a discussion on "the importance of learning and memory" at the Symphony Center in Chicago. Much like Elies speech at Malcolm X college a few years back, neo-nazis protested and handed out literature. This time there were only three white supremacists, and it was not Bill White's American National Socialist Workers Party (ANSWP), nor any offshoot. The nazis in attendance, judging by the symbols on their clothes, appeared to be involved in either the Creativity Alliance (CA) or the Creativity Movement (TCM); the latest of several incarnations of the racist group (and religion) originally known as Church of the Creator (COTC). The Creativity Movement rose from the ashes of the World Church of the Creator (WCOTC), led by Matt Hale and based out of Peoria, IL.
Antifascists in Illinois have had a long history of battle against WCOTC. An intense history involving home demos against their members (such as Justin J Frogge, now a convicted pedophile living at 441 Hartwell St. Elkhorn, WI 53121), individual confrontation, and disruption of their events that often ended in combat.
Since Matt Hale (WCOTC leader or "Pontifex Maximus") was sentenced to 40 years for soliciting an undercover FBI informant to kill federal judge Joan Lefkow, both the CA and TCM have not been looking good. Prominent members of TCM such as Brian Moudry (who is now facing arson charges for burning down an African American neighbors house), and Micahel Eisenhauer, have left the organization and TCM has spent an abundance of time arguing with, and shit talking, the CA. Just earlier this year, south side ARA got Tim Nelson of TCM kicked out of his apartment on the northwest side.
The man desperately trying to hold it all together for TCM, is James Logsdon (1233 Holiday RD Bloomington, IL 61704, 309-830-9485), the one time leader of the the WCOTC security force known as the White Berets, and current Pontifex Maximus. He was convicted of reckless homicide in 1998 in which he was sentenced to six years. He was later convicted and released in 2010 after doing three months for a DUI and driving with a suspended license. Logsdon often holds meet and greet barbecues at his house for any and all white nationalists in the mid west who want to network, but there has been no actual street presence from TCM in Illinois at all.
Regardless if those protesting this event were actually Creators or not, we are curious to know who they are. Their presence was unannounced prior to the event, and we have yet to see any written report backs. They came and went silently, likely attempting to stay off of our radar. Taken from the Tribune:

Wiesel speaks to sanctity of learning, power of memory
Mark Caro
Elie Wiesel didn't need Holocaust deniers to lend immediacy to his discussion about the importance of learning and memory, but there they were anyway, three men standing outside the Symphony Center Sunday morning holding an anti-Semitic banner and barking such nonsense as, "There never was a Holocaust."
"Hopefully he doesn't reproduce," one woman muttered about the group's leader as she stepped inside.
The bile outside, of course, was no match for the eloquence, poignancy and good humor of the 84-year-old Nobel Peace Prize winner. Wiesel's writings, inspired by his experiences in Nazi death camps, earned him the Chicago Tribune Literary Prize, which he received Sunday as part of the Chicago Humanities Festival. Wiesel was interviewed on stage by Tribune critic Howard Reich, himself the son of Holocaust survivors and writer of the book and documentary "Prisoner of Her Past" about his mother's struggle to come to terms with her ordeal.
Meet An Alleged Tinley Park “Victim” – Jeffrey Burns
Taken from HARM blog:
Jeffrey Stuart Burns (aka Thomas Stuart) from Wood River, IL would have you believe he’s a stand-up guy. He’s a devout Roman Catholic with nearly 2000 posts on forums.Catholic.com. He loves dogs, especially pits and shepherds. He works in private security. He listens to Christian music. He loves the outdoors. His favorite books are Sherlock Holmes, The Seven Habits of Highly Successful People, and just near anything Ayn Rand ever wrote. He even smokes a pipe.
But there’s another side of Jeff. He’s the type of guy that dresses up like a Muslim for Halloween. He also is a forum moderator for world’s largest white supremacist website, Stormfront. He specializes in moderating conversations about white supremacy and religion. When it comes to keeping conversations about whether or not Jesus was Jewish civil and respectful, Jeff is your man. When you combine Jeff’s religious devotion with his perverse views about race you come up with an intense ideology:
-from http://www.stormfront.org/forum/t884204-3/
Besides being a Hitler loving national socialist, Jeff is also a member of Council of Conservative Citizens and American Third Position (screenshot). Jeff’s true unfulfilled ambition within the white supremacist community was to join Volksfront, a violent skinhead crew (screenshot) but failed to meet their physical requirrements.
Here’s Jeff’s version of national socialism in his own words:
-from http://www.stormfront.org/forum/t841576-14/#post9733179
To give him credit, he’s one of the few nazis I’ve encountered that has a strong enough grasp on political theory that he is capable of discerning the difference between Marxist-Leninism and anarcho-syndacalism. It’s also somehow refreshing to hear a fascist admit openly that they have no sentimental attachments to notions of equality or democracy.
Truly the “Overman” of the master race he’s considered to be within the white supremacist community, Jeff has been attending leadership retreats sponsored by Stormfront. Though you might not have heard of Bob Whitaker, if you’ve followed news coverage of the Tinley Park Five you’ve probably heard parroting of what white supremacists are now referring to as the “Bob Whitaker Mantra”:
Again referencing Stornfront’s [sic] recent Leadership Seminar: those who coin or appropriate a term first own it. It is very difficult to successfully re-capture or redefine a word the Enemy camp siezed [sic] first. “National Socialism” was an attempt to recapture the word ‘socialist’ for the Right, and it has only succeeded in the minds of most ordinary Americans in confounding Nazis with Communists. By the same token, we cannot re-define ‘racist’ as a badge of honor nor successfully abridge it into ‘racialist’. Commies coined the word and they own it. What we can do is throw the epithet back on them: “racism is code word for anti-White; anti-racism is code for White genocide. Our people are the ones who truly believe in diversity: our enemies want to destroy diversity through racial integration”. THAT is the Bob Whitaker “mantra”, and how we use it.
-from http://www.stormfront.org/forum/t837307-4/#post9640332
Jeffrey Burns and his cohorts are fascists in a very real and classical sense of the word. They are obviously racist and they know it. They know that YOU don’t like racism so they figure they’ll just change the terminology. The tactic is neither new nor shocking. The only real surprise is just how willing the corporate media has been to perpetuate their blatant lies in print without the slightest bit of investigation or burden of proof. (///)
If you have any information about Jeffrey Burns, especially regarding his work in private security, please contact us.
“I personally blend my traditionalist Catholicism with some affinities for NS [national socialist] esotericism and, increasingly, some elements of Heathenry and Aryan Vedism. Hardly the first to do that: many before me of a mystical/philosophical bent have explored similarly. The thing is: if mystical [white nationalism] is part of the path one is drawn to–it should be a DISCIPLINED walk, and not just a verbal or mental assent. I’m probably no model of that: the first rule of discipline is to establish a stable routine. Mine gets tossed every which way by nature of my work. Anyhow: respect and honor for Adolf Hitler is indeed something I affirm. [emphasis added]”

