Robert E Lee was the central figure Americans reconciled around after the Civil War finished.
Robert E Lee was so revered by Abraham Lincoln before the war that Lincoln offered the
command of the forces he was massing to attack and crush the States who
seceded solely because of his election.
Abraham Lincoln cared less that Robert E Lee had slaves when he offered
this command to him. Abraham Lincoln would have known at the time that
Thomans Jefferson and George Washington both had slaves in Virginia as well.
This alone proves that the Civil War was not over slavery or instead, he would have had Robert E Lee locked up in prison.
Virginia was not a State which originally seceded, but was a State so offended
that forces were massing in the federal government to attack seven
fellow States who did secede, that two days after Abraham Lincoln made his proposal to invade, Virginia also seceded.
As did Robert E Lee, who had more allegiance to his home State of
Virginia, than he had to the Federal government whom HIS STATE OF
VIRGINIA, almost singlehandedly, created.
- Virginia was the First State -- with the establishment of Jamestown,
- Virginia was the State of Thomas Jefferson,
- Virginia was the State of George Washington,
- Virginia was the State of Patrick Henry,
- Virginia was the State of James Madison,
- Virginia was the State of Robert E Lee.
So in a GREAT IRONY to the current degenerates falsely declaring
themselves Anti-Fascists, or Antifa, Robert E Lee's belief would
be that he was fighting against a FASCIST Abraham Lincoln, who wanted
to enslave all the States under the Federal Government.
But he lost, so after the war, Robert E Lee was a man who put his saber
away and helped reconcile the union of this country once again as
one truly united country.
Meanwhile, Abraham Lincoln would be assassinated by a JEWISH actor at Ford's Theater.
The Irony of it all!!!
A statue of Robert E Lee was constructed in Virginia and both North and South would agree to respect and honor the man.
The Virginia of today, who wants to tear down this statue -- who wants to tear
down this national reconciliation -- is a shell of its former glorious self.
With a Jewish mayor and a Communist governor shaming this great country of ours and
shaming Virginia's heritage of famous American leaders.
This is the context of the Charlottsvile march by Unite the Right,
against the mindless ISIS-level destruction of our cultural heritage by
Jewish Marxists.
Who divided this country
in the first place?
It is fairly well documented that blacks from Africa came to this country involutarily in Jewish slave ships.
But, the hate from this slave culture, which grew and grew and grew all through the early 1800's,
until war erupted in 1860, was all due to Jewish agitation.
Jews are actually quite proud of the fact that they ended slavery in
America (once Great Britain's navy finally stopped the Jewish slave
trade and all the money which could be made from that dried up.)
But to understand this, you must look to what was happening in Europe during this same time frame.
The world was set on fire in the late 1700's.
Americans knew Europe was a fouled mess and we managed to secede in the
American Revolution in 1776. Americans had tired of the Jewish
Rothschild family managing the British Empire to their own interests and using the American colonies as a collateral slave
colony.
By 1787, we had succeeded in refining our system of government by the establishment of the Constitution.
Americans were free.
Americans were truly free of Jewish control. But this could not stand for long.
Two years later, France fell to the scourge racking Europe.
In 1789, the Reign of Terror would begin what most Jews lovingly call "The French Revolution".
Eventually, even the Rothschilds could not stop the people of Great
Britain from fighting the last tyrant standing, Napoleon, and peace was
reestablished across Europe by 1815 AD.
At which time, many, many, many European Jewish radicals knew better than to stay in Europe and headed to the United States.
Where they began radicalizing our country as well.
The Achilles heel for America was slavery, so slavery is what they attacked.
If we had abortion in the day, abortion is what they would have attacked.
If we didn't have either one of those, they would have attacked us for invading and taking Indian lands.
Didn't matter what the cause, just needed to divide.
Men against women, gays against straights, old against young, wealthy
against poor, Islam against Christianity, and all those other
Jewish-created division and conquer games would come a hundred years
later.
At the time, slavery was an easy target.
The Civil War they wanted to redefine this country to their benefit had
to be over something, so the Jews picked the war to be over slavery.
But there still needed to be more Jews for the cause. And that came in 1848 AD.
