The British National Party
(BNP) is a far-right and whites-only political party in the United Kingdom.
The party is not represented in the Parliament of the United
Kingdom. According to its constitution, the BNP is "committed to
stemming and reversing the tide of non-whiteimmigration and to restoring, by legal
changes, negotiation and consent the overwhelmingly white makeup of
the British population that existed in Britain prior to 1948." The
BNP also proposes "firm but voluntary incentives for immigrants and
their descendants to return home." The BNP asserts that there are
biologicalracial
differences that determine the behaviour and character of
individuals of different races, although it also claims that it
does not regard whites as superior to other ethnic groups. The
party claims that preference for one's own ethnicity is a
part of human nature. Historically, under John Tyndall's leadership,
the BNP was overtly anti-Semitic; however, under the
leadership of Nick
Griffin the party has members with Jewish ancestry and has
tried to win Jewish votes. The party has said that it does not
consider the Hindu or Sikh religions to have a
significantly detrimental or threatening effect, although it does
not accept practising Sikhs or Hindus as culturally or ethnically
British.
Schutzstaffel
and Sicherheitsdienst troops suppress the
Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
They forced these captured Jews to
leave their shelter and march to the Umschlagplatz for
deportation. This image comes from Jürgen Stroop's report to Heinrich
Himmler from May 1943. The original German caption reads:
"Forcibly pulled out of dug-outs." The SD trooper pictured second
from the right is Josef Blösche, who was identified by
Polish authorities using this photograph. Blösche was tried for war
crimes in Erfurt, East Germany in 1969,
sentenced to death and executed in July of that year.
If relativism signifies
contempt for fixed categories and those who claim to be the bearers
of objective immortal truth, then there is nothing more
relativistic than Fascist attitudes and activity. From the fact
that all ideologies are of equal value, we Fascists conclude that
we have the right to create our own ideology and to enforce it with
all the energy of which we are capable.

vigilante group set to begin foot patrols in Northern Italy, causes
controversy when it unveils its uniform in Milan, which is seen as
similar to that of the blackshirts.[6]
