They've always been here. At least in North America
the Odinist movement and Asatru is crawling with them. The first organizer of
Northern Traditions in N.A., Helen Christensen, is a fascist. She's now retired
and living on Vancouver Island, an elderly woman not active in the movement
anymore. The book "Gods of the Blood : the Pagan Revival and White Separatism"
by Mattias Gardell (Durham NC: Duke U Press,2003) is a very good history of the
movement. Gardell teaches at Stockholm University in Sweden.
Did anyone else notice the similarities between
Brievik's ideology and the ideas of the Legion of the Archangel Michael / Iron
Guard, the Roumanian fascist group that Mircea Eliade was involved with in the
1930s and sympathetic to throughout his life? Particularly the idea of martyrdom
through committing a detestable act - like Judas condemning oneself to Hell for
the sake of the "greater goal of liberation of Christendom"?