Jeff’s true unfulfilled ambition within the white supremacist community was to join Volksfront, a violent skinhead crew (screenshot) but failed to meet their physical requirrements.
Here’s Jeff’s version of national socialism in his own words:
The incompetant [sic] steel-magnate, the inept butcher, the shop-keeper who simply could not keep shop–these would lose the business concerns which they could not operate properly anyhow. But they would yet have social safety-nets cushioning them from their fall and enabling them to return to productive economic activity in some other way. This is anathema to the underlying preconceptions of true socialisms, Marxian or otherwise, because all true socialisms start with the classical liberal idea that all humans are fundamentally equal, separated and differentiated only by unnatural class differences which can with time be eliminated. Start with the recognition that NS [national socialist] ideology does NOT believe in the fundamental eqality [sic] of humankind but rather that people are naturally different and will have organically-differentiated functions in an economy and you begin to grasp what separates NS [national socialism] from pure socialism.
The underlying vision of socialism is the abolition of government, the “whithering-away of the State”, the establishment of anarcho-syndicalist democratic systems where everything is held in common, everyone has an equal vote, and “government” is wholly synonymous with the People. A vision which Marxist-Leninism could never attain to despite systematic efforts to ‘scientifically’ attain such. SOCIALISM IS THE ATTEMPT TO ACHIEVE ABSOLUTE DEMOCRACY IN EVERY RESPECT. Fron [sic] that perspective a market-economy is loathsome and undesirable as the ultimate goal is economic cooperation and not competition. National Socialism is the opposite: it is a repudiation of equalitarianism and the self-conscious effort to attain to a society and an economy governed by elites, specifically by elites born and systematically proven to their role. From that perspective, a free competitve marketplace is desirable as the proving-ground of the economic elites.
This is central to a proper understanding of modern political philosophy:
THE EXISTENCE OF A BUREACRACY IN A SOCIALIST STATE–indeed the existence of any sort of “exoskeleton” of government apart from the “people”–REPRESENTS A FAILURE OF SOCIALIST THEORY. On the other hand–THE PRESENCE OF A STRONG STATE CENTERED ON A LEADER AND GOVERNED BY ELITES WHO ARE THE CREAM OF AN ETHNICALLY-PURE ARYAN PEOPLE IS A NATIONAL SOCIALIST IDEAL. From this perspective a “democracy” is an inherent evil and democratic “ideals” are an evil to be purged from the Body Politic. A National Socialist state does not want democracy: it wants a nation of Overmen, a Master Race of people rendered hardened against the weaknesses of equalitarianism and democracy which Jewish ideology have insinuated into our minds to weaken and destroy us. The vision of National Socialism is in many ways the vision of the Dune trilogy [all emphasis added].

Though you might not have heard of Bob Whitaker, if you’ve followed news coverage of the Tinley Park Five you’ve probably heard parroting of what white supremacists are now referring to as the “Bob Whitaker Mantra”:
Again referencing Stornfront’s [sic] recent Leadership Seminar: those who coin or appropriate a term first own it. It is very difficult to successfully re-capture or redefine a word the Enemy camp siezed [sic] first. “National Socialism” was an attempt to recapture the word ‘socialist’ for the Right, and it has only succeeded in the minds of most ordinary Americans in confounding Nazis with Communists. By the same token, we cannot re-define ‘racist’ as a badge of honor nor successfully abridge it into ‘racialist’. Commies coined the word and they own it. What we can do is throw the epithet back on them: “racism is code word for anti-White; anti-racism is code for White genocide. Our people are the ones who truly believe in diversity: our enemies want to destroy diversity through racial integration”. THAT is the Bob Whitaker “mantra”, and how we use it.

