I wrote the following entry on February 20th 2021, George Washington’s birthday and Inauguration Day in the U. S., to an email list. At the time many were speculating on the origins of the radical left Neo-Marxist group conducting violent riots, vandalism, assaults, murders and general defiance of law & order around the nation, but especially in Portland Oregon.
The following passage exposes the origins of Antifa in America and elsewhere in the world today. You will note the Communist and Freemasonic influences. These are still operative today, though more sophisticated, better funded, more powerful and far less opposed.
“Meanwhile (mid 1920s) France accorded hospitality to innumerable fuori usciti (outsiders) and allowed Paris to become a center for their activities. It is a common error to regard these people as mere political emigres, suffering for their convictions, the truth being that a great number are dangerous conspirators, Italian rebels against the Fascist regime who have taken advantage of their immunity from Fascist legislation to hatch plots and carry out crimes of violence not only against the representatives of their own Government, but against working-men and other peaceful citizens, simply because these happened to be Fascists. No less than thirty-four murders of this kind have taken place in France, Belgium and Luxembourg during the past few years. Yet whilst any arbitrary act, real or imagined, on the part of the Fascist Government receives the widest publicity and condemnation in respectable middle-class papers in this country (Britain), such for example the Manchester Guardian, anti-Fascist outrages are either not mentioned or actually condoned. This terrorist side of anti-Fascism is in fact a part of the Bolshevist movement, and the "International Anti-Fascist League", to which a number of British and French Communists belong, is a completely Bolshevist organization, with headquarters in Berlin.
“At the same time the Grand Orient has acted as a center of anti-Fascist activity and propaganda. The fuori usciti have thus had the assistance of French Freemasons in their work of embittering relations between their two countries. An eminent French statesman said last year to a leading Italian statesman words to this effect: "I too am in favor of good relations between Italy and France, but there are too many Masonic influences at work for us to be able for the moment to arrive at an agreement."
-Surrender of an Empire, Nesta Webster, Self-published?, 1931, Great Britain, pg 293
This great female British historian also wrote the book Secret Societies and Subversive Movements (1924), so her knowledge of Freemasonry was already extensive. The fact that the National Socialist Germans also in essence fought a war against Freemasons as well as Communists, Jewish bankers, and the “great powers” of the captured West supports Webster’s understanding of Antifa.
Another researcher on our email list posted this account by the Epoch Times (Chinese nationalists, basically) about 6 months prior:
The Communist Origins of the Antifa Extremist Group
I will provide some key quotes here, leaving out the tired trope of conflating Fascism with Communism, and other anti-Fascist demonization propaganda Epoch Times ironically weaves into its account. I have debunked such conflation before and need not engage that here. We are concerned with the historic origins of Antifa:
”The group's (Antifa’s) original intent was to bring out a communist dictatorship in Germany.”
“The organization was initially part of the Soviet Union’s front operations to bring about communist dictatorship in Germany…”
”The organization can be traced to the “united front” of the Soviet Union’s Communist International (Comintern) during the Third World Congress in Moscow in June and July 1921, according to the German booklet “80 Years of Anti-Fascist Action” by Bernd Langer, published by the Association for the Promotion of Anti-Fascist Culture. Langer is a former member of the Autonome Antifa, formerly one of Germany’s largest Antifa organizations, which disbanded in 2004.
“The Soviet Union was among the world’s most violent dictatorships, killing an estimated 20 million people, according to “The Black Book of Communism,” published by Harvard University Press. The Soviet regime is second only to the Chinese Communist Party under Mao Zedong, which killed an estimated 65 million people.”
I know the “united front” spoken of as the “popular front," different names same Soviet strategy. I also have studied that the Communist death toll in Russia was over 60 million, according to Alexander Solzhenitsyn and others. The Jew Genrich Yagoda oversaw the death by starvation of up to 8 million Ukrainians in 1933-4 alone.
“The idea of the united front strategy was to bring together left-wing organizations in order to incite communist revolution. The Soviets believed that following Russia’s revolution in 1917, communism would next spread to Germany, since Germany had the second-largest communist party, the KPD (Communist Party of Germany).