Jewish radical Karl Marx released The Communist Manifesto in 1848, and
in that year, as night follows day, Europe had a communist uprising over the entire continent.
Again, Europe managed to put down this Jewish inspired revolt.
And once again, Jews needed to get out of Dodge fast.
So the second surge of Jewish radicals came in 1848, marking 12 years before
Americans were radicalized into a Civil War -- as night follows day.
So how did Jews accomplish this feat of creating the Civil War?
There were no national news in the day, since Jews had not yet created
a dominate radio, TV, and movie propaganda system to cover this country
from coast to coast, as electronics would allow them to do just a hundred years
into the future.
But there was a defacto national news service -- and Jews owned it.
Everyone knows all fashion came out of New York City and it was pretty much a Jewish owned enterprise.
These fashions needed cotton, so Jewish buyers would travel all over the South to procure cotton used in suits and dresses.
Everywhere these Jewish buyers went, Southerners wanted to know "the news" from up north.
Well, don't you know, these Jewish buyers told the Southerners that the
Northerners hated their guts.
The Jewish buyers told the Southerners
that Northerners thought they were knuckle-dragging, red-neck,
hillbillies who were so inbred they could not think straight.
And don't get me started about Northerners wanting to force the South to give up their slaves.
The Jewish buyers told the Southerners that the Northerners wanted to
force the Southerners to sell their cotton only to the North and to buy
their goods only from the North. (This part is actually true, if you
think of the "Northerners" wanting a trade monopoly being Jewish northerners from New
York City)
Loading up on cotton, the Jewish buyers headed north to New York City and to the textile towns of New England.
Once arriving in New York City, the people there wanted to hear "the latest news" about the South.
The Jewish buyers told the citizens of New York City and other New
England textile towns, that the people in the South were
knuckle-dragging, red-neck, hillbillies who were so inbred they could
not think straight.
The Jewish buyers told New Englanders that the Southern Plantation
owner whiped his male slaves every Sunday before Church. And raped his female slaves immediately after Church.
Once the dresses and suits were made, along with gathering up pots and pans, Jewish
peddlers would load up and drive into the West to sell their wares.
Jewish peddlers had also escaped the 1815 and 1848 European Communist
Revolts, such as Joseph Seligman, Meyer Guggenheim, Marcus Spiegal,
Levi Strauss,
People in the West wanted to know what was happening back East.
So the Jewish peddlers would oblige them, by telling the Westerners
that the South wanted to unfairly put their farms out of
business, by maintaining their plantation monopoly of unpaid slaves and
expanding those plantations into the West.
The Jewish peddlers told the Westerners how much the New England states
wanted to help them and to let them know that they felt their pain.

Guide to "The Jewish History of the World"
Yes, there is documented evidence of Jewish radicals actually violently agitating for war as well.
Bloody Kansas and the attack on Harper's Ferry were both largely Jewish endevours.
There were three Jewish radicals,fresh
from European agitation of 1812 and 1848, on the terror gang of
John Brown. Namely, Jacob Benjamin was a Jew from Bohemia
and August Bondi was a Jew from Vienna. Theodore "Thomas" Weiner
was a Jew from Poland who helped set up the Bleeding Kansas event known
as the Pottawatomie massacre.

The Mental Cause of the Civil War
Who is dividing this country today?
By now you should know the anwser is Joooooooooos!
The mayor of Charlottsville is Jewish and ordered the Charlottsville
police to stand down so violence would be assured so that the national Jewish MSM
mouth-piece could scream that the extreme right was fighting with its
own shadows from what you would learn from their biased and slanted
take. Not a liberal in view to provoke a fight.
How would Michael Signer know how to manipulate the media so well?
Easy, he is the son of Marjorie B. Signer, a communications director,
and Robert Signer, a newspaper assignment editor.
According to Singer, "My parents are both journalists; my father was a reporter and editor at
the Chicago Daily News and the Washington Post, and my mother was
Communications Director of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive
Choice and President of the Virginia chapter of the National
Organization for Women."
Jewish propaganda for abortion, Femi-NAZI and other Jewish causes runs in his veins.