Jeffrey Burns and his cohorts are fascists in a very real and classical sense of the word. They are obviously racist and they know it. They know that YOU don’t like racism so they figure they’ll just change the terminology. The tactic is neither new nor shocking. The only real surprise is just how willing the corporate media has been to perpetuate their blatant lies in print without the slightest bit of investigation or burden of proof. (///)

Call For Phone Jam Against AFTAH Event On October 27th!
1217 Bainbridge Drive, Naperville IL |
Taken from Chicago Indymedia:
Shut down keynote speaker Dr. Judith Reisman at AFTAH event on October 27!
On October 27th AFTAH ( Americans For Truth About Homosexuality), a notoriously homophobic organization started by Peter LaBarbera based in the suburbs of Chicago will once again be hosting a banquet dinner at the Christian Liberty Academy in Arlington heights, IL (502 W. Euclid Ave., Arlington Heights, IL 60004). AFTAH was listed as an active hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center back in 2010. Despite this information being made public the Christian Liberty Academy has continuously allowed AFTAH to host events at their church, making it a safe space for hate speech. We are urging everyone to participate in a call in to the Christian Liberty Academy and AFTAH offices urging them to shut down this event. Hate speech will not be tolerated in our communities!
Phone numbers for call in:

John King of American Third Position Runs for Jasper School Board President (Part I, II, III)
Taken from HARM:
Jasper residents have quite a choice ahead of them when they head to the polls to choose their School Board President. The choice is between an angry, mentally ill, racist loon who can’t hold down a job and between someone who’s… well… not those things.
Here’s Johnny Boy doing his one man show which I’ve entitled, “I’m a Racist Nutjob”. Johnny gave his performance at the University of Southern Indiana in the wake of the Trayvon Martin murder. His sign reads:
John King is politically active, but not very politically loyal. He’s an active member of the American Third Position, a racist hate group. He also describes himself as a “rabid” supporter of Ron Paul and the Libertarian Party (shocking). He also argued that he has a “lifelong affiliation” with the Republican Party when he tried to sue his way into the RNC delagation earlier this year. He’s also involved with the Sovereign Citizen Movement, which the FBI classifies among domestic terror threats as anti-government extremists. He’s claims he’s done campaign work for his “favorite” political party in the UK, we’re looking into it but I’m gonna take a gamble and say that it’s mos def the BNP or EDL.
John King is also mentally ill. Seriously. Mentally. Ill. Here he is talking about himself [content removed, here's our archived copy] on an online Bipolar Support Group. It’s a long rant, but completely worth reading. In his online diatribe, John basically explains to everyone why he fails at life. Since the synopsis comes straight from the bigot’s mouth, I’ll pull a few quotes to make sure that all the potential conservative voters are aware of exactly who they’re voting for.
“Between VA compensation and SSD I earn about 150% of the average Indiana per capita salary.” That’s right, Johnny the Libertarian not only lives off the government, but is making 50% more than the average Hoosier.
“The Army was a dumb idea when my parents twisted my arm into it when I was younger but I guess I turned a bad experience into a good thing by pursuing disability with the VA. My kids will receive free college education. All student loans have been forgiven. My medical and dental care is free for life. I haven’t needed to work for nearly 10 years. It is great to do what I want, say what I want and have no boss.” I’m so telling Ayn Rand on you…
“24.4% of people in Indiana have a declared psych diagnosis. How many haven’t come for treatment? I like to joke that when we “psych diagnosed people” become the majority in this state (and we are growing as the country goes down the drain) that payback is gonna be a real bitch to the so-called “normal” people who treat us like N-words.” Hmmm… Is that how they treat you Johnny Boy?
“Some people tell me I ought to get a PhD or get a Law Degree. I’m sure I could get myself into these schools. But for what purpose? The bottom line is that SS and the VA say that I am “permanently unemployable”. If my parents had a family business it would work out well for me. If I screamed at people now and then, no problem. But in today’s world of work if you screw up in any way, your butt is out the door.” I’m not sure who’s telling this fool he should do post-graduate work. I’d be more inclined to suggest GED courses. Are all you fiscal conservatives, republicans, and libertarians getting this? He would go get a high-paying job, but what’s the point when Social Security and the Veteran’s Administration say that he’s “permanently unemployable” and doesn’t have to work? He might have to stop randomly screaming at people if he were forced to do the unthinkable and work for a living.
Once again, I would beg anyone thinking about voting for this lunatic to read the entire post. Did you know that WWII was fought so that John King could get a job as a nurse and spew racial hatred at his coworkers? Did you know that even though he’s on permanent disability that John King travels to Europe? John King himself is grateful for his circumstances because “What working stiff could afford that or have the time for it?” Did you know that John King thinks he deserves a ‘D’ in social skills rather than the ‘F’ his “shrink” gave him?
King has worked with SaveWhitePeople.com to produce some nonsense about the impending white genocide. This YouTube video entitled “White Genocide: Fact or Fiction” shows just how deluded he is and has raised eyebrows in the local news.
JOHN KING II -JOHNNY BOY IS MAD
John King is mad. Apparently he read our last article focusing on his mental health issues and was not a happy camper. So what does he do? He confirms beyond all reasonable doubt that the poster at the bipolar support group was indeed him by writing a post threatening to sue the support group. Unlike everyone else on that board he decided to not just use his handle but give out his full name and life story on scamming disability for behaviour problems under the guise of mental illness. Here posted this rant and then a copy of our article:
Here’s Johnny Boy doing his one man show which I’ve entitled, “I’m a Racist Nutjob”. Johnny gave his performance at the University of Southern Indiana in the wake of the Trayvon Martin murder. His sign reads:

I’m a bit disappointed with the level of effort put into this sign. Only one color of marker (black oddly enough). I put Johnny at about a fourth-grade reading level based on the grammar. There’s not even a picture to grab the eye. Your one-man protest earns a failing grade. Sorry Johnny, doesn’t look like you’re quite ready for college yet.

