- 1959-1960.
In the late 1959 and early 1960, the eruption of anti-Jewish vandalism is known as the swastika wave or epidemic. It began in Cologne. A Jan 1960 report elaborated on United Arab Republic with help from Communists in East Germany were behind swastikas in Cologne. Mufti's disciple who converged to Islam, Von Leers, is a chief instigator. It is believed also that the UAR helps out in Nazi hate activity in the US.[1][2][3]
The Ex-mufti brought Von Leers to Egypt, German Authorities believed.[4] Goebbels' Johannes “Omar Amin” von Leers (d. 1965), was a Nazi disciple of Hajj Amin el-Husseini.[5][6]

- Sirhan Sirhan (b. March 19, 1944) (Arab "Palestinian" assassin of RFK) Hitler admiration (1950s-1970):
The 1968 Sunday Sun report stated that Sirhan “often said he admired Hitler.” It quoted his father as recalling Sirhan saying:
“Hitler was a big man, a great man[sic], and he had good ideas. In the end he was wrong because he did terrible harm to his country.”[10]
The U.S. congressional memorial volume for Robert F. Kennedy later referenced these reported statements in the context of warnings about extremist ideology and the spread of hate propaganda.[11] Per later witness accounts in the U. S.: Sirhan was impressed with Hitler’s 'Mein Kampf' and the Nazi leader’s ‘hypnotic control over people’..[12] Reportedly, his mother Mary Sirhan instilled hatred in him.[12]
A 1970 United Press International report published in the Ludington Daily News stated that while in custody Sirhan wrote during a hunger strike: “Hitler had more mercy than you do.”[13]
- 1963-5+.
An alarming 1964 reporting on 'Neo-Nazi activities of Arab countries... an extensive anti-democratic and anti-Jewish Campaign is "being waged with greatly increased intensity" by Arab Propagandists... extremists and neo-Nazi groups, often operating jointly.' Arab hate propaganda intensified especially since Arab League (Hussein Triki) 'Nacion Arabe' launch in 1963. Arabs distributed a propaganda piece entitled "The Problem of Palestine Refugees," which is, in reality, a collation of diatribes against Zionism, Jews and Judaism. The pamphlet denies that six million Jews were destroyed by the Nazis.[14]
- In April 1964, it was charged: in many instances Arab agents and agencies are linked with neo-Nazi and Fascist groups equally committed to virulent anti-Semitism.[15]
- Mar 5, 1965.
The Palestinian delegation in New York, (Issa Nakhleh and others) put out a statement blaming the Jews, who it claims started [sic. Supposedly] Hitler's war; it doubts the Holocaust calling it "alleged," then the message compared this number to 45 million non-Jews whose lives were cut short, blurring between peoples who fought and defenseless Jews who were slaughtered.[16][17]
- 1960s-1970s.
Nazi link with “Palestinian” terrorists.
François Genoud [Genaud] was one of the founders of the Nazi party in Switzerland during the Hitler era; ally of Ibrahim Hafid - commander of the Arab Legion who fought in the service of Hitler. Motivated by Jew-hatred he became a passionate supporter of Arab "liberation" causes.[18]
He travelled to Berlin frequently during the war "to see his friend the grand mufti," and visited him afterward many times in Beirut, who'd consider him a "confidant until his death in 1974,"[19] and an Arab of Tunisian descent, Ibrahim Hafid, who was the commander of the Arab Legion fighting in the service of the Germans.[18][20]
After the war, his close contact was Ibrahim Hafid's man, Abdul Yousufi. Genaud was very active in Die Spinne (German for "The Spider")[18] helping Nazi war criminals escape justice. The "Arab Commercial Bank" - mostly of a dubious and illegal nature - was established by: François Genoud in partnership with Hans Reichenberg - former S.S. Officers - and with various factors in the Arab world. Genoud began to finance in Switzerland the activities of the "Friends of the Palestinians Organization" founded in Lausanne by neo-Nazi circles who saw helping the Palestinians as a way of expressing their anti-Jewish feelings.[18] In the 1960s he began supplying arms for various "Palestinian" causes. His co founded Lausanne-based New European Order organisation, met in Barcelona in April 1969, there "Palestinian" groups received financial support and Genoud placed them in contact with former Nazis who would assist their military training, as well as pledged support designated for the PLO.
Genoud was a close associate of George Habash and Jacques Vergès. In September 1969 he contributed finances for the legal expenses of three Palestinians from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) following their attack on an El Al flight in Zurich, present at trial.[21][18] Including among the prisoners to be exchanged for the Achille Lauro hostages was one of West Germany's top neo Nazis.[21]
George Habbash was also close with former Belgian Nazi collaborator Jean Thiriart.[22] He gave money to Thiriart's publication La Nation Européenne, which in return supported Habbash in this magazine. Pro-Arab and anti-Jewish themes were explicit in La Nation Européenne, which included ads for The International Jew, the infamous anti-Semitic screed by Henry Ford. La Nation Européenne also eulogized Roger Courdroy, a Belgian Waffen SS veteran who was killed fighting for the Palestinians in June 1968. Courdroy was a close collaborator with Thiriart.
German Wehrmacht officer in World War II, Otto Ernst Remer was in contact with Yasser Arafat, "I know Mr. Arafat quite well, natürlich," he asserted. "I saw him many times. He invited me to eat at his headquarters. I knew all his people. They wanted many things from us." For Remer, anyone who was an enemy of Israel was his friend, particularly when a profit could be turned. He claimed to have brokered several business deals between West German companies and the PLO.[23]

Albrecht and twelve other neo-Nazi militants had fought alongside the Palestinians against Jordan's King Hussein during the battle of Black September, 1970.[23][26][27]
Albrecht, who boasted of direct access to PLO Chairman Yasir Arafat, is believed to have used PLO facilities in Lebanon to train West German neo-Nazis.[28] An alarming report was given over already in March 1970: Nazis and neo-Nazis aid "Front for the Liberation of Palestine" operations.[29]
-Per report in April 1969:[30] Fatah terrorists conducted training camps in the Venezuelan mountains, where young people are training in urban guerrilla warfare. The terrorists are in contact with former Nazis living in Venezuela.
-In 1977 Fatah made a deal with the French Work (L'Oeuvre Francaise), a neo-Nazi group, to train its members in terrorist operations on behalf of Fatah.[31][32]
-It has been confirmed that an unspecified number of German neo-Nazis received PLO military training in an Al Fatah camp near Beirut and that this information had been available to West German authorities since the start of 1980.[33]

But no one bought his act.

From the Reagan Library:[82]
Links Between the Neo-Nazis and the PLO
Publications both in Israel and abroad have established that ties have existed between the PLO and various neo-Nazi groups since the 1960s when ex-SS officers found asylum in Arab countries provided advice and guidance to the budding PLO.
In April 1969, a world conference of neo-Nazi Organizations, on which about 100 delegates from Europe and Latin America participated was held in Barcelona, at which an Algerian delegate proposed a resolution condemning Zionist "imperialism" and succeeded in obtaining a promise from the neo-Nazi organizations of assistance in both manpower and arms for the PLO. The first manifestation of this assistance was the recruitment of an ex-SS officer to command a PFLP training camp at Basra in southern Iraq. In September 1969 Jean Tireault, secretary of the neo-Nazi movement in Brussels, was arrested on suspicion of maintaining contacts with PLO members who had carried out a terrorist attack in Belgium.
In 1970 a complex network of financial cooperation between neo-Nazi organizations and the PLO was uncovered, following the appearance of François Genoud, a Swiss banker who was the director of the Arab Bank in Geneva, as an observer of a PLO terrorist who had attacked an El Al plane at Zurich in February 1969. Genoud...of being connected with the 'Spider' currency smuggling network, which was regarded as responsible for the transfer to Swiss Bank vaults of the booty of Nazi thefts and robberies.
On 1973 a number of European newspapers revealed that two well-known neo-Nazis, the Belgian Karl van de Put and the German Johan Schuller, had acted as recruiting agents for Fatah.
Shortly before the October 1973 Yom Kippur war, the German neo-Nazi newspaper 'Nationalist and Soldiers' Chronicle' offered its readers a trip to the Middle East to learn about the Palestinian struggle. The notice stated that money was no problem, and that what was important was courage and friendship. At the same time Austrian police arrested the Austian neo-Nazi leader Herald Engelke, after his party had given asylum and assistance to PLO members who had been smuggled into Austria using forged Israeli passports in order carry out acts of terror there.
In January 1978 the general prosecutor of the West German Supreme Court at Karlsruhe opened an investigation into links between the neo-Nazi organizations and the PLO, following the arrest of 4 Germans who were members of the Adolf Hitler Free Korps - which had been engaged in arms-running from Arab countries on behalf of the PLO.
For the past few years, the various PLO factions have been showing their appreciation for the help which they have received from the neo-Nazis in Europe by providing them with financial assistance and training at PLO camps. For example, the West German student Gundolf Keller, a member of the neo-Nazi Military Sports Club who was killed in September 1980 when an explosive charge went off at the Munich Beer Festival, had undergone military training at a PLO camp in southern Lebanon. Karl Heinz Hoffman who heads this group, has also spent some in Beirut for "Business purposes." The exact nature of his business was later revealed in conversations which were monitored by German security forces in which he told his Palestinian friends that he was acting in the way Adolf Hitler would have acted had he still been alive.
Further details of neo-Nazi-PLO cooperation was revealed on 30 January 1981, during the interrogation of Adv. Manfred Roeder, one of the leaders of the West German neo-Nazi movement.