To represent the good people of Virvinia, Michael Signer earned a Ph.D.
in political science from the University of California, Berkeley.
From
the marcher's side, it is rumored that the organizer of the event was
an Obama supporter. White supremacists do not accept any other race
that is considered to be outside of Europe, so a white supremacist
supporting a black President is a rare sight. Instead of a
neo-Nazi as advertised,
Jason Kessler just may be a liberal Agent Provocateur.
One of the biggest clues this was all agent provocateur driven was when
the first "Nazi" was Doxed,
the so-called "Nazi" turned out to be
a resident of the most liberal place on Earth, Berkeley California.
Wonder if Michael Signer met "NAZI" Cole White while he was in Berkely to get a good Virginian education (sarc)?
Tellingly, there was a quick demand from the MSM to stop Doxing any other "Nazi".
Michael Signer wrote
Demagogue: The Fight to Save Democracy from Its Worst Enemies in 2009, so he is just the man who believes he has the knowledge to put down a Trump demogogue you think?
Or in my theory, Michael Singer is working to CREATE A DEMAGOGUE!!!!
And then there happens to be at the riot, a the Deep-State Obama State
Department official to document the "atrocity" committed that
day.
He freely admits as much with his cover story stating that he could not
miss being in harm's way, such the hero he is. (We have added all bold
in Brennan's article)
Hours after an interview I did with Alex Witt of MSNBC,
neo-Nazi commentators started posting about me on 4chan, Reddit and
YouTube.
These crack researchers bragged that they had discovered I
worked for the State Department
(it’s in my Twitter bio),
that I have a connection to George Soros
(he very publicly donated to the campaign of my former boss, Tom Perriello),
and that I spent time in Africa working [TCS added -- for the State Department, but working on behalf of the UN] in conflict areas
(information available in major news outlets).
Desperate to lay blame on anyone besides the alt-right, they seized on
these facts to suggest a counter-narrative to the attack, claiming there
was no way that someone with my background just happened to be right
there to take the video.
Even ignoring the fact that someone with my
background—raised in Virginia, UVA graduate, lives in Charlottesville,
worked to resolve ethnic conflicts overseas, politically progressive
—is exactly the kind of person you’d expect to find at a protest against Nazis, their theories were absurd and illogical.
--Brennan Gilmore "How I became Fake News" August 21, 2017
What Brennan Gilmore does not admit is that the very publications showing his background was also
busy trying to hide his State Department background.
On August 24, 2017, Brennan came on NPR to whine about how much he
feared the death threats to him and his family -- and then doubled down
how he would double up on doing twice as much of what he was already
doing that made him fear for his safety.
In other words, Brennan Gilmore was doing as the old Polish saying about Jews, "A Jew will cry out in pain as he is hiting you."
On the left side, agitating for war, are Jews Bernie Sanders, Debbie
Wasserman-Schultz, Adam Schiff, Chuck Schumer, and all the Jews of MSM
and Holleywood.
The Democrats, who actually were the Confederacy, now want to erase all
memory of slavery, EXCEPT when they condemn Republicans for slavery
every single friggin day!!
On the right side, agitating for war, are Jewish-owned Drudge Report,
Jewish-owned Breitbart, Jewish-owned Fox News and Jewish-owned Donald Trump, father and
grandfather of Jews.
Donald Trump??? How can you say that????
The Real Problem
at The Unite the Right protest
The Creation of a Demagogue
- Not a problem that people want to exercise their free
speech rights to keep the Robert E Lee statue as a historical
rememberance of our history, as the Unite the Right (UTR) group were
doing.
- Not a problem that UTR legally tried to obey the law by obtaining the necessary city permits to allow their free speech
- Not a problem with UTR, that the city of Charlottsville refused to grant their legal request.
- Not a problem that a federal court had to force the city to grant the free speech march.
- Not a problem with UTR that they
peacefully marched and were beaten, tear gassed, had urine thrown on them, and even flame thrower
abused by leftist terrorists who never obtained a legal march permit to counter protest.