Here posted this rant and then a copy of our article:
This is my first visit to this forum since Sept 6, 2010. Recently I have been in a campaign for School Board in my Indiana county. Just a few days ago an article appeared on an Anti-White site known as HARM, Hoosier Anti Racist Movement. This is a violent group which seeks to enforce its beliefs on other people. Currently five of its members are being held in a Chicago prison on multiple felony charges. A certain group known as the Illinois European-American Economic Forum was having a lunch meeting in a upscale restaurant in a Chicago suburb (Tinley Park). In come about 20 masked people with hammers and bats and beat these diners and other unrelated people senseless. Now the same group of “do gooders” have an article about me. They have quotes from me taken from THIS FORUM. Every quote about mental illness was stolen from this site. Following is the article. It’s out there and I think all of you should see how SECURITY at this “Support Group” was breached. I am never going to disclose any personal details here again and I advise you not to do so either or you may face the same fate as me. When there is violence against me or my family If and when there is violence by these terrorists against me or my family (young children) I will be suing this group along with others. I think it’s extremely low class to make fun of someone because of their service connected illness.
Unlike these Anti-Whites who call any sort of pro-White civil rights activism “white supremacism” (which I am definitely not) I actually served this country in uniform.As it turns out, the people in his own support group like him just about as much as we at HARM do. One responder wrote:
And I would imagine you should spend less time worrying about the security of this website and consider the one that just gave me your address and telephone number. Took me less than five minutes. Simperingly easy. Yeah, if you’ve got half a brain then you’ve probably changed your number already, but the point stands: that shit can cause more potential damage to you than anything you’ve written here. By the way, if you haven’t changed your number then you’re even more stupid than I imagine you are. Yeah, I checked you out. Seems you’re all over the internet in a really bad way. And you’re worried about what is said HERE? If you’re too sick to hold down a job, how in the hell are you going to handle the position you’re seeking to win?John King wrote:

I tell people pretty much straight away that I’m bipolar. Nobody has treated me badly at all. I know it happens, but I really don’t think it’s as widespread as you imagine. Have you ever considered the possibility that at least some are reacting to your demeanor rather than your illness?John King wrote:

