I don't really remember how much I've actually perused the site, but I do notice that I had put its RSS feed in the "Far Right" folder, which includes BNP activists, Monarchists, Jesuit sniffers, and Zionists together with Antisemites.

However, after checking the author's blog, (http://gatesofvienna.blogspot.com) I have come to the conclusion that he hold's certain questionable eugenic beliefs, not quite as apparent in this article. While I agree with him that multiculturalism is a farce and share his revulsion of Marxism and concerns about the mass influx of Islamic immigrants, I think he puts to much emphasis on race and genetics as factors in shaping civilizations. The author seems to have adopted a Darwinist paradigm in which the various races of man are presented as competing species in a struggle for survival, with the European and north Asian races being presented as inherently intellectually superior to all others. The danger here is that the author of this article is no doubt one of many people waking up to the logical incompatibility of such things as liberty, equality of all men, etc with the Darwinian world view; a realization that was all too obvious to Hitler several decades ago. Admittedly this guy is no Nazi in any traditional sense, he seems basically non-violent and, somewhat ironically he supports Israel. However race based politics, though the reverse of Communism and Multicultural nonsense is also incompatible with Christianity, which was the real force that built the West. It is not merely a useful myth that facilitated the growth of an stability of Medieval European culture, it is Truth itself. All human beings, of all races, ethnicitys, economic and class backgrounds and religions, whether they believe it or not, are made in the image of the Eternal God. This is the principle that propelled the West forward. Even after many in the West stopped believing it, the idea had such momentum as to maintain its influence on our civilization. Ironically the author seems aware of this and yet still attributes our cultural achievements to racial factors. It is possible that he believes the messianic expectations of the Hebraic religion to be born out of “tribalistic loyalty” of the ancient Israelites. However this is an insufficient explanation for the sheer tenacity of such an idea. The very fact that an idea that was allegedly premised on the uniqueness of one nation, ended up being spread to every nation on earth is itself nothing short of a miracle. The conclusions the author comes to in his other article is wrong. Civilization does not need a new synthesis, it needs Christianity. It does not need to be “re-Ayranized”, it needs to Re-Christainized. It does not need the paradigm of Thomas Huxley but the paradigm of Thomas Aquinas. It does not need a European savior for European people but a Jewish savior for all people (and just in case it isn't obvious I'm not talking about Karl Marx..)