- Not a problem with UTR that the Democrat city manager was hostile to their free speech and falsely characterized them
- Not a problem with UTR that the Democrat city mayor was so
hostile to their free speech rights, that he did not insure his police
department kept the domestic peace.
- Not
a problem with UTR that the Democrat governor of Virginia was hostile
to their free speech and falsely characterized them.
- Not a problem with UTR that the Democrat governor of
Virginia will never see fit to investigate the police department
of Charlottsville placing the UTR in harm's way and not protecting
their safety.
- Not a problem with UTR that the Jewish controlled MSM
totally switched the ones doing the violence and accused Unite the
Right as the sole perpetrators of this violence
The REAL PROBLEM, is that Black Lives Matter and Antifa are well known national
terrorist groups. BLM killed 5 police officers in Dallas and more elasewhere. Antifa tried
to wipe out the Senate Republican charity baseball team. Antifa and BLM have
been violently using the heckler's veto against the First Amendment freedoms of conservative speakers at
university campuses for some time now and have been getting away with it.
- Please do not tell me that the Department of Homeland Security did not
have every movement of these vile movements under surveillance using all the Big Brother
Internet and wireless bugging the DHS has been notoriously building "for our
security".
- Please do not tell me they did not already know every
move and every step these radical anarchists were planning on taking
that day.
- Please do not tell me that the DHS did not have the
entire park rigged with cameras and microphones on the day of the march
to obtain evidence for arrests and prosecutions, much as JFK would have
supported Freedom Riders in the South during the 1960's.
This is the REAL PROBLEM.
This is the sole responsibility I place directly at Donald Trump's feet.
If he is not securing the peace, then he does not want peace either. Any more than the Democrats want peace.
Donald Trump will not even acknowledge that there is a problem in the left now.
“We
condemn in the strongest possible terms this display of hatred, bigotry
and violence,” Trump said in an impromptu statement on Monday after
returning to the White House from his golf club in New Jersey.
“Racism
is evil, and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and
thugs, including the KKK, Neo-Nazis, white supremacists and other hate
groups that are repugnant to what we hold dear as Americans,” he added.
Without acknowledging there is a problem in the first place, then the DHS will never stop the violent abuse on the left.
Fact is, Donald Trump has no interest in stopping any of this.
If this drags into a Civil War, Trump can declare himself dictator to
"fix the problem" and we will all happily go along with it all.
Only years later will we wonder what happened to our freedom, our liberty, and our Constitution.
Once again, the Jews will have won in their age-old game of division and conquest.
And Trump will declare his Jewish son-in-law to be heir to his throne.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA – Conflicts with mainstream media and
politicians’, including Democratic Governor Terry
McAuliffe’s, characterization of events surrounding the white
nationalist Unite the Right rally emerged quickly over the weekend.
“I have a message to all the white supremist [sic] and the
Nazis who came into Charlottesville today … You came here today to hurt
people and you did hurt people,” McAuliffe told reporters at a press
conference Saturday night.
The governor repeatedly emphasized the violence of “nazis” but made no reference to violence by any left-wing group, despite being asked repeatedly
about what role such groups may have played in Saturday’s melee. The
implication was clear that the violence was an unavoidable result of
far-right white identity political groups being allowed to hold a rally.
But a report on police conduct
during and after the rally by ProPublica, a left-leaning investigative
journalism non-profit, as well as eyewitness accounts by those who
participated in the rally itself, have called the simplicity of this
characterization into question. Both suggest mismanagement of police
resources by political leadership may have exacerbated, rather than
controlled, the violence surrounding the rally and the counter-protests,
which included mainstream liberals and local faith-based “anti-racism”
groups as well as radical leftist “Black Lives Matter” (BLM) and
“Anti-Fascist Action” (Antifa) outfits.
Saturday’s rally, ostensibly a demonstration against the potential
removal of Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s longstanding stature from
the Charlottesville, Virginia, park that bore his name until renamed
“Emancipation Park,” this year by the city council, turned into the
biggest news event in the country Friday as torch-bearing members of
disparate, explicitly white nationalist groups, including several
“Alt-Right” organizations and a contingent of self-identified neo-Nazis,
descended on the home of the University of Virginia. By Saturday
afternoon, three people were dead, with several dozen serious injuries.