'U.A R. Agents and East Germany play an important role in the incidents.'
By the author of 'The Morning' in the USA New York. 18. - Agents of UAR, East Germany, play an important role in recent antisemitic incidents - writes the World Telegram today.
Shortly after the swastikas appeared in Cologne, the Communists in East Germany felt that this was an opportunity to defame West Germany and damage its world-famous reputation. The UAR propaganda ministry immediately went into action, and many Nazi groups funded by it helped reduce anti-Semitism.
Groups of Arab students from German universities staged antisemitic demonstrations and participated in swastika paintings. Goebbels' assistant, Dr. Johannes van Leers, who in recent years has served as Nasser's adviser on propaganda. He directed the system of hatred of Jews now spreading around the world.
Von Leers took on the Muslim religion and adopted an Arab name. He even surrounded himself with Nazi experts on hostile propaganda.
The newspaper also announces that researchers believe that the Arab propagandists are helping fund the antisemitic propaganda campaign in the US. In the meantime, the U.S. Subcommittee on Prevention of Discrimination against Minorities is expected to hold a hearing and issue a condemnation of anti-Semitism this weekend.

Nazism in the Service of Nasserism By Eliezer Ben-Moshe ...apart of all of these, serve thousands of other Nazis in the UAR (United Arab Republic). That journalist told me that when it broke out last year, the Swastika epidemic in the world, there was great joy in the residence of the Nazis in Cairo, and they could be seen in public places in the city, rejoicing and raising a glass in honor of their "successes," of which they were no small part in their initiation. On the other hand, when it became known that Eichmann had been abducted and brought to trial in Israel, these moves seemed like gloomy shadows, and some of them turned to the UAR authorities and asked for a personal guard, for fear that "the long hand of the Israelis" would reach them.
But not only in Cairo, the Nazis operate in the service of Nasserism. Even in their other centers, and in the scope in South America, they cooperate with the Embassy of the UAR in various fields, and in particular for Israel and Jews.

Haj Amin el Husseini, the former Mufti of Jersalem, is believed in government circles here to have arranged for the hiring by the Egyptian government of the notorious anti-Semitic propagandist, Dr. Johannes von Leers. Von Leers was revealed this week to be working for Cairo’s Ministry of National Guidance, President Gamal Abdel Nasser’s propaganda department.
The ex-Mufti had sent a greeting to Von Leers when the latter was editing “Der Weg,” a German-language monthly dedicated to perpetuation of the Nazi brand of anti-Semitism which Von Leers issued in Buenos Aires during the Peron regime. In his message to Von Leers, the ex-Mufti thanked the unreconstructed Nazi “for venturing to take up the battle against the power of darkness that has become incarnate in world Jewry.”
When Perón was overthrown in Argentina, Von Leers wrote to friends here that he had been “invited by Egyptian authorities to deliver some lectures” in Cairo.

One of the mufti's principle colleagues in Berlin was Johann von Leers, who was Goebbels's adjutant at the Ministry for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. Von Leers made his way to Egypt after the war and was even able to resume his career. He worked as a propagandist for Nasser, who himself, as an old Greenshirt, went on clinging to his pro-Nazi enthusiasms well into the 1960s.

Measures against defamatory Arabs
The government's decision to take action against Arab citizens who defame the state and the Jewish people - it's about time. The Israeli democracy that gives freedom of expression to all citizens of the country is exploited by certain Arab circles for public speaking that would not be tolerated in any advanced country. At a press conference held yesterday, the Adviser on Arab Affairs in the Prime Minister's Office raised disgraceful examples of the form of anti-Jewish expression on the part of Arab citizens of the country.
Had Nazi Germans expressed themselves in this way in Germany or any other advanced country they would have been severely punished. In West Germany and other European countries, in recent years, people who have expressed themselves in a much less extreme anti-Jewish way have been severely punished than the things that Arab citizens dare publicly in the State of Israel.
After all, one must not continue to suffer a situation ... while in Israel itself, Arab citizens stand up and publicly express their sorrow that the Nazis did not turn all the Jews into soap [and no one says a word]. The phenomena of being caught up in Nazi moods by certain circles, though limited, of Arab citizens, needs to be dealt with effectively and with all the severity of the law.
The same is true of all those appearances of undermining the security of the state and the peace of its citizens that some members of the Arab minority give their hand to. The Arab residents of State of Israel enjoy a broad degree of freedom. They are citizens with equal rights if not equal obligations. In fact, the situation of Israeli Arabs is better, in all respects, than that of their brethren living in Arab countries ... אמצעים נגד ערבים משמיצים החלטתה של הממשלה לנקוט אמצעים נגד אזרחים ערבים המשמיצים את המדינה ואת העם היהודי היא דבר בעתו. הדימוקראטיה הישראלית המעניקה חופש ביטוי לכל אזרחי המדינה מנוצלת על ידי חוגים ערבים מסויימים להתבטאות פומבית שלא היתה נסבלת בשום מדינה מתקדמת. במסיבת עתונאים שהתקיימה שלשום העלה היועץ לענינים ערבים במשרד ראש הממשלה דוגמאות מחפירות של צורת התבטאות אנטי־יהודית מצד ערבים אזרחי המדינה. אילו התבטאו בצורה זו גרמנים נאצים בגרמניה או בכל מדינה מתקדמת אחרת היו נענשים קשות. בגרמניה המערבית ובמדינות אחרות באירופה נענשו קשות, בשנים האחרונות, אנשים שהתבטאו בצורה אנטי-יהודית הרבה פחות קיצונית מהדברים שמעיזים אזרחים ערבים בפומבי במדינת ישראל. הרי אין להמשיך ולסבול מצב ... בעוד שבישראל עצמה קמים אזרחים ערבים ומביעים בפומבי את צערם על שהנאצים לא הפכו את כל היהודים לסבון ואין פוצה פה ומצפצף. התופעות של היתפסות להלכי רוח נאציים שלהם נתפסו חוגים מסויימים, אם גם מצומצמים, של אזרחים ערבים יש לטפל בהן ביעילות ובכל חומרת הדין. הוא הדין לגבי כל אותן ההופעות של חתירה תחת בטחון המדינה ושלום אזרחיה שכמה מבני המיעוט הערבי נותנים ידן להן. תושביה הערבים של מדינת ישראל נהנים ממדה רחבה של חופש. הם אזרחים שווי זכויות אם גם לא שווי חובות. למעשה מצבם של ערביי ישראל טוב, מכל הבחינות, מזה של אחיהם היושבים בארצות ערב...

Samuel Gaber of AJC Neo-Nazi Activities of Arab Countries
Omaha. May 23. An extensive anti-democratic and anti-Jewish Campaign is "being waged with greatly increased intensity" by Arab Propagandists, right-wing extremists and neo-Nazi groups, often operating jointly, in South America and Europe. Samuel L. Gaber, National Field Secretary of the American Jewish Committee said here today. Mr. Gaber reported on anti-democratic and anti-Jewish activities abroad during the course of the past year to a meeting sponsored by the Omaha Unit of the American Jewish Committee held here today... the report was based on material provided by the Committee's overseas offices and representatives...
Mr. Gaber declared that three chief developments in Arab and Neo-Nazi agitation are cause for serious concern. These developments are:
1. A highly accelerated campaign by Arab League offices and personnel in South America backed by "unlimited funds and carried out with top level propaganda skill," which is fomenting a massive campaign of hatred mot only against Israel but also of a general anti-Semitic character.
2. Efforts by European Neo-Nazi and extreme right-wing groups to renew notorious anti-Semitic themes, particularly in relation to the forthcoming third session of the Ecumenical Council in Rome. Arab propagandists are intensifying their activities in Eurooe, particularly West Germany.
3. The growth of "anti-Semitic publication network", which has made significant gains during the past year with the appearance of Neo-Nazi anti-Semitic publications in Western Germany, France and Spain.
Mr. Gaber cited data and reports provided by the Committee's European office, which has conducted a study of Neo-Nazi activities in Europe during the past year...
In Western Germany, extremist and Neo-Nazi groups "seek to play on the fear that any lessening of tensions between the United States will be at the expense of Germany. These groups also advance racist theories in Germany labeling African and Asiatic nationalists movements... determined to wipe out the white race.
Both in France and in West Germany Arab propagandists are maintaining economic and other pressures on "those who do business with or show friendship toward Israel." In Western Germany this year, the Information Office of the United Arab Republic has distributed a propaganda piece entitled "The Problem of Palestine Refugees," which is, in reality, a collation of diatribes against Zionism, Jews and Judaism. The pamphlet denies that six million Jews were destroyed by the Nazis.
European Neo-nazi organization, according to Mr. Gaber "are taking encouragement from developments in South America in the hope that economic and political difficulties there will create new opportunities for extremists."
Turning to the situation in Latin America. Mr. Gaber drew particular attention to what he called "a massive campaign of hatred conducted by the Arab League with huge unlimited funds and a generous supply of all kinds of mass media resources." At the meantime, however, he pointed out, the Argentine government has taken strong measures against Tacuara, the underground Neo-Nazi fascist group which is working jointly with the Arab League in "spreading hate and creating so much divisiveness among the Argentine people."
Mr. Gaber said that the Arab League campaign has mainly two objectives:
1. The development of wide-spread support within the ranks of the Arab community.
2. An intensified propaganda program to spread anti-Jewish material to every major level of Latin American society.
Major tactic of the Arab League have included:
1. The establishment in 1963 of the Nacion Arabe, sold cheaply at practically every newsstand in major Argentine cities and distributed free of charge to civic leaders and opinion molders. No foreign embassy or information center in Argentina has ever "launched such a large circulation propaganda magazine in Argentina." ... Each version of Nacion Arabe manages to features anti-semitic and anti-Israel slurs.
2. Publication of books and pamphlets which invariably include attacks against Israel and Judaism as well as a steady flow of pressure conferences and many forms of lobbying which maintain a high-pitched validate of denunciation of Jews without respite in the press and other mass media.
3. Concealed censorship of anti-Jewish activities by extremist groups and setting up of front organizations which attack Israel and Judaism.