I think it’s extremely low class to make fun of someone because of their service connected illness.Okay, now you’re really a dumbass. I don’t care how many schools or programs you’ve danced with over the years. You need to do some homework. Let me lay this out for you since it’s obviously escaped your attention. BIPOLAR DISORDER DOESN’T COME FROM THE MILITARY; YOU’RE BORN WITH IT. Just because they found it and you got disability doesn’t mean it’s “service-connected”, it just means they figured out you had it. It’s genetic, so if you want to do anything good for your kids, learn to recognize the signs and WATCH THEM. If they need the help, get it for them before they have to suffer too long. The military didn’t create your illness. I spent 12 years in service to this country. I can trace my bipolar disorder all the way back to age six. Docs currently say they can find it as early as seven, but I can see it before that. Anyway, don’t paint the military for your illness, in part or in whole; blame your DNA. John King wrote:
I didn’t fight for your freedom and I didn’t do anything heroic.John King wrote:
I actually served this country in uniform.Ahem, yeah, I think you just said it best. Just grabbed that rope with zeal on that one. Remember to put the knot on the side of your neck and not in the back. You’ve got so much dirt on you that you could start a sandbox company. You’re a racist. I don’t care what bullshit sugar-coated term you like to use. I call it as it is; you’re a sick fucking racist and that’s evident to anyone who reads about you or watches your video or the newscast about you. You’re an oozing, angry, ugly sore on not only the face of America, but the face of the entire human race. [em added]
It’s very rare that I come across someone who is so unstable that I can only imagine that they are, indeed, beyond help. For the protection of the society, you should be in a straitjacket and a padded fucking cell. You are, without doubt, the most fucked-up person I have ever encountered on this site; certainly the only one I have ever had to rebuke so strongly.
I know you think you’re right and that I’m misguided, but I’ve learned enough about this illness to know mania when I see it. You’re delusional, you think you’re greater than everyone else, you’re overly zealous, and you just don’t seem to see it. If you can’t rent out the cell, at least get your damn meds adjusted.
Oh, and you’re fat and ugly, too. Just thought I’d throw that in. And if you’re gonna be in politics, in any manner, get used to people digging into you. It’s a dirty business and if you aren’t able to take it, they’ll skin you alive. Which may not be such a bad thing.
I just emailed HARM and gave them permission to reproduce any portion of this reply that they wish. I did, however, at least say that I could not give them permission to take anything from your post, only from mine. I really hope they fry your sorry ass.DAMN! I think Johnny Boy should be more worried about his support group coming after him than a bunch of law-abiding citizens like HARM. Give John King a call or stop by and ask him why he’s so mad!
John King 161 Schuetter Rd. Jasper IN 47546 (812)827-2289John King III – Johnny’s Rant at the BiPolar Support Group So as you already know, Johnny Boy King is mad. We’re getting a flood of new information about John King as it appears he’s managed to make a bunch of his fellow “activist” friends pretty mad. Mad enough to talk trash to antifa about him. The support group that we pulled all of Johnny’s psych history from is none to happy with Johnny either. The bipolarsupportgroup mods decided they didn’t want their site flooded with traffic over the racist neanderthal John King. They booted him off their site and deleted all his posts. But… just in case you missed it… We saved a copy for your reading pleasure:
Hello everyone! My name is John King. I live in Jasper, Indiana in south-western Indiana. I’m 42 years old. My experience with Bipolar began after my short and aborted time in the Army. I was not a soldier. I worked in an Army hospital. I didn’t fight for your freedom and I didn’t do anything heroic. I was totally unfit and unprepared to be an Army officer. My parents pushed me into applying for an Army scholarship to attend medical school. My parents when I was in college started pushing this medical school idea on me. It didn’t work out. I quit early into my 4th semester. But I still owed the Army time. On my exit physical it was noted that I had an undefined neurosis and that I had received psych help while in uniform. I was rated at 0% compensation. It was not until about 5 years later while in the VA system that a secretary asked me why I had never appealed my 0%. I started down the road of appeals, several. I say that I used my college education (BS, MAEd and grad school) to get where I’m at. Between VA compensation and SSD I earn about 150% of the average Indiana per capita salary.
So, my illness did not kill my earning potential. It just shifted the source. The Army was a dumb idea when my parents twisted my arm into it when I was younger but I guess I turned a bad experience into a good thing by pursuing disability with the VA. My kids will receive free college education. All student loans have been forgiven. My medical and dental care is free for life. I haven’t needed to work for nearly 10 years. It is great to do what I want, say what I want and have no boss. I have an MAEd but I never was able to be a teacher for a day. Without Bipolar I would be a medical doctor now. I’m not saying that would be a good life. But since I’ve done about 9 years of education after high school, if you add it all up, I have feeling of unworth about myself because I don’t have a career. Everybody talks about their career. I have none and I want to build a stone monument in my backyard say “In Memory of the Career I never had.” My parents pushed me into a field that I obviously was not meant for even though my knowledge of the sciences is great. Between my first and second years of medical school I got my first taste (just 2 months) of military service at a major base. I remember this female major with a very masculine voice and demeanor saying “We’re gonna work you hard in our Army hospitals.”. A doctor on base told me that for the first 3 years he worked 90 hours per week. I came back home crazy. I learned more from a student at my school who was a year in front of me. “You think it’s bad now, you wait till you go to an Army hospital” I can’t go into detail but I was messed up from then on. Around 10 years later I got involved in dental school, still trying to get my parents’ approval which I’ve never really received. I lacked the fine motor skills and my bipolar made it impossible. I then got into a nursing school but they canned me on the first day because of my political/religious associations. And they want me to believe that my grandfathers fought in Europe for my freedom. What freedom? This led to a suicide attempt and 2 week stay at a VA hospital. Then my wife (we’ve been married 12 years and have 2 kids) told me it was time to try a new strategy: disability. I have problems finding and keeping friends because my emotional intensity can be very high if I like something or I oppose it. I can’t buy whole life insurance because Indiana allows insurance dealers to reject anyone with psych history without questions. When I was in the Army I was turned down for a top secret clearance just for the reason that I admitted to seeing a psychiatrist on base and receiving anxiety medication. That’s one reason why I do not say the pledge or sing the anthem. And I never missed a day of work in the Army because of my problem. While I may have been inept and undertrained (actually I was put into a job that I had no training for instead of putting me into the job I had received advanced training for). I would still love to do that job to this day, being the head of the records section of a military hospital. But it will never come to pass. 24.4% of people in Indiana have a declared psych diagnosis. How many haven’t come for treatment? I like to joke that when we “psych diagnosed people” become the majority in this state (and we are growing as the country goes down the drain) that payback is gonna be a real bitch to the so-called “normal” people who treat us like N-words. Some people tell me I ought to get a PhD or get a Law Degree. I’m sure I could get myself into these schools. But for what purpose? The bottom line is that SS and the VA say that I am “permanently unemployable”. If my parents had a family business it would work out well for me. If I screamed at people now and then, no problem. But in today’s world of work if you screw up in any way, your butt is out the door. I’m kind of like Quasimodo in the “Hunchback of Notre Dame”. As long as I stay in the “church” (disability) I am safe and get everything I need in abundance. But when I got out in the real world, I’m in for a good beating by the “normal” people.
This world is so sick. The Military takes credit for my illness beginning on their dime. I tell people that I’m a disabled veteran and it gets me nowhere. All this public talk about “Support the troops”. Go to WalMart and buy your cheap yellow ribbon sticker. I’m sick of empty slogans. 1 out of 5 homeless people are veterans. That’s real respect for people who they claim “fought for our freedom” (another empty slogan). Remember, if my grandfathers had been fighting for my freedom in WWII, I would have been allowed to attend Nursing school. Nobody, nowhere, no how fought for my freedom and please don’t write back trying to argue with me on this point. It’s my opinion and it doesn’t affect or infringe on your opinion and life. Thanks. People ask me what I do for a living. I have to just tell them that I’m retired because the average person has no education in psych issues. If they think I’m young for being retired, well, let’s just say I made some good choices when I was younger. This is just camouflage. I am really upset at times that I don’t have this “career”. I worked my but off in school (#13 in high school graduation), had high enough grades in college to get into medical school and grad school (for my worthless MAEd) and later dental school. A shrink once told me he’d give me an A for intellect but a F for social skills. Come on … I said.
Can’t you give me a D. No, you get an F. I’m trying to avoid some of the rotten things my father did when I was growing up. I don’t drink, don’t smoke, unlike my father. I try to spend a lot of time with my kids especially outside during the warm parts of the year. I try to watch my anger with them. Maybe I, looking at my family tree, am the one who is ending the insanity of past generations. But still the lack of friends and the lack of a career will probably bother me as long as I live. I’ll probably outlive my “normal” class mates since my life is low in stress. Several years ago I went to my 20th high school reunion. A class mate of mine had finished the same medical school and gone thru residency. He looked about 10 years older than me and had lost most of his hair. I could tell by looking at his skin that he was an alcoholic. I told him that I was glad that he not I had become a doctor. My position in life besides his its financial perks has other advantages.I’m able to say and write whatever I please. I can even travel independently. I was in London in early May working on the campaign of my favorite party over there. What working stiff could afford that or have the time for it? So, in conclusion, my lfe is a mixed bag. The medications aren’t wonder drugs but they keep me stable around the house in normal situations. But when I get excited (I am a political animal) I’m like a top that was over wound. Any advice you guys and gals can give me on this career thing and finding friends would be much appreaciated. – Archived from Bipolarsupportgroup.netHmmm…. I wonder what political party it was that he was working for over in Britain… I assure you we’ll have more about John King coming in the future.