None of the deaths occurred at the Emancipation Park rally. One, that
of 32-year old Virginia-native Heather Heyer, is being treated as an
intentional homicide and resulted from one man, James Fields Jr.,
crashing into a counter protest march that took place in downtown
Charlottesville after the Unite the Right rally had been dispersed by
police. Fields, a 20-year old from Ohio, has been arrested and charged
with murder. He is reported to have been in town for the rally and
sources suggest he may have ties to one of the white nationalist groups
in attendance, although the leadership of that group has claimed he was
entirely unconnected to them. A federal investigation into the incident
was also announced by Attorney General Jeff Sessions Saturday.
The other two deaths were the result of a Virginia State Police
helicopter suffering an accidental crash into a wooded area on the
outskirts of Charlottesville. Lieutenant Jay Cullen and Trooper Berke
Bates were killed in the crash.
The subsequent declaration of a local state of emergency turned the
streets of central Charlottesville into a nearly deserted ghost town
with the college town’s bars and restaurants, typically bustling with
partygoers and vacationers on a summer weekend, mostly shut.
According to ProPublica reporter A.C. Thompson and his colleagues,
“authorities took a largely laissez faire approach, allowing white
supremacists and counter-protesters to physically battle.”
The report takes a similar stance to McAuliffe as to the moral
culpability for the fracas around Emancipation Park. As ProPublica
reports it:
At about 10 a.m. today, at one of countless such
confrontations, an angry mob of white supremacists formed a battle line
across from a group of counter-protesters, many of them older and
gray-haired, who had gathered near a church parking lot. On command from
their leader, the young men charged and pummeled their ideological foes
with abandon. One woman was hurled to the pavement, and the blood from
her bruised head was instantly visible.
ProPublica is a George Soros-funded
investigative journalism non-profit. A.C. Thompson is, according to his
bio, a reporter “covering the rise in hate crimes in America.”
The same report quotes Charlottesville Vice Mayor Wes Bellamy
defending the police tactics, saying, “I’m not in the business of
throwing our police department under the bus, because they’re doing the
best job they can. I don’t think the police officers were just twiddling
their thumbs.”
McAuliffe, in what the New York Times reports
was an impromptu interview before addressing two church congregations
Sunday, “strongly defended the police response to the violent
demonstrations … saying that law enforcement authorities had done ‘great
work’ in ‘a very delicate situation.'”
Miriam Krinsky, a former federal prosecutor who, according to
ProPublica, has worked on police reform efforts in Los Angeles, told the
non-profit that, while it was too early to assess Charlottesville’s law
enforcement response, in general, “a strategy of disengagement works to embolden unruly crowds.”
“If things start to escalate and there’s no response, it
can very quickly get out of control,” she said. “Individuals can and
will get hurt.”
But an overly forceful response, she said, can also make
the situation worse. Krinsky said attempts to seize weapons might have
led to more clashes between police and protesters. “Trying to take
things away from people is unlikely to be a calming influence,” she told
ProPublica.
A good strategy, she said, is to make clashes less likely
by separating the two sides physically, with officers forming a barrier
between them. “Create a human barrier so the flash points are reduced
as quickly as possible,” she said.
While they undoubtedly dispute ProPublica’s characterization of
who was responsible for most of the violence at the official rally,
multiple Unite the Right participants who agreed to be interviewed by
Breitbart News were themselves largely in agreement about the failings
of the policing strategy.
One man, who was vacationing in the United States from Finland,
arrived with one of the last waves to get into Emancipation Park before
the event was shut down. From his perspective, “these two groups of
very polarly opposed political and social and moral views were forced
into conflict” by policing tactics. He recounted his experience to
Breitbart News:
I was expecting to enter a peaceful protest to protect
this monument and part of United States history from utter and total
rewriting. I entered with people from the United States who were aware
there were going to be counter-protesters. They promised to keep me
safe, which they did. But what happened was, the police force, which
should have kept the protesting parties separate, in fact funneled the
right-wing protesters, the people defending the monument, right into
Antifa, [making them run] a gauntlet of Antifa to the monument … Then – I
don’t know the details of it – on dubious legal grounds, [the police]
declared the gathering of right-wing protesters unlawful. We were forced
to leave the venue and run another gauntlet.
