ON TODAY'S BROADCAST, I'll be talking about the dangers of
compromising our truths to gain political advantage; and we'll be
broadcasting the recent interview I gave to Iran's Mehr News Agency on
the critical situation in the Middle East.
Before I begin, I want to thank all of the National Vanguard
members who met with me in New Orleans last weekend -- and the many who
signed their membership applications right on the spot. Special thanks
should go to National Vanguard members from California, including
Drahomir Stojkovic who chaired a successful National Vanguard meeting,
one of two; to Aaron Collins and David Pringle and NationalVanguard.org
editors Neil Camberly and David Mullenax who added a great deal to our
meetings, which by the way included at least a fifth of those present
at the Conference; to the many members of the Tampa National Vanguard
Unit who came in force to promote our pro-White music and literature;
to Evan Thomas who provided beautiful traditional fiddle music for the
entire conference; to Gordon Springberg and the other Michigan National
Vanguard members who provided our National Vanguard Update brochures
and membership applications; to National Vanguard activist April Gaede
and her daughters Lynx and Lamb of the band Prussian Blue, who provided
with their music what were the most moving moments of the entire event.
And to all of you who offered support and words of wisdom and offers of
help, I thank you all. And I thank David Duke for organizing and making
this event possible.

On last week's program, you heard the speech which I gave at the
European American Conference in New Orleans. As many of you who
attended the conference -- or who listened to it on the Internet --
know, there was some controversy among the attendees and among the
speakers during the panel session as to the direction the Cause of
White people should take in the future.
[

Present at the conference were representatives of European
nationalist parties including the French Front National (FN) and the
British National Party (BNP). Many of the attendees at the conference
interpreted parts of my speech and some of my remarks in the panel
discussion as criticisms of the Jewish-friendly and even
integration-friendly positions of those two parties. And that
interpretation is correct. Let me explain.
[
http://nationalvanguard.org/story.php?id=5096 ]
First let me say that I was impressed by the willingness of these
White leaders to attend this conference. (Let me also say that that my
criticisms have no connection with my high regard for John Tyndall,
founder of the BNP, who spoke at last year's conference.) This was a
conference at which our uncompromising activist organization, National
Vanguard, took a very prominent part -- and it was a conference
organized by the man who wrote the bestselling
Jewish Supremacism,
David Duke. Considering that these political parties have taken public
positions considerably distancing themselves from the forthright truths
that David Duke tells and we in National Vanguard tell about Jewish
power and the need for a government answerable to White people only,
that took some courage. The clear implication is that these leaders
fully
know the truth, but must temper their statements for
political advantage -- and to avoid the fines and imprisonment that
will be their fate if they speak the truth with utter frankness in
their homelands, where draconian 'hate speech' laws criminalize free
expression.
When we are tempted to criticize our European brethren, it is also
well to remember how much more successful they have been in gaining
public support for their organizations compared to our success on this
side of the Atlantic. It gives one pause. I attribute part of that
success to precisely those "hate speech" laws we so rightly decry. In
addition to stifling words that need to be spoken, those laws also
stifle some words that we'd be better off stifling. While they cause
real suffering for our people and real oppression for many true
patriots, they also crimp the style of
agents provocateurs and
of the irresponsible folks whose emotional outbursts so often frighten
away good White people from our ranks. They enforce some discipline in
our ranks -- though we'd be much better off enforcing such discipline
ourselves, and it is quite shameful that the Jewish supremacists who
are the driving force behind such laws had to inadvertently do it for
us. Other reasons for the success of White-oriented European groups
include 1) the inability of Europeans on an overcrowded continent to
run to Whiter pastures like Americans still can; 2) the greater
rootedness of White Europeans in their traditional cultures and
identities as compared to White Americans; 3) the greater presence of
media not under the control of Jews, including in some cases
state-owned media; and 4) the relative strength of the scientific
worldview and the relative unimportance of fundamentalist religion in
Europe, which in the United States has mutated into a powerful force
for multiracialism and Zionism.
