Siege

by James Mason

  And in more recent times we have seen others: Joseph Tommasi who first set this Movement on a completely revolutionary course. At this point it should come as no surprise to anyone that I would include in the first rank the name of Charles Manson, probably the farthest ahead of his time, for having done in fact many of the things outlined in the highly futuristic - but nonetheless straight-down-the-line - Turner Diaries.

  Those bogged down in System thought-processes hate men of action but Rockwell knew, and as he wrote and DEMONSTRATED, the people will only respond to a man of action. Any other than a man of action is effectively INVISIBLE. The truth will not make you free; only ACTION. How easy it has been for them to suppress all our truth. Not so easily can they hide ACTION. It has the effect of leaving the fakers and the parasites standing alone and exposed as in the middle of a forty-acre field. It is electrifying. It is unifying. It builds the confidence to go on toward even greater things.

  One thing pretty much for sure is that we may take a cue from our communist adversaries and look at what were known in the Forties and Fifties as "transmission belts". And as unpalatable as it may be for many in the Movement, it was said of Stalin that what kept him in power over the huge, world-wide communist apparatus was not the terror at his command but the faith, the trust and the respect that his name inspired in the rank-and-file. Men are more apt to make sacrifices for those whom they look up to for those men have made even greater personal sacrifices or have gained far greater results themselves. And that kind of stature doesn't come quick or easy. Commander Rockwell certainly had it. Joe Tommasi had it. The number is few.

  The man of ill repute today must one day go on to emerge as the Hero that he is just as our entire Movement must emerge as the saviour of an entire People. And the fever of action-orientation must break out of the isolation it presently is in and assume infectious proportions before our revolution can hope to sweep over the land, taking every obstacle in its path. But it all begins with the proper thought. Those with a lot of re-thinking to do had better get started.

  Promise Destroyed; Promised Destruction

  At the height of Western development, that is, during the mid and latter Nineteenth Century, the best brains and philosophers accurately predicated what the next century would hold for Western Man, the White Race. And that was Adolf Hitler, National Socialism and the Third Reich in Germany. As hard as it is for many of us today to view the affairs of Western life in the Nineteenth Century as anything but grand and glorious, those great philosophers, such as Nietzsche, hated their own times and projected towards something much brighter to come over the next two or three generations in Europe. Come it did like a miraculous resurrection following the disaster of the First World War and the future could hardly have appeared more secure. Hitler was the embodiment of that which the best had foretold, from Wagner to Chamberlain, from Gobineau to Grant. Not only the fulfillment of German national destiny but the answer to the total dilemma of the West, the promise of the future of Aryan Man to be built upon the foundations already laid from the time of the Renaissance, the Crusades and even before, to complete the compassing of the globe and to go on to reach out for the universe.

  Only a lunatic or an otherwise fevered brain could have conceived even a tiny glimpse of the Gotterdammerung of Europe, the Second World War, which ended - for all time - that promise that had begun with the very beginnings of the West itself following the collapse of Rome and of Classical Civilization. In that sense, true history came to a halt in 1945.

  Since that time, what we have witnessed has amounted strictly to the decomposition of the dead body of what had been traditionally known as the West. And the process enters high gear as we look about us today. Our best latter-day philosophers, from Francis Parker Yockey (author of Imperium) to William Gayley Simpson's excellent work Which Way Western Man?, and even including Commander Rockwell's contribution to the field, White Power, all trace the growth, the decline and the final destruction in their sagas of the West - the world in which they each matured and lived. They analyze the death symptoms and place the blame and responsibility squarely where they belong. But with regard to the future they all agree on the same thing as well: either the suicidal trends are reversed mighty shortly or all culture perishes forever. None of them are able to offer any bright ray of hope, any assurances whatsoever, as did their predecessors one hundred years ago. They pose the challenge of whether we will be able to put the lie to that maverick of thought among them, Oswald Spengler, who said so long ago that we were finished after all. And that is precisely where we stand today.

  Perhaps the one solid development that has occurred within the Movement in recent years - very recent years - is the consensus that not only is the total destruction of the world-wide System and Establishment inevitable now, but it is our only best hope. Not even Spengler himself could have foreseen a twist like that.

  Those of us within the traditional Movement are today running a dangerous risk of going down with a past that we refuse to turn loose of. The old NS phrase that announces that we are not the last star of the evening but the first start of the morning is hollow and "trite" by contemporary, smug definitions of "past" and "future". Adolf Hitler represented the END of one world-historic era and the man who represents the START of a new one either has not appeared or he has not yet been recognized. This man, whoever he may be, will however definitely pick up where Hitler left off, of that we may assure ourselves.