Similar accounts were given by two self-described
Alt-Right activists in their mid-20s who came from the Midwest for the
rally. Unlike the Finnish man above, the pair were with one of the first
waves to get to Emancipation Park. They asked to be identified by the
pseudonyms “George” and “Sean.”
“We’re seeing [projectiles] being thrown back and forth. The
police seemed almost to misdirect people, sending them to the wrong side
of the park so they would have to go through the crowd [of leftists],”
George told Breitbart News, describing the progression into chaos.
The pair claimed that their pleas to police that Unite the
Right participants, especially the featured speakers, were gravely
endangered by running the “gauntlet” fell on deaf ears. “What
was weird was that the police started forming a shield wall moving on
to us, forcing us out onto this narrow staircase where we were right in
front of Antifa,” George said of the scene as the rally was being
dispersed.
Another Midwestern rally-goer, “Andrew,” in his early thirties,
also came to the park with one of the early waves. His primary goal, he
claims, was to stay out of the fray and capture video of the
happenings. He spoke to Breitbart News about his own impressions of the
policing:
We were told by police to walk around the perimeter, past
one of the two parks where [the counter-protesters] had a permit to
rally. Antifa came out and they started following us down a dead end
where the police would not let us through to go to Lee Park, so we had
to go back through the lines of [counter-protesters] … at that point a
giant melee broke out. It’s hard to say who started it or how it
started. It seemed to be some of the Black Lives Matter activists got in
our faces and started assaulting us and the natural response was
self-defense … What I didn’t expect was the inability or the refusal of
the police department to respond to threats.
Andrew claimed the police made no attempt to apprehend the
assailant and then related having projectiles including glass bottles
thrown at his group by Antifa activists as they tried to make their way
out of the what he insistently called “Lee Park.”
When asked whether orders were given on Saturday for police to stand
down, Charlottesville Director of Communications Miriam Dickler told
Breitbart News in an email that “no stand down orders were given on Saturday.”
When asked whether the tactic of physically separating the two opposing protests groups was employed, Dickler responded, “There
were physical barricades to allow for separation and safety of those
with opposing views, but ultimately the decision of where to collect is
up to individuals.”
Jason Kessler, the organizer of the Unite the Right event,
responded to Saturday’s violence, telling NBC 29 in Charlottesville in a
statement that the blame was “primarily the result of the
Charlottesville government officials and the law enforcement officers
which failed to maintain law and order by protecting the First Amendment
rights of the participants of the ‘Unite the Right’ rally.”
Kessler continued:
We networked with law enforcement officials and safety
arrangements were made months ago, but despite this, the Charlottesville
Police Department not only failed to act per the plan but exacerbated
the violence: they did not separate the demonstrators and
counter-demonstrators, they were poorly underequipped for the situation,
they stood idly by when violent counter-protesters attacked the
participants of the rally and then they forced our demonstrators out of
Lee Park and into a melee with Antifa
The statement continues, saying that “despite the safety plan that
was in place, the Charlottesville government backed out of it at the
last minute.”
Kessler added, “Charlottesville violated the federal court’s order by
shutting down the rally at Lee Park after left-wing agitators began
throwing bricks at us. Our right to free speech was violated when the
police officers acquiesced to the unconstitutional ‘heckler’s veto’
raised by our detractors.”
Due to the police not maintaining order, many people were hurt. The media is not showing who instigated the violence.
The same condemnation of violence was echoed by the rally-goers who
spoke with Breitbart News in the aftermath of the day’s events. In
particular, all the interviewed activists expressed their horror over
what had happened in the car attack on the counter-protest.
“I have no idea where this happened, who did it, and for what reason.
Whoever did behave in that way should be classified as a domestic
terrorist,” the Finnish attendee said hours before Fields’s name had
been released.
“The moment the police told us [the assembly was unlawful], as
law-abiding citizens or visitors to the United States, we immediately
left,” he added. “We were there not to have a fight with the police, not
to break the law, and we left … We got back in our cars and drove away.