Chik-fil-A Claims To No Longer Support Political Agendas
There has been much controversy in the news about Chik-fil-A and their ties to the anti-gay movement. There are many reasons, including actual admittance, that warrant these allegations. Chik-fil-A was listed by the anti-gay marriage organization known as Pennsylvania Family Institute (PFI) as a co-sponsor of two marriage conferences. Chik-fil-A's chief operating officer Dan Cathy not only told the Christian news service Baptist Press that the company did support a “traditional family” but then he appeared on “The Ken Coleman Show” and stated that he believed advocating same-sex marriage would be “inviting God’s judment on our nation". Just yesterday, after months of public outcry and withdrawal of some corporate support, Chik-fil-A has claimed to longer"support political or social agendas". This decision has caused quite a backlash, not only amongst Christian Rightists, but amongst the white supremacist movement as well.
Quote and screen shots from Stormfront.org: "Many White Nationalists supported Chick-Fil-A because it was in our interests to stand up for the traditional values that were instrumental in creating Western Civilization."
We can assume, just as Rick Garcia, senior policy adviser for the Civil Rights Agenda has, that the motivations behind this "change of heart" are strictly financial. The need to sell more chicken and climb to the number one rank as the nations largest chicken chain is clearly more important to them than their twisted homophobic beliefs. So what does it mean if Chik-Fil-A has changed its policies? From our critical perspective this is a success because it has dried up funding that would otherwise be going to homophobic groups and nonprofits, and not because a capitalist corporation decided to become "moral". Under capitalism, a businesses very existence is based on the exploitation and alienation of every single living thing it reaches; from the person who grows/raises the food, to the person who cooks the food, to the person who serves the food, to the person who eats the food, and even to the food itself. It's not a matter of Chik-fil-A making "greedy" or "selfish" choices, it's the inescapable nature of capitalism. So we need not praise them, or Starbucks or any other business simply because they choose not to fund groups that promote homophobic bullshit. Against Chik-fil-A, against Starbucks....against homophobia and capitalism! For a classless, free society!
Quote and screen shots from Stormfront.org: "Many White Nationalists supported Chick-Fil-A because it was in our interests to stand up for the traditional values that were instrumental in creating Western Civilization."
We can assume, just as Rick Garcia, senior policy adviser for the Civil Rights Agenda has, that the motivations behind this "change of heart" are strictly financial. The need to sell more chicken and climb to the number one rank as the nations largest chicken chain is clearly more important to them than their twisted homophobic beliefs. So what does it mean if Chik-Fil-A has changed its policies? From our critical perspective this is a success because it has dried up funding that would otherwise be going to homophobic groups and nonprofits, and not because a capitalist corporation decided to become "moral". Under capitalism, a businesses very existence is based on the exploitation and alienation of every single living thing it reaches; from the person who grows/raises the food, to the person who cooks the food, to the person who serves the food, to the person who eats the food, and even to the food itself.

Early this morning (Sunday, Sep. 9th) Chicago antifascists threw chunks of rock through the windows of two businesses associated with neo nazis. The first was Excalibur tattoo & Body Piercing (2913 S. Harlem Ave Berwyn, IL) owned by long time neo nazi Will Leinberger, and the second was Jade Dragon tattoo (5331 W Bellmont Ave), who knowingly employ Wills twin brother, Fred Leinberger.
"Fred and Wills nazi days didn't end in the 90's. The Leinbergers attended the 2009 Hitler birthday celebration organized by Art Jones, the 2010 Hitler Birthday celebration organized by Patrick Leyland, and may or may not have attended the failed 2011 Hitler celebration organized once again by Art Jones."

