Denial of the Holocaust and the existence of a worldwide Jewish conspiracy to subvert the white race were the main themes at the annual convention of the Australian League of Rights, the oldest and largest racist organization in Australia.
Aging white supremacist leader Eric Butler told 150 of his cohorts in Melbourne last week that a “new national campaign to fight the Jewish efforts to have the league outlawed” has become urgent.
He cited the success of the campaign to introduce anti-racist legislation in two of Australia’s six states during the last 13 months.
Butler, in his opening address, also stressed the priority of having the Holocaust exposed as “one of the great myths of our time.”
The keynote speaker, Nigel Jackson, an English teacher at Carey Grammar, Melbourne’s respected Baptist high school, identified Jews as “a clandestine force in the nation,” part of a “worldwide conspiracy.”
He complained of “an excessive degree of Jewish influence on daily political life, media and parliament in Australia” and claimed Jews were conducting “witch hunts” to outlaw Australian racists.
Jackson praised John Bennett, Australia’s most prominent revisionist, who says the Holocaust was “a Jewish myth perpetrated to extort money and sympathy from the West.”
Bennett’s book, “Your Rights 1990,” has been challenged under the new anti-racist laws in New South Wales for its claims concerning the Holocaust and Jewish influence in Australia.
As a result, a printing house in West Australia that specializes in racist and conspiracy theory books will publish future editions, the conference was told.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