We did precisely what the police told us to do, which was disperse.”
In separate interviews, all four recounted that they and
everyone else they had seen at the rally was nowhere near the Water
Street site of the crash when it occurred, having dispersed as ordered.
“At least the Alt-Right, we were told to leave the city limits. As soon
as we were kicked out … by the time we had heard of the car crash, we
were all already miles away,” Sean said.
All four also took issue with the idea they or anyone
associated with them had been the prime movers in the violence that
broke out around the Lee statue. Asked when the Antifa attacks began
George told Breitbart News, “Immediately. The very first convoy was already being hit by Antifa. As we got into the entrance, you would have people pushing you.”
“We initiated, from what I saw, literally none of the violence.
I would say, of the violence initated 98 percent Antifa, two percent
ours, and that’s just out of margin of error,” George said.
“Reasonable and proportionate, at the very least,” Sean said of the Alt-Rightists’ responses to Antifa attacks.
The Finn, who was further away from the “front lines,” added his account:
Violence was at a level it should not be in a civilized
society. People were using flag-poles, metal poles, mace, pepper spray,
and, in fact, I did see, at a very close distance, someone using an
aerosol can and a lighter as a flamethrower.
People attacked the people protecting me with hammers and pepper
spray and batons. We got to the mound where the monument sits. I saw
pretty normal people. In one instance it was probably a grandfather and
his grandson who had probably come there to protect United States
history and they were in a situation that was definitely not something
that they deserved or were in any way prepared for. I think the behavior
of Antifa and other leftist groups in this particular situation was
dangerous, malicious, totally out-of-proportion, and directed at people
who had no intention of being violent.
The media widely reported the rally as a “Ku Klux Klan” or “neo-Nazi” march. None
of the Alt-Right activists or other attendees with whom Breitbart News
spoke denied that self-identified “KKK members” and “Nazis” including a
contingent of the decades-old National Socialist Movement (NSM) were
present at the rally. All, however, downplayed their significance and
claimed these groups mostly kept to themselves on one side of
Emancipation Park. “I was on the side with mostly Alt-Right. The other
end was the NSM,” George said.
Sean said it was difficult, while on the ground, to estimate
the relative numbers of people from different right-wing groups, but
that the Alt-Right contingent outnumbered the more colorful groups that
have dominated media attention by “at least two to one.”
Like the other activists who spoke to Breitbart News, George
and Sean categorically rejected “KKK” “neo-nazi” and “white supremacist”
labels. “It makes for a good chant, but no, absolutely not,” Sean said,
referencing the left-wing’s now ubiquitous “No Nazis, No KKK, No
Fascist U-S-A!” rally chant.
“In terms of the KKK, that’s a common lie the media like to
tell. This was not a KKK march,” Andrew said. “This is a Unite the Right
Rally. They are on the right, so they were here, but we don’t
necessarily support what they do and they were clearly not the majority
of people who were there.”
None of them, however, deny that they came to protest the
removal of Robert E. Lee’s statue largely because they see it as part of
a wider attack on white people. “We came to defend white people,”
George said. “I am a northerner through and through, but this is
absolutely an attack on the people of the South and its part of a much
wider system of anti-white politics.”
As Sean put it:
We’re seeing whites largely blamed for enormous problems. Just
about every problem we’re seeing is, we’re told, caused by white
privilege or colonialism, or whatever terms they come up with to use
white people as a scapegoat for everyone elses’ problems. And on top of
that, sometime in the 2040s, we’re projected to be a minority in this
country. History tells us exactly what happens to scapegoated minorities
in the countries where they’re unpopular.
In Andrew’s words:
The message is global and also local … Whites in Europe, in
North American, and in Australia are having multiculturalism forced on
them. Dangerous multiculturalism, not the positive kind where you get
the best of the best, but the worst of the worst … We get Islamic
radicals being brought into our countries. I felt this was a turning
point in world events and that I needed to be here at the very least.
I’m not necessarily 100 percent Alt Right. I want to be here to observe

replied.

Breitbart News about their own experiences on Saturday.