Many American racialists see the relative success of these European
groups and want to emulate it. Others see the weakening and
self-censorship of our message exemplified by many of these European
parties as potentially fatal to our Cause.
At one point in a broadcast from the conference hotel with David
Duke, Stormfront founder and owner Don Black likened ideological
purists to people who strut their correctness and radicalism at the
expense of success, making an analogy to a pedestrian who crosses a
busy street when he has the light in his favor, and is immediately
struck down by a truck, and, as he lies in the street bleeding and
dying, justifies his crossing by saying "But I was right! I had a green
light!"
There's a lot to be said for Mr. Black's analogy. Success in saving
our people is what really matters. If we fail, it won't matter how
ideologically pure we were. Even if we engrave our principles on our
tombstones, we will have no White descendants to read them or remember
or care. We must succeed.
But equally important is
remaining true to our core vision of
who we are (men and women of the European race), who our Opponent is
(the Jewish power structure), and what we are trying to accomplish
(building an infrastructure that can grow into a true sustainable White
community that will survive hard times and eventually secure White
living space under a racially-conscious White government). If you
win every election for the next 100 years, but you fail to secure White
living space -- or even desire it anymore -- then success has totally
eluded you, and you will have no White descendants to congratulate you
on your electoral victories.
Last week I used the example of the Democratic party to show how a
once-pro-White organization could be corrupted and taken over by our
enemies if it made winning elections its primary goal. I said, in part:
"Just over 100 years ago the Democratic party in the United States
was the party of states' rights. The Democratic party was the party of
the White working man. The Democratic party was the party of racial
segregation, racial separation, and racial integrity. But neither the
members nor the leaders of the Democratic party were sufficiently aware
of the forces the Opponent had arrayed against them. Sadly, only a few
even knew who the Opponent was. And most of them were not men of
principle -- they were men of expediency. 'Whatever works' was their
watchword. And, when Franklin Roosevelt swept into power on a wave of
Jewish money, Jewish advisors, and a tsunami of vile lies and
deceptions, the party of racial separation and the White working man
was quickly transformed into the party of Affirmative Action, unlimited
immigration, Jewish supremacism, and diseased sodomites. But they did
win a lot of elections. A great success, that."
And I am sure that if you had warned the leaders of the Democratic
party in the late 19th century that in a few short decades, their party
would come to embody nearly the exact opposite of the principles it
then upheld, they would have laughed in your face. They would have told
you that the party leadership was in good hands and that you could
depend on the men who held the reins of power to do what was right. How
wrong they were.
Now there is a place in each of our nations for a political party
which appeals to White people on a mass scale -- reaching out for
support and votes to a large number of Whites who have only the most
basic and even in some cases marginal understanding of White identity
and the crisis which threatens our race's very existence. Such a party
should not lie to our people, but it may at times be forced by
political realities and repressive laws to refrain from spelling out
the whole truth. Where such parties exist and are led by men and women
with a full understanding of our racial plight, I wish them all success
and hope they win every election they contest. Such parties may
constitute one tool in our arsenal as we defend our biological
existence.
But they should not be ends in themselves. They
should not be the tail, not the dog. If they become ends in themselves,
without firm control by fully-enlightened and absolutely dedicated
racialists, they will end up no better than the Democratic and
Republican parties, each of which in its day was seen by many as a
vehicle for White interests.
The power behind pro-White political parties must consist of a
dedicated cadre of leaders thoroughly committed to not just a new party
in power, but to a new racially-progressive society and a new
race-based civilization, with the continuity of our ideas from
generation to generation, as leadership passes from the old to the
young over the decades, being one of their very highest priorities.
The leadership of our parties must come from a vibrant and viable
racially-conscious White community, which intentionally grooms its
leaders from those who have fully understood and fully assimilated our
biological worldview. And our parties -- implicitly -- and the White
community itself -- explicitly -- must be governed by the principles
inherent in that biological worldview.
Just being governed -- for now, for a single generation -- by those
who accept the biological worldview is not enough. Steps must be taken
to ensure that less principled leaders can never gain power over the
institutions we have created.
