Spanish Nationalist History in the Spotlight Spanish racial nationalism — past and present — has received viral attention online in recent weeks following a speech by young Falangist activist Isabel Medina Peralta.
This speech, widely shared online and reported by the mainstream media, was part of a rally of 300 Spanish nationalists in central Madrid on February 13th, commemorating the anniversary of the Battle of Krasny Bor, near Leningrad in February 1943.
During this battle the Division Azul (Blue Division), comprising Spanish volunteers dedicated to the struggle against Bolshevism fought a heroic action against Stalin’s Red Army hordes. Though they incurred heavy casualties — more than 70% of their troops killed, wounded or captured — the Blue Division and their comrades from the 4th SS Polizei Panzergrenadier Division turned back the Soviet advance.
Adolf Hitler personally designed the Blue Division Medal following the noble sacrifice of the Spanish volunteers at Krasny Bor.
About 20% of the first Blue Division volunteers were students, mainly supporters of Falangism, the radical wing of Spanish nationalism associated with José Antonio Primo de Rivera until his capture and execution by communist republicans in November 1936 during the early stages of the Civil War.
Paying tribute to the Blue Division, Isabel Medina Peralta said: “It is our supreme obligation to fight for Spain, to fight for Europe, now weak and liquidated by the enemy. The enemy is always going to be the same, although with different masks.”
Isabel Medina Peralta is an organiser for the women’s section of La Falange, a party founded in 1999 whose ideological origins are in the Falange Española de las JONS, the party that upheld José Antonio’s political legacy as the voice of radical nationalism during the Franco years......
Falangists were undermined by an extraordinary conspiracy masterminded by British intelligence via an international gangster of Majorcan Jewish origin — Juan March.
In Issue 58 of H&D, published in 2014, our assistant editor Peter Rushton wrote a detailed article about this operation — codenamed Goldeneye — in which the “Cavalry of St George” — massive quantities of gold — were deployed to keep Spain out of the Second World War.
The strange story of Juan March was first brought to Peter Rushton’s attention almost thirty years ago by an elderly Anglo-Spanish couple who attanded reunion dinners of the Friends of Oswald Mosley in London. He was later able to document the story in extensive research at the UK National Archives.
In the 1990s Peter Rushton was one of several H&D readers who represented John Tyndall’s British National Party at annual November 20th rallies commemorating José Antonio, both in Central Madrid and at the Valle de los Caidos mausoleum.
As part of these events Mr Rushton visited a private Division Azul museum in central Madrid, as well as the offices of Pedro Varela’s CEDADE and the Alianza por la Unidad Nacional (AUN). Since that time, the great heritage of Spanish nationalism seemed to have been repressed by leftwing Spanish governments, including the disgraceful disinterring of Gen. Franco from his tomb at the Valle de los Caidos. However the latest Madrid demonstrations and the widely publicised speech of Isabel Medina Peralta mark the movement’s revival and the first signs of a new dawn for Spain.

Isn't it thrilling? These young people are obviously dedicated, serious and organized. Some of you will laff at the idea but there's still an urgent need for exposing the USSR's crimes, honoring its vanquishers etc. And there will be as long as the masses have such a media-governed blind spot on the subject (and Russia still rattles its saber about its former captive nations).
How about that horrible jew the thoroughly jewed English sent in to wreck the situation. If "God" is really going to judge the nations someday he'll surely have to start with the sceptered isle. Peter Rushton is a great rightist -- writes for the UK's nationalist Heritage and Destiny mag. I assume but can't verify he's related to the late great J. Philippe Rushton. NATIONALISM IS HAPPENING beyond ameriKa's wishy-washy shores. Grab hold to some! (Certified SC grammar.)