William Nelson Of The Aryan Brotherhood
William Nelson is a long time white supremacist involved with the Aryan Brotherhood (AB), a white supremacist prison gang and organized crime syndicate in the United States with about 20,000 members in and out of prison. Allegedly he was one of the youngest men ever brought in. He is a 45 year old iron worker and has done three bids in Illinois, two in Michigan and a lengthy juvenile stretch in either California or Arizona, all adding up to a total of 23 years in prison. He has been arrested for robbery, assault, and one of his arrests was for a hate crime in which he took a cop out for the bare minimum as he had several weapons charges and assaults.
Tim Bishop of the Aryan Nations wrote a letter to the parole board in Michigan seeking to stop him from receiving parole in 1998 because William threatened to beat him for running his mouth about his armed robbery activities to the media.
Counselor McNabb at Pontiac Correctional center has been quoted saying "Nelson is a violent dangerous convict, he hates every one especially black & latino inmates. He has assaulted several other prisoners based solely on their race as well as staff and he writes threatening letters to staff all the time." Apparently they would not let him go to Protective Custody because they had concerns he'd try to "organize the whites". William does not like his photo being taken (see more here and here) and does not like crowds.
Nelson has "SS" lightning bolts tattooed on the left side of his neck and on the right side of his neck he has "Sinn Fein". Under his left inner bicep he has"AB" and "666". On the back of his left arm is "WHITE" and on the right is "WRATH"
William was married to Heather Marie Pittman on October 13th, 2011 in Mishawaka, Indiana in a KKK wedding ceremony performed by Imperial Wizard Ray Larsen. Heather is a white supremacist herself. She claims to be a direct descendant of Confederate General Albert Pike. On August 7th, 2012 she pleaded guilty to drug possession (Dupage County case no #2011CF1543). Heather allegedly has a history of heroin addiction and goes to a methadone clinic in Downers Grove weekly. She has been convicted in Texas for "unlawful sexual contact with a minor".
Nelson has close ties with the Gaylords street gang in Chicago and was arrested while on parole last August by DEA & ATF & DUMEG who tore up his house looking for drugs and guns. They found nothing but he spent 3 weeks in jail for "unlawful gang contact".

Illinois Finds Itself In The Midst Of Increasing Islamophobic Terror. What is to be done?
David M Conrad ((847) 583-9219 5717 Capulina Ave Morton Grove, IL 60053-3035 |
David has been living adjacent to the mosque for 12 years and causing problems the whole time.
One day later, on August 12th, a 7-Up bottle filled with acid was thrown at a Muslim Institution in Lombard, IL during Ramadan prayers. No one has been taken into custody and it would be impossible for us at South Side ARA to speculate as to who did it, but, for information's sake, there is one neo-Nazi we know of living in Lombard. He is a recruiter for the American Nazi Party (ANP), under the guidance of Paul Kozak.