[2] .
The national executive council of the Zionist Organization of America ruling body of the organization between annual conventions, today unanimously approved at the final session of a two-day meeting here a declaration presented by its president, Dr. Max Nussbaum, summoning American Zionists to rally to the defense of the Zionist movement in the face of “the most massive barrage of attacks by its enemies since the establishment of the State of Israel. “
The adoption of the declaration, and a strongly worded warning by Dr. Emanuel Neumann of New York, member of the American Section of the Jewish Agency for Israel and president of the World Union of General Zionists, against what he termed “the export of anti-Jewish propaganda from Cairo to various countries of the Eastern and Western hemispheres” with emphasis on the urgency for the American Jewish community to act on this “sinister aspect of extremist Arab nationalism” highlighted today’s session of the executive council attended by some 200 Zionist leaders from all parts of the country. Jacques Torczyner, chairman of the Council, presided.
The major addresses by Dr. Nussbaum, Dr. Neumann and other Zionist leaders at the session, calling for vigorous measures to counteract the large-scale anti-Zionist and anti-Jewish propaganda spearheaded by Arab emissaries, was touched off by the public addresses delivered by King Hussein of Jordan during his current American visit, who called for an “agonizing reappraisal by American Jews of their attitude towards Zionism” and attacked the Zionist movement as a “movement of aggression. “
In his declaration, Dr. Nussbaum asserted that “American Zionists cannot and will not remain silent in the face of such attacks” describing Zionism as “an ideal which is rooted in Jewish history and Jewish religious tradition for over 2000 years. ” In order that the “American people may have a full understanding of its true aims and purposes, ” he reiterated the principles and ideology of the Zionist movement.
NEUMANN CHARGES ARAB AGENTS ARE LINKED WITH NEO-NAZIS, FASCISTS
Dr. Neumann, in his address, charging Arab nationalist leaders with having “embarked upon an anti-Jewish policy, ” asserted: “It is directed in part against their own Jewish nationals, regardless of their attitude towards Zionism; and against Jews in general, in other parts of the world. They do not shrink from using the poisonous weapon of anti-Semitic propaganda.”
Dr. Neumann further charged that “Cairo has become the center of a planned and concerted anti-Jewish campaign, pursued with the participation of virtually all the Arab states” adding that “they have in fact become the heirs of Nazi Germany by raising anti-Semitism to the status of official policy; and their anti-Jewish propaganda is exported to various countries in the Eastern and Western hemispheres. In many instances Arab agents and agencies are linked with neo-Nazi and Fascist groups equally committed to virulent anti-Semitism. Neither the Western democracies nor even the Jewish communities in the Free World have as yet reacted in any significant measure to this new menace, ” he said.
Mr. Torczyner cited what he described “the growing anti-Israel and anti-Semitic propaganda which is being conducted at American colleges and universities by thousands of Arab students.” He charged that “this propaganda must not be left unchecked as it injects the poison of bigotry and anti-Semitism in the minds of American youth. ” He pointed out that this propaganda by Arab students “is considerably aided by slick and multi-colored publications mailed to the colleges and libraries by Arab Information Centers with headquarters in New York and branch offices in Washington, Chicago, San Francisco, Dallas and Canada.
Dr. Sidney Marks, director of the ZOA, presented a report on the progress of all phases of ZOA activities encompassing membership, education programing, youth, world Zionist affairs and public information.

A press release dated March 5 , 1965 , issued by the Palestine Arab Delegation in New York, was quite in keeping with the official antiJewish propaganda abroad - charging that "Zionists" had started the Second World War in Europe in 1939 and had later "capitalized on the alleged [sic] destruction by Germany of 6,000,000 Jews." The release added: 'It is appropriate to point out that according to statistics published by European governments, it is estimated that more than 45,000,000 Gentiles [sic] lost their lives in the Second World War and yet no one hears about them, no one is capitalizing on their deaths, erecting monuments in their memory, or cashing in through blackmail on their misfortune.'
... the authors had confused the hapless victims of war with those of programmed murder. But such confusion fits the divisive purpose apparent in today's Arab propaganda throughout several continents.

Chapter 5: Arab anti-Semitism The Arab claim that anti-Semitism is not possible for them, since they themselves are from Shem, is nothing more than clinging to words. Anti-Semitism, as it developed in Europe, conceptually and practically, is directed against the Jews only. Such hatred, as hatred of Jews in the format developed by the Nazis in Germany, which was like a malignant disease - has also moved to the Arab world.
The collaboration of the Arabs with Nazi Germany In past centuries, the attitude of the Arabs towards the Jews was conditioned by the religious attitude, which did not foster such hatred. In the worst case, the Jews were considered an inferior race, like the Christians. However, since the rise of Hitler in Germany and the increasing influence of fascism in the Middle East, the influence of the Nazi anti-Semitic ideology on the Arab world of thought has also increased. The direct influence of the Nazi youth leader Baldur von Schirach on the Arab youth in general and in Iraq in particular, when he stayed there in the 1930s and "helped" in organizing the Arab youth movements, is remembered. At the outbreak of the Second World War, sympathy for Germany prevailed in the Arab countries in the Middle East, which arose from admiration for its power and its army at the same time as distrust towards the mandated countries, France and Great Britain. The victories of the "Axis" in the first years of the war and the progress of Germany and Italy on the fronts increased the conviction among Arab statesmen and military personnel that the fall of the British Empire was imminent and that the time had come to take advantage of it to advance their interests, mainly national, with the rising power Germany... Iraq and Saudi Arabia for active German support in the Israel-Israel problem is fed by the anti-Jewish ideological platform of the Nazis... The newspapers and radio in Egypt, nationalist circles in Syria, Iraq and Lebanon, fascist organizations such as "Misr el-Fatah" [Young Egypt Party - حزب مصر الفتاة] in Egypt, the "Futuwwa" in Iraq, and the decisive influence of the Mufti of Jerusalem Haj Amin al-Hussaini in exile in religious circles throughout the Arab world helped to create the pro-Nazi atmosphere. . .
The Arabs and Hitler's holocaust The Arabs justified in their publications the murder of the Jews by Hitler, expressed admiration for Eichmann who was tried for his crimes in Israel and even awarded him the title "martyr". Or alternatively, as stated in a press release of the Palestinian delegation in New York, they blamed the Jews who started [sic] Hitler's war and after that took advantage of: "Alleged [sic] destruction of six million Jews." The message compared this number to 45 million non-Jews whose lives were cut short in the war and no one "takes advantage of this disaster or extorts money" because of it: "No one is capitalizing on their deaths or cashing in through blackmail on their misfortune." [sic] This blurring between peoples who fought and defenseless Jews who were slaughtered serves the global anti-Semitism in which the Arabs are active and often finance it. Anti-Semitism in Arab literature A particularly blatant form of Arab anti-Semitism is found in the extensive literature distributed in Arab countries in general, and in Egypt in particular, even under official inspiration.
It has already been mentioned above that Hitler's programmatic book Mein Kampf was translated into Arabic and was part of the equipment of Egyptian army officers.

