Black and Red Terrorist Internationals

American neo-Nazis linking up with Hamas, Hezbollah, the PLO, and other Middle Eastern terrorist groups backed by Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Libya? A lot of people seem to have a hard time imagining such a union. They wouldn’t if they were familiar with the sordid history and geo-politics of international terrorism. The Black International, a terrorist network of former World War II Nazis and Fascists and their younger proselytes, operated throughout Europe during the 1960s and ’70s, with deadly effect. And it is still alive.
United by Hatred
Now, as then, the neo-Nazis cooperate with the Red International, the network of international terrorists funded, trained, supplied, and directed by Russia, China, Cuba, North Korea, and other surrogate regimes of the communists, including a multitude of Middle Eastern terrorist organizations. A Black summit in Paris on March 28, 1970 helped launch a major drive to recruit white European youth for Yasir Arafat’s Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). Prominent among those present was Jean Roberts Debbaudt, an ex-SS officer who placed his Belgian Rexist Party "totally and unconditionally at the service of the Palestine Resistance." Other such conferences followed, cementing the ties between the black shirts, the PLO, the IRA, and other terrorist elements. Colonel Qaddafi of Libya provided funding, arms, training, and sanctuary. Besides having a common statist philosophy and totalitarian world view, these miscreants are united by a burning hatred for Israel, the United States, Christianity, and "bourgeois" capitalist society.
At a Black summit held at the Rome Hilton in 1974, Qaddafi sent his prime minister, Ahmed Jalloud, loaded with money bags for the noble effort. The Libyan dictator was, at the same time, helping finance the Palestinian terror network in Paris run by the Venezuelan communist Illich Ramirez Sanchez, also known as Carlos the Jackal, whose main banker — and Soviet KGB control officer — was Antonio Dages Bouvier. Earlier, in 1971, millionaire communist Giangiacomo Feltrinelli, scion of one of Italy’s wealthiest families and a founder of Italy’s murderous Red Brigades, had met secretly in Switzerland with Valerio Borghese, Italy’s "Black Prince" of the neo-Fascist terrorists, to coordinate attacks on their mutual enemies: established democratic order, Israel, and Zionism. Franco Freda, the neo-Nazi-Maoist, who was later convicted and given a life sentence for the 1969 bombing of Milan’s Bank of Agriculture, held a rally and fundraiser in Padua to honor Yasir Arafat’s terror exploits.
German neo-Nazis who were also members of the PLO included Odfried Hepp and Udo Albrecht, both of whom also worked for the Stasi, the communist secret police of the former East Germany. During the Persian Gulf War, German neo-Nazi leader Michael Kuhnen, founder of the Anti-Zionist League, negotiated an agreement to provide Saddam Hussein with 100 neo-Nazi troops. He died before he could fulfill that contract, but French neo-Nazi leader Michael Faci stepped in to recruit an unknown number of "storm troopers" to fight for Iraq.
Gary Lauck, a rabid racist from Nebraska known as the "Farm Belt Fuehrer," who was arrested and convicted in Germany for smuggling banned Nazi propaganda to neo-Nazi groups in that country, is reported to have frequent contacts with Middle Eastern terrorist groups. He also wrote a manifesto entitled "Strategy, Propaganda, and Organization," filled with Marxoid dialectical drivel and calls for the integration of militant extremist groups worldwide into a global terrorist network.
Links to the OKC Bombing
Lauck’s friend, former Oklahoma Ku Klux Klan factotum Dennis Mahon, appears to have attempted to put that plan into practice. Mahon, a frequent visitor to the Aryan Nations compound in Idaho, was also an habitue of the Aryan Nations sister community in rural eastern Oklahoma known as Elohim City. The Marxism-spouting Mahon admits to being closely associated with the Aryan Republican Army bank robbers and to admiring the IRA terrorists. He boasts of his connections to Saddam Hussein’s intelligence service and admits to having been in its pay, beginning during the Persian Gulf War, when he organized several rallies for Iraq. During an interview with a Brazilian television crew, Mahon unrolled and proudly held up a poster of Yasir Arafat, reportedly one of his heroes.
Mahon also admits his close friendship with German soldier Andreas Strassmeir, whom Tim McVeigh telephoned at Elohim City before the Oklahoma City bombing. It is Mahon and Strassmeir who Carol Howe, the "key" informant for the FBI and ATF at Elohim City, insists are the prime suspects in the OKC bombing. Strassmeir, who was living in the U.S. illegally, was spirited out of the U.S. through Mexico several months after the bombing by attorney Kirk Lyons, a legal activist for racists and militant national socialists. On July 13, 1997 the Dublin Sunday Times reported that Strassmeir had moved to Dublin and was associating with Sinn Fein, the political arm of the IRA. Earlier, informant Carol Howe had reported that Strassmeir had received detonators for the OKC explosive charges from his IRA blasting buddies. Completely independent of Howe, federal informant Cary Gagan had stated (in July of 1995) that he had met in Mexico City with his Middle Eastern bombing co-conspirators — and a "former" member of the IRA who was providing expertise and detonators for the planned bombing operations in the U.S.