Look at what happened to America. Our founding fathers and
prominent leaders for more than a century -- even up to Lincoln
himself, whatever his flaws -- were racial separatists, who created a
nation in which only Whites could be citizens, and certainly they
intended that principle to remain unchallenged as long as the United
States should exist. Even the strong advocates of an end to Black
slavery, like Jefferson and Monroe, favored a racial separation so
thoroughgoing that it placed the different races on different
continents!
But where did it all lead? To the present, my friends, the terrible
present... where White children are a dwindling, hated, and endangered
minority in what was once the land of the White pioneers.
The Founding Fathers showed us in a thousand ways that they wanted
a White future. Jefferson said miscegenation should be a felony and
that the different races should not live under the same government. The
first Congress passed the Naturalization Act of 1790, which stood until
1952 and declared that only White people could become citizens of our
nation. James Monroe and Francis Scott Key lent their names and their
reputations to a plan to repatriate freed slaves back to Africa, a plan
which Lincoln also supported. But they also failed us. They failed to
see what was needed to make sure that White future became a reality.
They failed to make the basis of the new republic explicitly racial.
They failed to enshrine its racial basis in the constitution in
language so unmistakable that it could never be misconstrued. Had they
done so, we would be immeasurably better off. It is true that even the
best constitution is an imperfect defense against genocide and evil,
but if the White race had been protected by the Founders with as much
armor as they gave freedom of speech and freedom of religion, the
Jewish supremacists would have made far less progress in their drive to
obliterate us.
So what am I saying? I am saying that we need a racial movement and
a racial community which is as explicit in its principles as the
Founding Fathers should have been in our Constitution, with its members
and leaders sharing a deep and scientific understanding of the issues
we face as a people. This racial community will be the vanguard which
leads our people to freedom and self-determination. This racial
community, of which National Vanguard represents the bare beginning,
could operate political parties, or alternatively provide the seedbed
from which the leaders of those parties are selected,
but neither the political parties -- nor any mass outreach program -- should be ends in themselves.
We should not forget that we live for a day which we may never see
in our lifetimes. We should not forget that we live for a day when
White children can walk untrammeled and free from fear, aspiring to
higher and more beautiful things than we can even dream of.
We should remember the words of Emerson: "The man who knows how
will always have a job. The man who also knows why will always be his
boss. As to methods there may be a million and then some, but
principles are few. The man who grasps principles can successfully
select his own methods. The man who tries methods, ignoring principles,
is sure to have trouble."

Shortly before the conference in New Orleans, I was contacted by a
reporter for Iran's Mehr News Agency, who interviewed me. The interview
has been published by the widely-read news service, and the full
English version of the interview follows. I began by introducing
myself:
KAS: Thanks very much for the opportunity to speak with you.
My name is Kevin Alfred Strom and I serve as Director and Editor for
National Vanguard, America's leading organization for men and women of
European descent. We recently published an article about Iran which
your readers may want to read:
[
http://www.nationalvanguard.org/story.php?id=3987 ]
MEHR News: The American Israel Public Affairs Committee
(AIPAC) is now holding its annual Policy Conference -- the most
important event of the year for this pro-Israel group. As you may be
aware the Committee had an espionage scandal last year, directly linked
to AIPAC attempting to get secret U.S. intelligence on Iran. How do you
assess this process?
KAS: I believe that despite the stranglehold that Jews have
on the U.S. mass media -- and through the media on almost all
politicians, Republican or Democrat -- there still are patriotic and
honest elements within the government.
The investigation of AIPAC and the resulting arrest of Franklin
indicates a move by federal law enforcement agents and officials who
are alarmed by the abuse of power and criminal acts of the Zionist Jews
and their non-Jewish neocon agents within the Bush administration.
The Jewish elements within the government will be pushing from all
sides to make Franklin the only scapegoat and stymie a full
investigation, however, and it remains to be seen what the outcome will
be.