'The Spider: Francois.' By Hezi Kamel.
[Dr. Abdul Yousufi (next to the microphone), chairman of the Arab Lawyers' Association, submits a statement regarding the attackers of an El Al plane in Zurich. Yousufi, who is an ally of François Genoud, served during World War II as the deputy commander of the Arab Legion who fought in the service of Hitler.] What is the connection between a neo-Nazi national organization called the Spider and the intelligence services of Arab countries and the legendary treasures of the Nazis smuggled into Germany before the end of World War II and the lost treasure of the FLN. Algeria? And what is the connection between the members of the "Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine" who are on trial at Winterthur and the former SS General Hans Rudel, who fled to Argentina after World War II?The connection exists. His name: Francois Genoud. Age: 51. Citizenship: Swiss. Profession: Banker.
The short man, always wearing gray suits and his thin hair pulled back carefully - looked like a gray clerk that no one would look at twice. But Francois Genoud, the neo-Nazi Swiss banker who was one of the founders of the Nazi party in Switzerland during the Hitler era, is one of the greatest international adventurers of our time. When I first met him about three weeks ago in the courtroom in Winterthur, I thought he was the legal correspondent for one of the Swiss newspapers. He sat and listened intently to hearings in the courtroom and made occasional remarks. Only then, when I saw him in the company of Algerian lawyer Yusufi, who serves as deputy chairman of the Arab Bar Association, did I decide to ask about him. "The little man in the gray suit over there in the corner? Yes, of course I know him," a Swiss journalist answered my question. "This is a well-known Nazi, director of the Arab Commercial Bank in Geneva."
Ties with the Mufti
"It is not clear to me, the Swiss journalist added, what such a guy does here on Winterthur." It was not clear to me either at that moment. However, a few days later, following a number of investigations I conducted in Switzerland, the whole affair became clear. François Genoud - the little man in the gray suit - is one of the main thread pullers in all the major financial transactions of Arab countries and today one of the main funding channels of sabotage organizations in Europe. His presence in the courtroom in Winterthur was not at all the presence of an observer - he came to the place as a capitalist to the place of investment. A considerable part of the expenses of the Arab side in the Winterthur trial and almost all the expenses of the various "leagues" for the Palestinians in Switzerland - are covered by Francois.
Francois Genoud's love for Arabs is a love that depends on the thing. The "thing" in this case - his hatred of Jews.
By 1936, at the age of 21, the young François had already joined the youth organization of the Swiss Nazi Party, the National Union Party, as a founding member. I met in Switzerland some people who remembered him walking around in the "brown shirt" (of the Nazis) that had the swastika tag on a black ribbon tied around the sleeves of his shirt. In 1940, François Genoud made his first contact with the Arabs. Together with a young Lebanese named Dauk (son of an influential Lebanese dignitary in Beirut) he opens a nightclub in Lausanne. This nightclub probably serves as a meeting place for the German spy service whose slave works Genoud. His enlistment in the German intelligence service was made by the head of the town council of Tingen - a Swiss named Guttman - who served as a liaison between German intelligence and his Swiss agents. During his many travels to Germany - during World War II - he met with Hitler and Bormann and then also had first contacts with some figures of the Arab world. He contacted the Mufti of Jerusalem, the infamous Haj Amin al-Husseini, and an Arab of Tunisian descent, Ibrahim Hafid, who was the commander of the Arab Legion fighting in the service of the Germans. One of Hafid's aides at the time - a young Algerian named Yousufi - later became a well-known lawyer and one of Genoud's regular contacts.
The right to Hitler's writings
After World War II, Genoud was very active in providing aid to the Nazis who had fled Germany and tightening his ties with the SS General. Hans Rudel, who fled to Argentina and established a Nazi organization there and helps absorb escaped SS men. It was then rumored that Genoud had helped smuggle to Tangier - the center of international intrigue at the time - the vast art treasures looted by the Nazis from all over Europe.. His most important activity, however, was probably the organization of the smuggling of Nazi treasure into Switzerland and its deposit there in numbered accounts, which no government or foreign entity could afford to get their hands on. For several years after World War II Genoud wandered from place to place with his actions carried out under the guise of almost complete anonymity. In 1952, Genaud's name first appeared in the headlines when he went to war against a German publisher in Düsseldorf, who published a collection of Hitler articles entitled "Visible Things about War and Peace." Genaud then appealed to the courts of Düsseldorf and Paris, claiming that he had all the rights to distribute the books of Hitler, Goebbels and Bormann! Indeed, Genoud won both sentences. It turns out that he has many documents in his hands and written material that was in the possession of Martin Bormann, which raises the possibility that Genoud has been in contact with Bormann to this day (to accept the explanation, that Bormann is still alive). In the ten years following World War II, he concentrated on providing assistance to smuggling Nazis fleeing to Latin America and the Middle East. In an article published in a Basel newspaper in 1964, entitled: "Search for Disappeared Nazis," the author of the article tells of a Nazi organization called "The Spider" which is the successor to another well-known Nazi organization: the "SS Odessa Expatriate Organization." The "spider" weaves its webs all over Europe when its operational center is in Switzerland, where the many millions plundered by the Nazis were also deposited. According to the Basel newspaper, the man in charge of guarding this huge property was a Swiss resident of Lausanne. "His house is similar to the Hitler Museum," the author of the article wrote, "with swastikas everywhere and huge pictures of Hitler on every wall." Of course many easily identified with the figure of the banker from Lausanne. - François Genaud.
Among the famous escape operations of the 'Spider' organization was also the smuggling, from prison in Germany operation, of the Nazi Zech‐Nenntwich who fled to Egypt.
Smuggling the treasure of the "FLN."
Genoud took advantage of his ties with the Mufti of Jerusalem to establish an extensive system of ties in Cairo that he used to get in touch with the heads of the Tunisian liberation organizations of North African countries. In 1955, Genoud moved to Tangier, from where he began to develop ties with the whole of North Africa. In 1956 he maintained close contacts with Dr. Schacht, Hitler's Minister of Finance, and tried to interest him in large investments in Morocco. He also later organized after Algeria's independence, Dr. Schacht's visit to Algeria to advise the government Algerian in investment policy. He then set up in Geneva (again under the advice of Dr. Schacht) the "Arab Commercial Bank" whose job it was to conduct financial transactions (mostly of a dubious and illegal nature) with the Arab world. The "Arab Commercial Bank" was established by: François Genoud in partnership with Hans Reichenberg - former S.S. Officers - and with various factors in the Arab world. A senior Arab diplomat also attended the bank's founding meeting. Thanks to Geno's ties with Ben Bella, he was able to win the post of director of the Algerian People's Bank and became financial adviser to the Algerian government. His main ties, however, were with Mohamed Khider, Ben-Bella's partner, who later became his great enemy. On October 6, 1964, Genoud was arrested by the Ben-Bella government because of his ties to Khider, after being accused of smuggling the famous FLN treasure. Which was in the hands of Khider. In February 1965, Genoud was freed by the Algerians after apparently agreeing with the Algerian authorities to transfer part of the PLN treasury. Estimated at the time at $ 20 million. (This treasure was collected during the underground period of the FLN. From donations by Algerian workers in Europe, who regularly paid taxes to F.L.N.).
The "affair" with the Palestinians
After Mohamed Khider was mysteriously murdered, the FLN's finance affair resurfaced. And the spotlight was once again on Genoud, who had many keys to the vanishing treasure affair. In the meantime, Genoud established new ties - through the Egyptians - with the Palestinian terrorist organizations, which began to emerge as the active factor of the Arab world. He began to finance in Switzerland the activities of the "Friends of the Palestinians Organization" founded in Lausanne by neo-Nazi circles who saw helping the Palestinians as a way of expressing their anti-Jewish feelings. The neo-Nazi aid to the Palestinian idea was so prominent that it began to upset pro-Palestinian left-wing circles in Switzerland. These circles - headquartered in Geneva - formed a rival organization and even began attacks against the neo-Nazi organization. In an editorial published last week, in the Swiss Socialist Party newspaper, entitled: "Strange Observer: In a Winterthur Trial", one of the Socialist Party leaders writes of François Genoud. And the author concludes: The question we ask ourselves is: "Is the ideology of the 'Popular Front' really fascist as its opponents claim or is the Nazis exploiting the Palestinian idea to purify their own name only?" François Genoud certainly has more than one answer to this question.

The Russians and "El Hadj" make strange bed fellows. By Peter Lust. One of the more "efficient" leaders of the El Fatah terrorist organization is a tall, slender man who calls himself "El Hadj" — "pilgrim" in English. "El Hadj" heads a group of "specialists" trained to assemble bombs which in turn are smuggled into crowded civilian areas of Old Jerusalem. In all likelihood, the recent terrorist attack, which cost scores of lives (most of them women and children) are the work of this man. "El Hadj" is a master of disguise. He crosses the border — sometimes in Arab garbs, but more often dressed like a European. He also sports a forged Swiss passport. In his European clothes he does not look one bit like an Arab, and for this reason he was able to cross practically at will until his identity became known. There is a good reason why "El Hadj" is able to pass as a European. He is none other than Richard Winterhalter, formerly of the SS death head squad. Winterhalter, wanted by West Germany, Poland and Czechoslovakia for war crimes, operated both in T e r e z i n (Theresienstadt) and Auschwitz. Winterhalter was the key man who arranged for the death trains bringing elderly people from Terezin to the Birkenau extermination factories. He has also trained the "S p e c i a l Commandos" of Auschwitz prisoners temporarily reprieved for their gruesome task of bringing the bodies of murder victims from the gas chambers to the crematoria. Winterhalter escaped from a British prisoner-of-war camp during summer 1945 and crossed into Italy where he was hidden in a North Italian Monastery. From there, he made it to Egypt where ho converted to Islam. During 1949, he made his pilgrimage to Mecca which enabled him to call himself "El Hadj". The newly created Mohammedan promptly joined the battle against Israel and served under the Notorious Mufti of Jerusalem. Later he was taken over by the so-calted "Palestine Liberation Organization" and today he is the specialist charged with providing the El Fatah terrorists with Nazi "know how". The case of Winterhalter is only one of several similar cases where former Nazi war criminals have been deliberately enlisted to organize anti-Israeli terrorism. The tragi-comic part about all this is the close liaison between Soviet specialists and Winterhaller's organization. The very country which was a mortal enemy of Nazism during World War II, which still claims to be opposed to Nazism and Fascism today, enables one of the worst surviving war criminals not only to live in freedom but to perpetuate his crimes. The Winterhalter case should cause Soviet officials to investigate whether their help and assistance does not sometimes reach the wrong people. This reporter would like to believe, that the Soviet government, with all its faults, could not possibly be interested to see this happen. Next to the Jewish people, who lost one third of its number in the Holocaust, the Soviet people suffered most under Nazi rule. Have the victims of the "Eisatztruppen" in the Soviet Union been completely forgotten? It is my personal hope that the case of "El Hadj", alias Richard Winterhalter, will cause the Soviet government to revise some of their Mid-Eastern policies.
Perhaps even some of the more intelligent Arabs might ask themselves this question: Could an anti-Semitic criminal like Winterhalter serve the cause of the Arab people who, after all, happen to be Semites too?