  There have been in the past, and still are today, many men who can be considered as great leaders and "pointers of the way". So far though they have all been of a single mold and, so far, none of their results have even approached the spectacular, much less the epoch-making, which is after all what is required. We must have a TOTAL break with the past if we are to survive it. This means in very practical terms that we should, we must, take up looking in places OTHER than those to which we've become too familiarly accustomed. We must broaden our scope

  Now if our latter-day prophets in the line of Yockey, etc., were unconsciously saying something profound when they apparently left us hanging with the specter of desolation, then it would mean that a man would one day come to take all these loose, unexplained, incomprehensible ends into his hands and make something of them that we could use, that we could understand and follow. If a man never wrote anything of his own then that would make it all the much harder for the rest of us to see and know him. But there was once before a prophet who wrote nothing in his own lifetime and who was recognized only after his death. In our supposed present level of higher enlightenment, we might hope to avoid the repeat of such a tragedy and embarrassment. But can we?

  Historic phases come and go but the pattern, the historic pattern, doesn't change. Rockwell might say that unless we were able to be ABANDONED by Providence itself - as he frequently referred to it - then it seemed impossible to believe that we could be kept thus down forever. That would have to be then the kernel of our essence that keeps us believing. And in line with this thought would be the repeating historic pattern of a man being sent in amongst us at the moment of crisis to make the critical difference. We must not fall into the trap of stereotyping the kind of individual, from where and in what manner, who might fulfill this historic promise.

  First of all, would he not have to be totally APART, right from birth, from this System and this Establishment if he truly were to be a prophet for the future of our Race? And, in terms of practicality, what would this mean? Might not it mean someone you'd hesitate to sit next to at a coffee counter? Would it not mean a total outlaw? Second, would not a man with such an historic mission to accomplish be one of extraordinary powers of personality, mannerism and speech? Would he not be a LEADER of exceptional magnitude? And would the System - could it - afford to allow such a man to roam free to do his natural work? Third, would this man with a sacred awareness act the part of our typical Right Wing fakers, i.e., a pretentious lout all decked-out in gaudy unifor
m and demanding fealty from a handful of pitiful defectives like some idiot? Or would he be found to be LIVING in his one-on-one existence in a microcosm of the exact same position as our whole people lives in, in harsh reality, at the very BOTTOM? He would be FOR REAL and in this world in its current state, "for real" means not very pretty. Have we the guts to look it in the face even if it means our own LIVES?

  This is only another way I am trying to show the Movement of approaching Charles Manson, for there is a great deal more to him than is generally supposed. I say only that the case merits a closer look on the part of each and every National Socialist who desires to be part of the future. To scorn the strange man in the shaggy beard who sits locked in a System jail cell simply because he doesn't fit some set standard for what we might be expecting or hoping for is to be very foolish indeed. Be on the lookout for the thief in the night. It isn't that we've been looking in all the obvious places because, from an historic standpoint, we simply haven't been. We've been looking in all the easy places, rather like sitting in one's living room at home and watching the progression of clowns pass before the screen of the TV over a period of years. The stakes themselves and the nature of the circumstances should tell anyone of logical mind that nothing about this will be pleasant or easy, let alone conventional.

  I've been assured that things will happen fast when they begin to happen.

  Forces Which Are Positive

  What shames the entire Right Wing existing today is that Hitler outlined, step-by-step, what to do and how to do it in Mein Kampf. Nobody since Rockwell and Tommasi has had the guts and the gumption to do it. Hitler also told us within the pages of Mein Kampf precisely how to spot the right man, our best friend, at a glance, and we have for the most part failed to heed his guidance in that as well. What propelled Hitler and his Movement in Germany ever forward was duty, love and devotion, all of which were applied under the most expert management. Doing the best one can do given the circumstances of the moment. Yet, allowing for what occurred in 1923 and in 1945, we must always bear in mind that even the best, most inspired efforts may be overwhelmed.

  Right Wing hate and paranoia won't make it and cannot hope to form the basis of a movement. The power and force trip won't make it either for the Movement is powerless. Socio-political tunnel-vision, being too close to our work, is fatal because everything must be taken and viewed in balance with everything else. Someone said that we are "operating in a vacuum". We are not. A better way of putting it is that we are "starring in our own movie". There must be total awareness, not partial ignorance. There must be absolute love for our own Kind plus an abiding respect for all Nature. There must be the spirit of sacrifice, something which was always at a premium in the Right and which has now all but evaporated.

  Because we were hyped on the para-military approach, because we saw only narrowly, because we were very ignorant of what was going on around us, because were largely unaware and because hate and paranoia were two of our main pillars, we lost track of events after 1967, that is, when we lost our leader. Commander Rockwell.

  The very year of Rockwell's death a new path was being blazed three thousand miles away on the other side of the continent. Two very short years later, in 1969, it burst upon the world as few things have done before and it remains alive and in full force with us today. Even as National Socialists, we have been blinded and have proven equally vulnerable to the System media misrepresentation every bit as much as the cursed and despised "masses", the "goyim". We are fully capable of being just as bigoted and prejudiced as the Jews and the Liberals claim we are. It took me fully twelve years to really wake up and see that here is a man and a movement with all the right credentials that Hitler himself specified and which has to qualify positively as the System's "most reviled".