We have received a tip from Loonwatcher Ali that another Muslim institution was attacked yesterday in a possible hate crime, this time in Lombard, Illinois. The prepetrators hurled a 7-Up bottled filled with acid at the school during Ramadan prayers. This is the second attack in as many days in Illinois and underscores a very quick rise in violence across the country.In the past month there has been a string of Islamophobic attacks, one in which 6 were killed.
This is the full text we received from Ali, apparently a press release from a Chicago based organization known as the Council of Islamic Organizations of Greater Chicago:
Last night the College Preparatory School of America (CPSA), a full time Islamic school in Lombard IL and a member of the CIOGC had a 7-up bottle with acid and other materials thrown at the school during the night time Ramadan Prayers. During the prayer worshippers heard a loud bang outside the school and went out to find an empty bottle thrown on the window of the school, there were no injuries. Lombard police were contacted and a report has been filed, an investigation is in process.
“This is not an isolated incident, a few days ago another CIOGC member institution the Muslim education Center in Morton Grove, IL was also attacked” said CIOGC Associate Director Ahlam Jbara “It is election year and the fear mongering from elected officials such as Representative Joe Walsh creates hate in communities such as Lombard, IL”
Judy Levey, CEO at the Jewish Council on Urban Affairs said, “We are deeply concerned about the recent string of events, which violently target faith minorities, and Muslims in particular. Our own Jewish historical experience of being a minority has taught us of the dangers of stereotyping and demonization a vulnerable community. The Jewish community must not, and will not, stay silent.”
On Friday, August 10, 2012 CIOGC held an interfaith press conference calling on Representative Joe Walsh to retract his bigoted statement on Muslim Americans. The faith communities in Illinois stand together against injustices in our State. We will not tolerate hate mongering; discrimination and personal campaign agenda’s that create division within our communities.
CIOGC urges DHS, Attorney General Office and other authorities to increase protection and investigation of these violent acts on Muslim institutions.
CIOGC urges Muslim institution to take extra precautions, be vigilent and recruit extra security. Additionally, report the incident immediately to your local police departments and CIOGC.
UPDATE I: CBS confirms the incident
LOMBARD, Ill. (CBS) — An Islamic school in west suburban Lombard is at least the second Muslim institution to report an attack this past weekend.
The Council of Islamic Organizations of Greater Chicago says the College Preparatory School of America, an Islamic school at 331 W. Madison St. in Lombard, was subjected to vandalism on Sunday night.
The council says someone hurled a 7-Up bottle filled with acid and other unspecified materials at the school during the nighttime Ramadan prayers.
During the prayer session, worshipers heard a loud bang and went to find an empty bottle thrown on the window of the school. No one was injured.
No one was in custody as of just before noon Monday, and there were on suspects, Lombard police told CBS 2.
Arson attack on Mosque in Joplin, Missouri. Taken from CHI News Service:
A mosque burned early Monday in a fire described as suspicious, just a month after an arsonist set fire to the building's roof.There were also pigs feet left at a house used as a mosque in Ontario, CA and a shooting by a white supremacist (Wade Michael Page) that left six dead at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin. Sikhism is actually a south Asian religion unrelated to Islam, but we believe that it's possible Wade may have thought it was an attack on Muslims given the context of current events and the trend of idiocy amongst a good portion of the white supremacist scene. There is also a pretty sick Zionist advertisement on the buses in San Fransisco , but the US is not the only place where Islamophobia is intensifying; In Stockholm, Sweden on August 4th, Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, and the EDL staged a poorly attended anti-Islam rally where they were severely outnumbered by the opposition.
Muslims left the Joplin Islamic Society after Ramadan prayers about 11:20 p.m., said Imam Lahmuddin, the society's religious leader. A passerby reported the fire four hours later.
“It was really burning when we got here,” said Bill Dunn, fire chief in Carl Junction, the city just north of Joplin where the mosque is located. “The fire got inside and broke through the roof.”
Dunn said the fire is suspicious, though investigators cannot yet prove it was arson. Agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms retrieved a surveillance video box, which they are sending to the FBI for analysis, he said.
The blaze happened a little more than a month after a man attempted to set fire to the building. The man has not been identified, but his image was caught on surveillance cameras on the morning of July 4. There is a $15,000 reward for information leading to arson charges.
The FBI also investigated the torching of a sign at the mosque in 2008. That arson was never solved.
“This should not stop us from serving God,” said Lahmuddin. “We still have to fulfill our obligation. We will do our prayer in other places. If we don’t find a place, we will do our prayers in our home."
The fire happened in the middle of the holy month of Ramadan, which Muslims mark with fasting. Many make more frequent visits to the mosque for daily prayers during the month.
Omar Ahmed, 15, said some local Muslims stay at the mosque overnight during Ramadan, but no one was there at the time of the fire. He arrived about 5 a.m. to the mosque surrounded in pillars of smoke..
On August 8, 2012, Rep. Joe Walsh, at a town hall meeting in Elk Grove Village said there is “One thing I’m sure of is that there are people in this country – there is a radical strain of Islam in this country – it’s not just over there – trying to kill Americans every week. It is a real threat, and it is a threat that is much more at home now than it was after 9/11,” and “It’s here. It’s in Elk Grove. It’s in Addison. It’s in Elgin. It’s here."
Another story of interest can be found in Murfreesboro, TN, where a mosque facing Islamophobic opposition finally opened for worship.
Taken from Fox news:
In a suburb 30 miles south of Nashville, the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro has faced legal challenges and illegal threats over the past two years.Our thoughts?
Shortly after construction began in 2010, a vandal spray-painted the phrase "not welcome" on a sign announcing the new mosque. Federal investigators were called in after an arson fire destroyed excavating equipment at the site. And members of the congregation said they received threatening letters, phone calls and emails.
Residents opposing the mosque filed an unsuccessful lawsuit to block its construction by claiming that Islam was not a real religion and that Muslims intended to replace the U.S. Constitution with Sharia Law.
Construction nearly halted in May when a local judge ruled that Rutherford County officials had failed to provide sufficient notice of the meeting in which the building was approved. But U.S. attorneys intervened, arguing that the county judge had created a separate standard for the Islamic Center. A federal judge ruled in favor of the mosque.
In some of these cases there are suspects or arrests, in others, no leads at all. Some would find the latter of outcomes to be a failure. Even those of us in South Side ARA, who have far more fundamental critiques of the state, find it interesting that in the case of Conrad there is no hate crime charge.
We see relying on the state to deal with this issue as a major mistake. Not simply because of the failure to call David Conrad's attack a hate crime. We know that such a charge would hardly deal with the source of the sickness. It is a mistake for far more fundamental reasons. The state couldn't give a fuck less about the nature of the attacks outside of the fact that lack of arrests may threaten their perceived legitimacy, and will not help further the justification for their existence. Lets not forget the state-sanctioned xenophobic repression of Arab-Americans, Muslims, and Middle Easterners in the US post-911, the criminalization of their identity.
The State's approach, regardless of their incentive, is purely reactionary rather than preventative. How are they attacking Islamophobia?
We must monitor the far right, the white supremacists, the fascists. These are the type of people or ideologies that are creating these attacks. Police organizations such as the FBI may monitor these individuals and groups but without concrete evidence of illegal doings, and so long as there are no whispers of anti-State rhetoric (because we know when the State feels challenged law need not apply), not much will happen. We must challenge them based on their ideology and organizing efforts rather than simply wait for them to act in an "illegal" or hostile manner.
We advocate taking the fight directly to the fascists. Disrupting white nationalist organizing efforts, be they propaganda or action, directly challenges the State's role as mediator in social affairs. We should also not be shocked or surprised by the violent outbursts of white supremacists like Michael Wade Page, considering the genocidal bent that is the basis of their ideology. While there is no way to prevent all violent outbursts and attacks by white supremacists, stopping their organizing prevents them from spreading their ideas and slows the recruitment of new members filling their ranks.
Stop being shocked or saddened. Get pissed and get wild!