A violent criminal suspected of being the main link between West German neo-Nazis and the Palestine Liberation Organization’s El Fatah faction is believed to be hiding somewhere in East Germany, according to the federal prosecutor in Karlsruhe. Federal sources said Sunday that the East German authorities were cooperating in the search for Udo Albrecht, who is wanted for a series of violent crimes, including bank robbery. According to the prosecution, he fled West Germany in 1981 and found haven in East Germany, which was governed by a Communist regime until earlier this year. Albrecht, who has boasted of direct access to PLO Chairman Yasir Arafat, is believed to have used PLO facilities in Lebanon to train West German neo-Nazis. If the suspicions of the Karlsruhe prosecutor prove correct, it will be the first conclusive proof that the former East German secret police, the Stasi, not only helped Palestinian terrorists but knowingly protected neo-Nazis.
The media has carried reports in recent years indicating that the old East German regime initiated neo-Nazi incidents in West Germany to prove the Federal Republic was a haven for unrepentant Nazis and anti-Semites.

NEO-NAZISM AND THE PLO THE MYTH OF DEMOCRACY By David Harounof [...] Needless to say, all Palestinian territory in the eyes of the PLO includes Tel Aviv, Haifa and Beersheba. It is conceivable that many have drawn comparisons between the PLO and genuine liberation movements such as the Patriotic Front in Rhodesia and the Sandinistas in Nicaragua, thereby viewing a PLO victory as an inevitable outcome of a popular and national struggle against tyranny.
It is revealing, therefore, to discover that the origins of many PLO protagonists, including Arafat, are not Palestinian at all. Thomas Kiernan, the esteemed American journalist and author, has probably come closer than anyone to extricating the myths about the PLO. His biography of Arafat,' though written in 1975 (and already half forgotten), remains the most important work on the subject because he was able to penetrate the highest echelons of the PLO to obtain; invaluable interviews. . Kiernan proposes that, together. with other co-founders of Fatah, Arafat had the official records of his birth in Cairo destroyed,
What in reality binds the PLO in its efforts to eradicate the phantom of. Zionism is not the desire to release a people from subjugation under an allegedly “racist and imperialist creed." Rather, in line with Arafat’s Moslem Brotherhood upbringing — he was, and probably still is a member of that ignoble body — it is the desire to cleanse.the Middle Easr of any Jewish presence.
(Kiernan concludes his splendid biography by writing that Arafat keeps an Arabic -translation of'the notorious Tsarist, antisemitic tract, “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” on his desk. “It is a volume he opens frequently and earnestly quotes from to visitors,”) PLO officials hold no inhibitions in privately maintaining that the Jews in Israel are an obstacle towards the creation of an Islamic Arab unity extending from the Atlantic to the Indian Ocean.
Few can also deny that the references by the PLO to the “International Zionist Conspiracy” are a macabre euphemism for world Jewry. For this reason the PLO has cultivated ties with neo-Nazi groups all over the world. . The world conference of neo-Nazi organisations held in Barcelona in 1969 was the first manifestation of a: co-ordination of activities, when an ex-SS officer was recruited to command a Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine camp at Basra in Iraq.
During the trial, in January, 1970, of three PFLP terrorists, who had attacked an El Al aircraft in Zurich the year before, a pecuniary relationship was uncovered between Francois Gedoude, a founder of the Swiss Nazi Party, and Fatah. Geroude was discovered to have transferred to Swiss bank vaults a booty of Nazi thefts and robberies to help finance Fatah operations.
In October, 1973, the “Nationalist and Soldiers’ Chronicle” (a German neo-Nazi paper) offered its supporters a free trip to PLO camps in the Lebanon to “learn” about . the Palestinian struggle!
According to French intelligence, an agreement in 1977 between the fascist L’oeuvre Francais and Al Fatah was reached, whereby, the PLO would train the French-members in the arts of terrorism and in return the' French group would conduct ’terrorist' acts against French Jews.
In January, 1978, the general prosecutor of the West German Supreme Court at Karlsruhe uncovered further links between German neo-Nazis and the PLO after four members of the Adolf Hitler Free Corps were arrested for arms running from certain Arab countries at the request of the PLO.
The most serious discovery in recent years of concerted PLO-neo Nazi activity has centred on the neo Nazi Military Sports Group of Karl Heinz Hoffman. Gundolf Keller, the student member of the MSG, who died after exploding a bomb at the Munich Beer Festival in September, 1980 was found to have undergone military training at a PLO camp in southern-Lebanon.
Soon after, West German security forces monitoring Hoffman’s activity In Beirut revealed that he told his PLO associates that he was acting in a manner that Adolf Hitler would have approved of had he been alive.
The invaluable assistance the PLO receives from these perverse organisations is not confined to manpower and moral aid.
An-Israeli friend recently returned from a trip to Egypt revealed how he came upon Arabic translated versions of Hitler’s "Mein Kampf" being sold clandestinely in Cairo suburbs. The inscription, signed by the "Vanguards of the Palestine Revolution," warned Egyptians not to continue the peace process as their Israeli partners were "subhuman [sic] Marxist-spreading capitalist, exploiters.”

The opposition Christian Democratic Union (CDU) has charged that four German neo-Nazis, trained by the Palestine Liberation Organization in Lebanon had the help of the West German Embassy in Beirut despite the fact that they had criminal records and were wanted by the authorities....
In his answers, Baum confirmed that an unspecified number of German neo-Nazis received PLO military training in an Al Fatah camp near Beirut and that this information had been available to West German authorities since the start of 1980. But Baum insisted that the information was not enough to justify legal steps against the leader of the neo-Nazi group training in PLO installations.