“It was at the Fourth World Congress of the Comintern in 1922 that the plan took shape. Moscow formed the slogan “To the Masses” for its united front strategy and sought to join together the various communist and workers’ parties of Germany under a single ideological banner that it controlled.”
“Benito Mussolini, a Marxist and socialist who had been expelled from Italy’s Socialist Party in 1914 for his support for World War I, later founded the fascist movement as his own political party. He took power through his “March on Rome” in October 1922. In Germany, Adolf Hitler became head of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party (NSDAP) in 1921 and mounted a coup attempt in 1923.
“The KPD decided to use the banner of anti-fascism to form a movement.”
“On Aug. 23, 1923, the Politburo of the Communist Party of Russia held a secret meeting, and according to Langer, “all the important officials spoke out for an armed insurrection in Germany.”
“The KPD was at the front of this call, launching a movement under the banner of United Front Action and branding its armed “anti-fascist” wing under the name Antifaschistische Aktion (“Antifascist Action”), which Antifa still carries in Germany, and from which the Antifa organizations in other countries are rooted.”
Webster identifies the root earlier, among the Antifa members expelled from Italy in 1922. It appears the Soviet organizing, funding and directing of Antifa became intensive in 1923.
“The Unity Congress of Antifa, (was) held at the Philharmonic Opera House in Berlin, on July 10, 1932. The congress was organized by the Communist Party of Germany as a rallying point to defeat the… (National Socialist) Party.”
“At this time, Hitler and his Party had begun to emerge on the world stage, and… employed a similar group to Antifaschistische Aktion…”
Here Epoch Times is referencing the SA, Sturm Abteilung, which translates as Storm Detachment. This Party citizen militia was its self-defense corps, a truly anti-Antifascist sub group devoted to security and defense against Antifa, working to ensure National Socialist meetings, political rallies and votes could proceed uninterrupted. Basically the SA kicked Antifa butt in order to allow the NSDAP to conduct its fully legal and political activities in the streets and plazas, in the halls and at the ballot box. So many men wanted to join the SA that Hitler had to limit its membership so it would not appear a threat to the German national military.
“Antifaschistische Aktion, meanwhile, began to attract some members who opposed the arrival of actual fascism in Germany and who did not subscribe to—or were potentially unaware of—the organization’s ties to the Soviet Union.”
“However, the violence instigated by Antifaschistische Aktion largely had an opposite effect. The ongoing tactics of violence and intimidation of all rival systems under the Antifa movement, along with its violent ideology, drove many people toward fascism.
“The Communists’ violent revolutionary rhetoric, promising the destruction of capitalism and the creation of a Soviet Germany, terrified the country’s middle class, who knew only too well what had happened to their counterparts in Russia after 1918…”
“‘Appalled at the failure of the government to solve the crisis, and frightened into desperation by the rise of the Communists, “they began to leave the squabbling little factions of the conventional political right and gravitate towards the (National Socialists) instead.”
“…from the beginning, the KPD was a member of the Comintern, and “within a few years, it became a Stalinist party,” both ideologically and logistically. …it even became “financially dependent on the Moscow headquarters.”
“Leaders of the KPD, with Antifa as their on-the-ground movement for violence and intimidation of rival political parties, fell under the command of the Soviet apparatus. Many KPD leaders would later become leaders in the communist German Democratic Republic, including of its infamous Ministry for State Security, the Stasi.”
Here we will end our presentation of Epoch Times’ account of the origins of Antifa. It is intriguing to note that Antifa at the time had the official Communist Party of Germany as its patron and sponsor. Today Antifa has the Democrat Party as its patron and sponsor, though that party itself is beholden to the Judeo-Masonic Zionist bankster power in the U.S., just as the main corporate media, much of academia, to some extent by passively the Republican Party, law enforcement and much else are also patrons and sponsors of Antifa.
As in its origins, so in its present manifestation.
Fascism was an interesting movement and what's important to understand is that it was a defensive reaction against the Bolshevist project in Russia, Ukraine and Europe that had killed millions of civilians before the official outbreak of WW2 in 1939.