The largely Jewish-controlled press in this country is essentially
burying this story, and the average American seldom if ever hears of
it. It is mentioned, but not highlighted: their usual technique.
One is reminded of the near-total silence of the "U.S." media
regarding the "Israeli Art Student" spy case -- which involved the
capture of the largest spy ring in American history, yet it was treated
as a non-story by the press. And, on direct orders from the Jewish
now-Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff, the Zionist agents were
returned to Israel without a single charge being filed.
See: [
http://www.nationalvanguard.org/story.php?id=4454]
and [
http://www.nationalvanguard.org/story.php?id=2826 ]
MEHR News: I know that some high level figures featured as
speakers at the AIPAC event include: U.S. Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice, Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, Senate Majority
Leader Bill Frist, Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, and many others
of note. How do the American people feel about that?
KAS: The American people are divided on the issue of AIPAC
and the Israeli lobby, with a growing minority segment of well-informed
Americans openly opposing Zionist domination of the American
government.
This well-informed and educated segment consists of both
racially-aware rightists and human-rights-focused leftists. The
rightists or conservatives in this group came to an understanding of
the toxicity of Jewish power through their awareness of Jewish efforts
over many decades to increase immigration and dilute and overwhelm the
European-descended majority in the United States. The liberals or
leftists in this group have come to see Israel as one of the most
violent, oppressive, and aggressive nations on Earth, and they deeply
resent the Zionists' use of American money and military power to
further their genocidal objectives.
Among the poorly educated and those less well-informed (sadly, the
majority of the electorate) Israel is seen in the simplistic terms
presented in the mass media -- a victim of terrorism and a shining
light of democracy; or as she is painted by some fundamentalist
Christian churches -- an especially "holy" land and people foreseen in
supernatural "prophecies" and deserving of unswerving and unlimited
support.
MEHR News: Why is it that Israel's spying in the US doesn't
make relations between the two countries break down -- but other
espionage cases, involving other nations, make the respective
international relations tough?
KAS: As far as the great mass of the American public are
concerned, the Israeli spy scandals hardly exist. The Jewish-controlled
media may mention them, but very seldom. Britney Spears' latest love
affair is given far more coverage. For far too many Americans, they
only become outraged at crimes and injustices if 1) they are affected
personally, or 2) the media masters raise a 24-hour-per-day commotion
and tell them they
should be outraged. And the media owners and
managers in this country are disproportionately Jewish, and their
coverage is driven by their racial agenda.
As far as most politicians are concerned, with very few exceptions
they are deathly afraid of being given bad coverage by those same
Jewish-controlled media outlets. That explains their fawning pro-Israel
views and their near-total lack of interest in Israeli spies or Israeli
nukes or Israeli atrocities.
MEHR News: As you may be aware, Iran and sanctions against
her will be on the agenda in the AIPAC conference, and we know that the
above-mentioned figures who will participate in that are policy makers
in the U.S. What are the prospects for U.S. policy on Iran?
KAS: National Vanguard opposes the warlike moves of the
neocons and Zionists against Iran. We do not believe that they are
sincerely concerned about "weapons of mass destruction." We do not
believe that they have the best interests of America at heart. We
believe that their primary loyalty is to Israel, and that Americans are
seen by them mainly as serfs and cannon fodder to serve and die for
Jewish interests. We believe that the neocons are fanatics who want to
violently remake the Middle East, including Iran -- and we believe
that, through spilling a sea of innocent blood, they intend to create
sham-democratic regimes there, dominated by Israel and international
Jewish capital.
A war with Iran would be a terrible disaster for both our peoples,
several orders of magnitude worse than the obscene debacle in Iraq. It
could easily metastasize into a world war.
I do not want this war -- I oppose it with all my heart -- but I
must say that one possible positive outcome of such a war would be the
final defeat of Zionist ambitions. And even if such a war did not
result in clear-cut military defeat for the Zionists, and merely ended
in a bloody stalemate or a protracted guerrilla conflict, the price
would be so high for even the most obtuse Americans that the Jewish war
party in the United States would be forever discredited. And then new
possibilities would open up.