A review of Hoffmann’s activities and associates reveals a tangled web in which violent neo-Nazi organizations on the far right made common cause with Palestinian liberation groups who were heroes of the far left...
Hoffmann’s initial connection to the Palestinians was likely through Udo Albrecht. Albrecht was a German freelance criminal who fought with the Palestinians in the 1970 Black September uprising in Jordan against King Hussein, leading a militia of neofascists called the Freikorps Adolf Hitler. Sometime in the late 1970s, Albrecht introduced Hoffmann to Abu Ayad, a senior officer in the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and Hoffmann began to supply secondhand German vehicles, such as military trucks and Mercedes sedans to Palestinian militants in Lebanon. In the 1970s, Lebanon was a hub for international terrorist activity, hosting a diverse array of right- and left-wing groups from France, Germany, and Japan.
For a German neofascist leader like Hoffmann, cooperation with Palestinian militants was not an entirely foreign idea. The relationship between Hitler and Al-Husseini is well known, and there was further collaboration between the European far right and the Palestinians even after WWII. The Swiss financier Francois Genoud, who worked with the Nazis during WWII, was a major financial supporter of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), as well as a close friend of its founder, George Habbash, and of Black September founder Ali Hassan Salameh.
Near the end of his life, Genoud further confirmed suspicions of his involvement in terror activity, revealing to French journalist Pierre Péan that he had personally delivered the ransom letter to Lufthansa after Palestinian militants hijacked Lufthansa Flight 649, which had Joseph P. Kennedy II (former Massachusetts congressman and son of Robert F. Kennedy) on board. Lufthansa paid the $5 million ransom in full, without bargaining.
At times, German neofascists directly aided Palestinian terror attacks. For example, Der Spiegel revealed in 2012 that two German neofascists, Willi Pohl and Max Abramowski, aided Black September in the Munich massacre of 1972 by transporting the terrorists and helping them acquire passports. Like Hoffmann, Pohl’s initial connection to the Palestinians was through selling secondhand vehicles to them in Lebanon. In 1985, English skinhead Michael Davison and two PLO terrorists murdered three Israelis on a yacht near Larnaca, Cyprus.
In 1981, Hoffmann Sports Group began to unravel. Four members escaped a PLO camp and began cooperating with authorities against Hoffmann, complaining of hideous mistreatment, torture, and exploitation. Then in June 1981, Hoffmann was arrested in a Frankfurt airport, en route to Damascus, and put on trial for the murder of Shlomo Levin and Frieda Poeschke. The court ruled that it could not prove Hoffmann and Birkmann were involved, and Hoffmann accused his associate, Uwe Berendt, of committing the murder. Berendt had allegedly committed suicide in a PLO camp in Lebanon, and thus never stood trial. In June 1986, Hoffmann was sentenced to nine and a half years in prison relating to his neofascist activities and mistreatment of comrades in Lebanon. Birkmann received seven years in prison for her involvement.
Despite the Hoffmann Sports Group’s disintegration, other connected groups carried on its destructive legacy. A German neofascist named Odfried Hepp, a former member of the Sports Group, reportedly traveled to Lebanon to receive training in terrorist activities by PLO members. After the breakup of Hoffmann’s group in 1982, Hepp and a fellow neofascist, Walther Kexel, founded the Kexel-Hepp Group, and for a year, carried out deadly bombings against NATO military bases throughout Germany. After being arrested in 1983 and subsequently escaping, Hepp was rearrested in 1985 by French authorities while entering an apartment belonging to a member of the Palestine Liberation Front. Palestinian hijackers demanded Hepp’s release during the Achille Lauro cruise ship hijacking on Oct. 7, 1985—the same hijacking that led to the murder of Leon Klinghoffer, a disabled Jewish American and World War II veteran, whose limp body was hurled overboard along with his wheelchair.
By 1986, both Karl-Heinz Hoffmann and Odfried Hepp were in prison but not for long. In 1989, a German court ruled that Hoffmann had plausibly shown that he renounced his past and he was released. Four years later, Hepp completed his sentence and was released.
...connections between the European far right and Middle Eastern terror groups persist. In 2017, a delegation of the German far-right Der Dritte Weg party (The Third Way) met with Hezbollah in Lebanon.
- ↑ The leader of a neo-Nazi gang that allegedly masterminded..., UPI, Sep 24, 1984.
NUREMBERG, West Germany -- The leader of a neo-Nazi gang that allegedly masterminded the killing of a Jewish publisher and his mistress said Monday his arrest disrupted plans to set up a weapons factory in Lebanon. Karl-Heinz Hoffmann, whose paramilitary Defense Sport Group moved to Lebanon when it was banned from West Germany in 1980, told the public prosecutor at his murder trial that he decided to set up a pistol factory when he found he could not easily obtain the weapons in Lebanon for his right-wing group. He said he thought there would be a market for the weapons among Arabs. 'If you had not prevented me, the factory would be working today,' he said. Hoffmann, 46, was arrested in 1981 at Frankfurt airport during a covert trip to Germany from the Middle East. The prosecution says that while in Lebanon, Hoffmann's group trained under the protection of the Palestine Liberation Organization. Hoffmann has repeatedly denied that the group had any contact with Palestinians. Hoffmann admitted a prosecution allegation he had counterfeited $2 million in U.S. currency in Lebanon, but he denied that that enterprise was launched with PLO help and said most of the fake money never found its way into circulation. Besides counterfeiting, Hoffmann, a graphic artist, is charged with two counts of murder for allegedly ordering the December 1980 murders of publisher and local Jewish leader Shlomo Lewin, 69, and his mistress, Frieda Poeschke, 57, in Erlangen, in central Germany.
Hoffmann's girlfriend, Franziska Birkmannis, is accused of being an accessory to the killings, which are alleged to have been carried out by a now dead member of Hoffmann's group to 'impress' Hoffmann's Palestinian associates.

With the opening of the trial of Adolf Eichmann, in Israel, Arab papers made the following points, among others:
Al-Gumhuriyah (Cairo): 'The world wonders about the views of the Arabs on the Eichmann case... Our belief is that had it not been for the legend of Nazi persecution of the Jews, Israel would not have existed.'
Al-Jihad (Jordan): In the person of Eichmann the Jews are not trying Nazi Germany alone, but also the Christian world. They will try Eichmann on the soil which they usurped 13 years ago with their own crimes.
If the Jewish authorities have the right to try Eichmann, the Arabs have more right to try Ben-Gurion and his gang... (V of A, April 11 [13]).

Arabs use Eichmann's trial on wild incitement against Jews
... How far goes the murderousness of the Arabs has been shown by the daily newspaper "Al Akbar" from Damascus. On the 8th of March, it has been put there such an horrific piece: "If I could taste the blood of every Zionist in the world, I would not hesitate for a moment to do it. Because the Zionists are interested (sic) in drinking the blood (sic. al-Akhbar) of all Arabs and Muslims. To his great honor, it is said about Eichmann that he is the greatest blood purifier (sic) of all time. And let's quote here the words of an Arab poet, Nasib-ar-Rifai, who said: 'If Hitler failed to exterminate you - God saved us'. And this means that Allah has allowed us to live in order to eliminate the Jews and the Zionists. We will remove from the Holy Land the (sic. Al-Akhbar) meanest of all nations."
"Ad-Difaa", a daily Jordanian newspaper, wrote on April 13th: "We do not deny that the Nazis committed many mistakes... But why should Eichmann be judged for his part in having purged Europe from the plague (sic) whose name is (sic. Al-Difaa) the Jews?"
- ↑ Hausner, Gideon. Justice in Jerusalem. United States: Holocaust Library, 1977. p. 346
The Arab press sent Eichmann such messages of encouragement as this in the Jerusalem Times (Jordan) of April 24, 1961: "Find consolation in the fact that this trial will one day lead to the liquidation of the remaining six million."
On the other hand, The Recorder of Aden, May 14 , 1961, claimed that all the figures of the holocaust were forged and the extermination story was all a lie[sic].
After the Mufti episode the trial proceeded to the subject of the death camps, which took up four days, eight sessions.
Since these were the places where the millions were actually exterminated , I found it imperative to bring out the story in some detail.
Here, too, each witness was asked to describe only a small fraction of the reality in each of the five camps on which evidence was introduced. But the reality was not real any more. It seemed that the courtroom itself was now engulfed in the poisonous vapors of the crematoria. At times I could almost smell the lethal gases and the stench of burnt flesh. As the witnesses tonelessly gave their testimony, we relived the nightmare with them. We moved as if in a trance; I doubt whether we were fully cognizant of all that was going on around us in those few days. When we stepped out of the court building, it seemed strange that the sun was shining, the air was pure, and people were going about their usual business. Inside was the image of a man-made hell.
Two witnesses testified in camera on the sterilization operations performed on their bodies in Auschwitz . These were "the practical experiments" with which Eichmann was kept "in close touch" as part of the over-all sterilization schemes discussed at the post-Wannsee conferences.
At one point I myself became in a sense a witness at ...

Reactions To The Eichmann Trial
Israel was condemned repeatedly in the Arab press for violating international law by abducting Eichmann. Still more frequent were expressions of sympathy with him, and even statements that his example should be followed. There were, indeed, some condemnations of Eichmann, but they cannot outweigh these expressions of sympathy.
In the Lebanese paper al-Anwār of June 9, 1960, there was a caricature showing Ben-Gurion and Eichmann shouting at each other. The text below the drawing is as follows: Ben-Gurion: "You deserve the death penalty for killing six million Jews."
Eichmann: "There are many who argue that I deserve the death penalty for not finishing the job."
The Jordanian English language daily, Jerusalem Times, published the following "Open Letter to Eichmann" on April 24, 1961: Dear Eichmann,
I address you in your glass cell to extend a word of sympathy in your present plight. German genius that has invented Sputniks and missiles and all sorts of things has failed to inspire you to avert the disaster that has befallen you.What a pity Eichmann that you allowed those swine[sic] to arrest you and stage their drama. But don't worry Eichmann it will in the end fall on their heads.
Listen Eichmann you are accused of decimating six million of this breed. Whether this is correct or not it is not our object to debate this issue but what we like to say is this if you actually managed to liquidate six million of them and if the remaining six million have been instrumental in .. on the Arabs .. we wonder what would have been the result if the decimated six million would have been allowed to survive.
It is likely that a similar drama would have been staged in another part of the Arab countries. So that by liquidating six millions you have minimized the extent of the calamity and conferred a real blessing on humanity you can imagine dear Eichmann the feelings of the million or so of Arab refugees at this drama.
The object of this trial is simply to attract more tourists to the occupied section and to exploit it for fund raising and for skinning the rest of mankind.
But be brave Eichmann find solace in the fact that this trial will one day culminate in the liquidation of the remaining six million to avenge your blood and the manner in which you have been kidnapped and brought to trial by the very same people who ...from their homes."
[Abdallah al-] Tall writes of Eichmann as one "who fell in the Holy War" (shahid): "We have not forgotten the abduction of the martyr Eichmann, whom the Jewish gangs brought over from Argentina to the gangster ... to be brandished over the head of anyone in the West who might dare to deviate from the line laid down by criminal World Jewry." (p. 282).
Ali Muhammed Ali, in his book Inside Israel (Policy Books series), describes the Eichmann trial as a show: "In outward appearance it was a tragedy, but in its essence it was a vile comedy..."