  [Vol. X, #9- Sept., 1981]

  Power to Blow Nazis' Minds

  We were supposed to be the ultimate mind-blow and indeed we were until after the death of Rockwell. Still in all, at the best of times, we labored and struggled under the stigma of "un-American", again, because of the past. The Commander sat up most nights painstakingly devising ways to shock the pants off of complacent Americans. One man succeeded in doing this without so much as trying. There is only one man and one group of followers who can conceivably be considered as being smeared as much, if not more so, than Adolf Hitler and his Nazis in Germany. And, it is important to note, smeared by the self same people. With Jewry and its accomplices all-triumphant at the close of World War Two, and with the Nuremberg Trials as a precedent, can the outcome of any head-on clash between this man and his followers and the System - especially in 1969- be doubted? The System is as fearful as it is vengeful.

  At a closer look, if, as anyone will agree, true leadership is a pyramid then the fact that nothing of a positive, epoch-making nature is happening currently has an easy explanation. The leader is jailed and the pyramid is thus turned upside-down. Today's Right Wing is notoriously made up of born losers while the Party in Germany was composed of born winners. Only Hitler himself - by virtue of an extremely fortuitous genetic combination - might have been taken as a "loser" during his thirty-year apprenticeship period, but yet rose to the top as the Leader of Leaders. One man today rose to the top of a group of people taken mainly from society's elite upper-crust whose own origins were something less than modest. The time, the place, the wrappings are different. The phenomenon is the same. Hitler and Rockwell stressed the importance of appealing to the young. This man did so as naturally as he did it dynamically. Reality is emphasized. Wishful thinking negated. The traditional Right has the stigma of being sexually hung up. It was women who voted Hitler into power and it was Commander Rockwell who said, "A man who won't fuck won't fight." One person today has a reputation for having declared war on sex hang-ups. Rough, back-to-nature survivalism was being practiced in the 1960's. Rather than a stag milieu, this group was made up of men, women and their children. Only Whites were permitted. Jews were recognized for what they are. Environmentalism was practiced and war was declared against polluters and exploiters in the 1960's. Death to System sucks and Hollywood phonies was practiced... and a System lynching took place.

  The Truth Is One

  The One Truth came to be called National Socialism by Adolf Hitler in 1919. Today, under a different setting it might be called Universal Order, or something of the like. No one has a monopoly on the truth. And no one has a monopoly on the proper modus operandi: DO IT! No one is invulnerable to the common pitfalls, like blabbermouths on the inside. Anyone who really hits the System can expect to be hit back. And when it involves the System's "President" who publicly voices the "thumbs down" before any trial has taken place, then you know it must be of a unique nature for sure.

  I am no kind of a sucker for a bandwagon or a con game of any sort. The fact is that, after doing my own trip for over twelve years while all this other was transpiring, almost totally oblivious to it all, I stumbled onto a discovery similar only to the discovery I made when I bumped into Adolf Hitler - the real one as opposed to the media-created one which everyone is aware of. And as with that earlier discovery, I proceeded to check it out thoroughly. To first read all the System trash available on it and then to unravel and separate truth from lies. To get to know the actual people involved rather than to take someone else's word for it. To begin to get personally involved in it myself and start to become identified with it not giving a damn what anyone else - in their ignorance - cared or said. The experiences and feelings that I went through during last fall and winter after making the acquaintance of Charles Manson and members of his Family can only be compared to those I went through after first becoming a National Socialist and dealing with the rest of the world as such. It was and remains a special kind of feeling. To sum it up I quote from one Family member who commented after I had introduced her to the books of George Lincoln Rockwell (for she was already familiar with Mein Kampf
), "Where Rockwell stops, Manson begins."

  Of the two groups - ours and Manson's - theirs is the more current and up-to-date. Psychologically and in coming to grips mentally with the nature of the situation, they are way ahead of us. Practically and operationally, we are ahead of them. It can only be compared to making contact with another intelligence in the universe. "What has your science learned?" They are leery only of individuals, not of the world and the situation itself as so many in the Right are. They expected ultraviolence and blood-and-guts from us just as I was told by the Jewish media to expect of them. The basis of our idealism is practically the same whereas our redneck and cultivated "macho" image makes us out to be barbarians, the preponderance of women in the Manson Family - though no less action-minded gives them a lot more of a religious, "apart" quality. They are in fact very moral, quaint in many ways, naive in some ways, polite, soft-spoken, but more fiercely dedicated than most I've known calling themselves National Socialist. They are scrupulously honest. They bewilder me at times. They are very, very slick. They are keenly intelligent and usually know what you're about to say before you say it. They resent the image made for them by the media far, far more than we resent the one that has been made for us. We laugh at and enjoy ours while they are outraged and indignant over theirs. When dealing honestly and openly with them - as I always have done - we get along together magnificently. Lying and holding back, or the playing of phony ego or personality games with them is detected immediately and is held up before one just like a mirror. Racially, they are all tops. Maybe when we speak of the kind of person and mentality of the future, we are actually talking about these kind of people.
