Entry: Big Brother in Brussels Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/big_brother_in_brussels#6745 Post contents: This is a very good and incisive analysis. Re the BNP, while the prosecution of Griffin was a grostesque travesty, they have repudiated anti-Semitism, and they have moved sharply away from neo-Nazism, their roots are in fascism - the British Union of Fascists - and more importantly, they do remain a race-based party; their Constitution bans non-whites from membership. For most Brits, while they have no desire to see British culture destroyed, open racialism is un-British and not acceptable. Were it not for their ban on non-white membership I expect the BNP could attract many Indian, Sikh, Chinese/east-Asian, and probably some conservative black Christian support. By contrast, as you point out, the Vlaams Belang can in no way be described as fascists, racists or Nazis, they are moderately conservative Flemish nationalists, and the grotesque assault on them on 9/11 (including the arrest of several non-Belgian MEPs!) was a direct attack on the liberty of all Flemings and all Europeans who oppose the new totalitarian order.