Grossman remembers that Shukeiri was the founder of the PLO, and served as head of the group prior to Yasser Arafat. Shukeiri was also a fervent supporter of the Nazis. Shukeiri is what links the Arabs' support for the Nazis and the use of the terms "Nazis" and "apartheid" against Jews, who were victims of the Nazis.

Davar - 8 December 1961.
[10].
By the political writer of 'Davar'. A Western diplomat, who asked to remain anonymous, told me yesterday that Arab diplomacy is the only and true inheritor of the Nazi methods. And those who remember the speeches of the Nazi representatives at the League of Nations, until Hitler decided to withdraw from this international organization a few years before the outbreak of the Second World War, those who have not forgotten Ribbentrop's ridiculous appearances at the Royal Court of London - can understand who a man like Ahmed Shukeiri is imitating. In a conversation with a 'Davar' writer, the diplomat discovered surprising information about the text of Shukiiri's speech at the corresponding political committee of the UN Assembly. The man quoted many passages of his speech that were not published in the Israeli newspapers. My interlocutor said that Shukeiri and those Arab speakers who may yet follow in his footsteps, not only are they not blind to the Arab refugees, but they are also burdening their fate. "Let's even assume that the majority of the factual claims about the plight of the refugees is true," The diplomat said, "it is unthinkable that Israel will take back people whose opinion is the same as that of Shukeiri and give entry permits to its staunch haters. If Shukeiri claims that he spoke on behalf of the refugees, he is nothing more than an extortionist who takes away their chances and hopes," he added. That giving the refugees permission to return to their homes in Israel means committing suicide for the State of Israel and "one should not demand of a country to commit suicide by its own hands...

THE ARAB REFUGEE ISSUE IN THE U.N. - No.2
The General Assembly recently completed its annual debate on the Arab refugee question. As usual, the Arabs consumed the time in the Special Political Committee, where the debate took place, in making attacks rather than in discussing the issues involved.
This year they reached a new low in the viciousness of their anti-Israel and anti-Jewish tirades. Particularly vitriolic were the outbursts of Ahmed Shukairy, of Saudi Arabia, who had high praise for the anti-Semitic Tacuara movement in Argentina, and of Hussein Sebri, of Egypt, who referred to Israel as "a Nazi [sic] state." In protest the Argentine delegate indignantly denied the significance of the Tacuara organization; Don Raymon Huidobro, of Chile, rejected the movement as violating humanitarian principles, and Hermod Lannung, of Denmark, lashed out "in the name of decency" at the comparison of Israel with the Nazis. Israel's Permanent Representative, Ambassador Michael Comay, gave expression to the bitter anger of Israel against this shameful equating of Israel with Nazism. On the contrary, he indicated that a close link exists between some Arab representatives and propagandists , and neo-Nazi and neo-Fascist groups.

Israel At U. N. Says Arabs Link with Nazis in Anti-Semitism.
Israel accused Arab representatives of cooperating with Neo Nazi and Fascist groups in the United States, Latin America and elsewhere, to exploit Anti-Semitism as a political weapon. The charges by Michael S. Comay, Israel's parliament representative were made in reply to United Arab speeches... "It would be a sad day for the United Nations if it were to become indifferent or insensitive to any renewal of the Nazi spirit," he said... Mr. Comay's strongest protests were leveled at speeches by Ahmad Shukairy, of Saydi Arabia and Hussein Zulficar Sabri, of the United Arab Republic. Minister of State for United Nations Affairs in the Saudi Government 'saluted' the 'Tacuara' movement in Argentina, which is regarded as a Nazi like association promoting anti-Semitic views. His speech was assailed by both Argentinian and Chilean delegates. "This episode in the debate has serious implications," Mr. S. Comay said, reports the New York Times. "We would hope that Mr. Shukairy's blessing bestowed upon the Tacuara group will serve to focus attention on this phenomenon and produce a backwash of public sentiment inside and outside the United Nations." The Israeli delegate said Mr. Sabri's technique was a "little less clumsy." It consisted, he said, of "trying to pin the Nazi label onto Israel and Zionism, in the hope that the public mind may be confused as between Hitlerism and those to whom it has caused such untold suffering. "The public mind will draw its own conclusions," he said. Mr. Comay remarked that the activities of known Nazis in the Cairo Government had become well-known. He specifically mentioned Johannes Von Leers, a propaganda expert in Hitler's Government, who, Mr. Comay said, has become "Cairo's top adviser" on anti-Semitism. He also mentioned Maj. Leopold Gleim and Maj. Bernard Bender as former Gestapo officers now holding high posts in "the secret police in the United Arab Republic. Mr. Comay expressed surprise that a spokesman had been a close associate of the former Mufti of Jerusalem, a Hitler collaborator.
Of the 12,000,000 civilians murdered in Nazi-occupied Europe, half were Jews, Mr. Comay declared, and thousands of Jewish survivors found their way to Israel after the war, says the New York Times. "These are among people whom Mr. Sabri and Mr. Shukairy and their friends have the monumental indecency to smear as Nazis and Fascists," he said.

Shukeiri's favorites. "Dozens of young people gathered in a large apartment in one of the suburbs of Buenos Aires. The doors were locked. A young man sitting at a table at the head of the room gave a signal and all those present jumped to the 'attention!', tapped their heels together and raised their hands in a Nazi gesture. Chants: 'Hail Taquera' echoed in the room. At that hour, an order was given and three high school boys were brought into the room. They jumped to the 'attention!' and began to read the text of an oath, in which they pledged to fiercely defend the 'eternal values of Christianity and the state.' At the end of the oath, the three wore an iron cross on their chests." This is how an Argentinian journalist describes the ceremony of receiving new members to the Argentine fascist organization 'Tacaura', which as its leader testifies, the 25-year-old, Alberto Ezcurra, his role is "to fight against capitalism and Zionism with one hand and against communism with the other." On last Friday, "Tacuara" found an enthusiastic supporter in the form of the representative of Saudi Arabia at the UN, Ahmed Shukeiri, who during the discussion on the refugees not only praised the activity of this fascist organization, but also suggested that this Nazi movement be placed under the auspices of the UN. The activities of the Tacuara organization, of which Shukeiri is so passionate, are not limited to the distribution of anti-Semitic propaganda material, the dropping of bombs on Jewish institutions that recently occurred in Argentina, and the abuse of young Jewish women and young men - are attributed to this Nazi organization.

It does not require much investigation to see that this organisation's activities bear the stamp of the German nazis. Indeed, many of its instructors are former SS officers.

German weekly Der Spiegel bases report on 2,000-page file compiled by Berlin authorities, made public nearly 40 years after the attack at the 1972 summer Olympics, which resulted in the death of 11 Israeli athletes.
Neo-Nazi activists aided the Palestinian terrorists who perpetrated the massacre of Israeli athletes during the Munich Olympics in 1972, the German weekly Der Spiegel reported on Sunday.
The report is based on a 2,000-page file compiled by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, which was made public at the request of Der Spiegel, ahead of the 40th anniversary of the Munich massacre, to be marked this coming September.
At the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, terrorists from Fatah's Black September organization took hostage members of Israel's Olympic squad. Two Israeli athletes were killed in the initial hostage-taking and nine were killed during a botched German rescue attempt at a Munich airport.
A document released on Sunday, detailing a correspondence between local police in Dortmund and the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, reveals that seven weeks prior to the attack a man named Saad Walli, described as having "an Arab appearance", held a suspicious meeting with a neo-Nazi activist named Willi Pohl.
Saad Walli was the alias of Abu Daoud, one of Black September's leaders and an organizer of the Munich attack, who died in Damascus two years ago.
The newly revealed correspondence does not indicate that German federal security forces and the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution acted in any way to arrest Abu Daoud, despite having preliminary information.
According to Der Spiegel, the neo-Nazi activist aided Abu Daoud in obtaining fake credentials, including passports and other documents. In addition, he is quoted as saying that he "drove Abu Daoud around Germany, where he met Palestinians in various cities."
Currently, Pohl makes a living from writing detective novels, using a different name, and indicates that "without knowing it," he was linked "to the perpetrators of the massacre at the Olympics."
The German activist was also reportedly linked to a follow-up attack planned by Palestinian militants after the Munich massacre. Following instructions by Abu Jihad, then Yasser Arafat's deputy and Fatah's second in command, Pohl was to plan an abduction attack at the Koln cathedral and in the city halls of several major German cities.
However, he was arrested in Munich with grenades and fire arms in his possession in October 1972. Pohl was also found to be holding a threatening letter, meant to be sent to a German judge who had been in charge of the trial of three of the attack's planners.
Moreover, the police report exposed by Der Spiegel indicates that Pohl aided the terrorists to obtain weapons, possibly including those used in the massacre itself. "They originated from a very rare production line," the report wrote of the seized arms, saying the arms included "Belgian casings and Swedish explosives, made only for Saudi Arabia."
"Identical weapons were used by Palestinian terrorists to kill the hostages at the Olympics," Der Spiegel added.
Pohl was sentenced to a short jail term for "unauthorized possession of firearms," only to be released four days after his sentencing and, eventually, making his way to Beirut.
According to Der Spiegel, German authorities feared a terrorist attack could be initiated to release the neo-Nazi activist, similar to the one that took place less than two months following the massacre, when a Lufthansa plane was abducted, prompting the release of three of the attack's planners from a German jail.

Files Reveal Neo-Nazis Helped Palestinian Terrorists
Forty years ago, the massacre of Israeli athletes and coaches overshadowed the Munich Summer Olympics. Though it was never proved, left-wing extremists were suspected of working with the Palestinian terrorists behind the operation. But previously unreleased files seen by SPIEGEL prove that neo-Nazis were involved instead -- and officials knew about it… A Crazy Plan Pohl says that he proposed an international press conference in Vienna, which he would give together with a PLO official. According to Pohl, he flew to Vienna via Paris, which was corroborated by the statement his friend Abramowski made to the BKA foreign intelligence agency at the time, namely that Pohl was in Austria during the Olympics “to take care of something for the Palestinians there.”
When he saw on television that the hostage-taking operation had failed, Pohl left the country. A few days later, he was back in the Middle East, where PLO intelligence chief Abu Iyad was determined to get revenge. In Pohl’s account of events, he says that Iyad blamed the German authorities, more than anyone else, for the fact that the Munich operation had turned into such a disaster. Besides, says Pohl, Iyad believed a rumor that Israeli officers had led the failed rescue effort by German police.
From the standpoint of the PLO intelligence chief, this meant that Germany had intervened in the war between Israel and the Palestinians, making Germany an enemy that had to be dealt with. According to Pohl, Iyad asked to suggest possible German targets of future attacks. A few days later in Cairo, Pohl presented what he now calls a crazy plan.
He proposed occupying several city halls throughout Germany and taking local politicians hostage. Then, on Christmas Eve of 1972, a group of militants would storm the Cologne Cathedral. The goal was to force Germany and other countries to comply with a list of demands. The operation was given the code name “Mosque,” says Pohl.
In mid-October, Pohl and Abramowski traveled to Madrid to receive weapons for these and other operations. They boarded a train to Munich, via Paris, taking the weapons with them. This is Pohl’s version, which essentially corresponds to information in the released documents.

For example, several lines from a verse of a poem published by Sheikh Salah in June 2002 in the Islamic movement's publication 'Swat Al-Haq [Wal-Hurriyah]'. Pay attention to the sensitive lyrics, the sophisticated refinement and the humanism: "Oh the usurpers, the criminals who shell the mosques... Oh the butchers of pregnant women and babies... Oh the usurpers, you are the germs of all time... The Creator has condemned you to be loser monkeys... Victory belongs to the Muslims, from the Nile to the Euphrates".
In the days when politicians, security experts, publicists and even our president Yarom India warn against turning the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from a national conflict into a religious conflict, it is good to have Salah setting things straight. This is not a conflict on a religious basis but on a genetic zoological basis. And I'm not speaking as a Jew but as a bacterium making its way through geopolitical evolution to become a losing monkey. By the way, according to Sheikh Salah, there he has "some leg to stand on" to the claim that this is a conflict over a gastronomic background.

Berlin's Most Rabid Anti-Semite Gets Eight Month Sentence
Berlin, October 3. (JTA) — West Germany's continuing struggle with the remnants of the Hitler era was marked this week by a jail sentence for West Berlin's most rabid anti-Semite of the post war era. Erwin Schoenborn, 43, was sentenced to eight months in jail by the Goettingen district court which found him guilty of libeling Dr. Eugene Gerstenmaier, the Speaker of the last Bundestag.
Schoenborn, who is chairman of various neo-Nazi splinter groups and of a 'German-Arab Society' which has chapters in several cities, was convicted of calling Dr. Gerstenmaier a vile traitor, during a series of small town political meetings.
The epithet was used because Dr. Gerstenmaier, during the Hitler regime, had been sentenced by a People's Court for failing to betray an an anti-Nazi movement.
Meanwhile, the "German Social Movement," which has also relations with the Arab League, held a convention this week in Freudenstadt and featured numerous addresses, most of them marked by anti-Semitic innuendoes, delivered by a number of open devoteees of Hitler. Chief among these was, Karl Priester, former Hitler Youth and S.S. leader who heads now the movement and edits its anti-Semitic monthly magazine.

A Nazi organization from the "Fighting Union of German Soldiers" is currently distributing a proclamation in Western Europe in eight languages - the first of which is Arabic. The proclamation states: "Anyone who believes today, 30 years after World War II, that even one Jew was killed ..."
The proclamation is also written in German (in the "second ranking" after Arabic ...), Spanish, French, Italian, Russian, Czech and English.
Its composer is not hidden. His name appears on the announcer: Erwin Schoenborn of 45 Tale Street in Frankfurt, with a zip code also published the union's bank account number.
These leaflets were recently distributed to everyone on the locked Winter Olympics island in Innsbruck Austria.
It was also learned that the Nazi union would hold a conference in Ludwigsburg on March 27, at which it would protest the continued existence of trials against Nazi war criminals, and on April 9 organized a demonstration in Munich, attended by Arabs. This date was chosen - the union also announced - to "mark the anniversary of Deir Yassin". The demonstration was even given a name: "Euro-Arab sympathy conference" and its organizers announced that it intends to "demonstrate against Israel and Judaism." נאצים מסיתים בערבית

DUESSELDORF Erwin Schoenborn, 64, West Germany's leading neo-Nazi activist, was sentenced in Frankfurt last week to 18 months' jail for defamation, libel and coercion arising from his propaganda attacks against trials of former Nazis. Schoenborn publicly denied that Jews had been murdered in Nazi death camp gas chambers during the Second World War, and claimed that the gas chambers had not even existed.
He had offered a reward...

University provocation According to Jewish students on campus, in recent months, clashes are held almost every or second day between Castel people and the Arab students, and their supporters Campus people. "On Memorial Day, students harassed ... the memorial candles that were placed on memory of the martyrs of the Israeli military. Later, soul candles in memory of the victims of the Holocaust - were removed, on Holocaust and Heroism Day, Swastikas were drawn in different places in the dormitories, as well as on the door of the dormitory manager's room.

The hijacking, famously included a separation of Israeli and Jewish hostages from non-Israeli and non-Jewish passengers.
In this regard, it is worth noting recent claims that this selection included only Israeli Jews. Such claims are false. It is beyond dispute that at least 10 non-Israeli Jews were obliged by the hijackers to join the group of 84 Israelis. It is also indisputable that a number of Israeli dual nationals and non-Israeli Jews succeeded through subterfuge in joining the group that was released. These two facts suggest, unsurprisingly, that the hijackers were unable to ascertain with forensic certainty the ethno-religious identity of all their hostages.
But the undisputed involuntary presence of a number of non-Israeli Jews among the hostages refutes the notion that the hijackers did not also target people of this description among the passengers. Such benign indifference would have been entirely out of character for members of the Revolutionary Cells, given their known targeting of non-Israeli Jews in Germany.

At Entebbe, 148 non-Jewish hostages were separated from the 94 Jewish passengers, most of them Israeli nationals, and the Air France crew. The non-Jewish hostages were released within two days; the terrorists made clear the Jewish passengers would be killed if their demands were not met. The Ugandan government, led by its infamous leader Idi Amin, announced its support for the hijackers, punctuated with an appearance by Amin himself in the airport terminal hall in which the hostages were being held.

That the idea of writing a book came to me at that time and that no one came along later and talked me into it. Just as no one talked me into writing the letter to Spiegel in which I denounced the planned assassinations of Galinski and Lipinski. What happened at the old airport at Entebbe is Auschwitz as far as I am concerned. What did happen? As soon as I found out that at Entebbe they had separated the passengers from the plane into several groups, Jews on one side, everyone else on the other , I immediately associated that with what had happened at the freight yards, where the trains left for Auchwitz.
That German guerrilla members like Boese and Brigitte Kuhlmann could allow themselves to divide people up as they did, I can't imagine any thing more pathetic...

Hans-Joachim Klein decided to abandon the RZ when he realized that his comrades were behaving like the Nazis in Auschwitz by separating the Jewish passengers from the non-Jewish ones after the hijacking of the Air France plane to Entebbe. Klein also condemned the RZ plot to assassinate Galinski, leader of the German Jewish community and exposed the plot.

After the Boeing 707 plane took off from the Italian capital, it was taken over by two terrorists from the "Popular Front" and directed it to Damascus. When the plane landed in the capital of Syria, the passengers and crew hurried to leave through the escape hatches, because the hijackers threatened to blow it up immediately after landing. And indeed, a short time later, the plane crashed in its front part. The non-Jewish passengers were immediately released, followed by the 4 Israeli women who were among the passengers, two remained Prof. Shlomo Samolov and Mr. Saleh Moalem were held in a Syrian prison for 99 days...

For its part, the PLO began in the mid—1970s to seek out British and French neo-Nazi groups, and in 1977 Fatah made a deal with the French Work (L'Oeuvre Francaise), a neo-Nazi group, to train its members in terrorist operations. L'Oeuvre Francaise agreed to conduct terrorist operations on behalf of Fatah.
