Poland
======
The Skinhead movement has found adherents in Poland where
their violence has become deadly and their political extremism
has escalated since the fall of Communism. The Polish
Skinheads' anger and energy have been given direction by
far-right nationalist forces.
Violent behavior is a hallmark of the Polish Skinheads. They
======================================================
seek out victims at mass gatherings, such as soccer matches
and rock concerts. Smaller groups also single out individuals
for assault. The Skinheads tend to avoid provoking the police,
but have fought them on occasion when the police have tried to
quell their disturbances. After an initial perception of
spotty law enforcement, the police response to the Skinhead
problem is regarded as having improved, particularly since the
killing of a German truck driver in October 1992.
=================================================
Hard-core racist Skinheads in Poland total approximately
2,000, along with twice that number of supporters and
hangers-on. Skinhead activity has been observed in Warsaw,
Krakow (especially the steel-producing suburb of Nowa Huta),
Lodz, Katowice, Wroclaw (Breslau), Gdansk, Gdynia, Poznan,
Sopot, Szczecin, Pulawy, Czestochowa and Legnica.
First Appearance
Skinheads first appeared on the Polish scene in the
mid-1980's. In the period just before the collapse of the
Communist regime, they engaged government forces in street
battles. But soon afterward, a sizable number took a turn to
the far right. In May 1990, Skins served as bodyguards at the
---------------==============================================
First Congress of the Polish Right, where they beat up
======================================================
left-wing demonstrators protesting in front of the hall. The
=======================================================
Skins were members of a nationalist group called Polish
National Renewal (Narodowe Odrodzenie Polski). Skinheads again
provided security at a convention of several nationalist
parties in December 1992.
In 1993, National Radical Offensive (Ofensywa Narodowo
Radykalna) was formed in Krakow by approximately 50 Skinheads,
intending to harass leftists and to coordinate Skinhead
groups. It has participated in a number of right-wing
demonstrations.
Anti-Semitic and xenophobic rhetoric in the bitter and
=====================================================
divisive presidential election of 1990 and the subsequent
======================================
parliamentary elections further fueled the politicization of
Polish Skinheads. Far-right political groups (most of them
marginal) that have influenced them include the National Front
of Poland (Narodowy Front Polski), the recently formed and
similarly named Polish National Front (Polski Front Narodowy),
several separate outfits that use the name National Party
(Stronnictwo Narodowe), and, most natably, the Polish National
Community/Polish National Party (Polska Wspolnota
Narodowa/Polskie Stronnictwo Narodowe), led by Boleslaw
=======================================================
Tejkowski. The PWN/PSN, which has enrolled Skinheads as party
=============================================================
members, preaches that the Poles "are being ruled by Jewish
============================================================
nationalists" who it maligns as former "Communist torturers"
============================================================
turned "capitalist exploiters." The "USA, Germany and Israel
============================================================
are taking over our national riches," says the party.
====================================================
While older party members print and peddle leaflets and
publications, it is the Skinheads who have heeded Tejkowski's
appeals to demonstrate in the streets. The PWN/PSN maintains
--------------------------------------======================
contacts with extremists in other countries, including
======================================================
Jean-Marie Le Pen's Front National in France, the Russian
----------------------------------------------===========
group Pamyat, and the Ukrainian Pan-Slavic Movement. Tejkowski
==============================================================
also boasts of contacts with the North Korean dnad Iraqi
=======================================================
embassies in Warsaw. Buring court proceedings against
===================
Tejkowski in February 1992, Skinheads demonstrated inside and
outside the courthouse in Warsaw, and beat two journalists.
Tejkowski was being tried for inciting Skinheads to attack
============================================================
Jews and others, but he went into hiding to avoid court-ordred
=============================================================
psychiatric tests. In October 1994, Tejkowski was given a
=================
one-year suspended sentence, but was told that he would spend
that time in jail if he resumed his activities within two
years of the ruling. He declared that he would carry on in the
same fashion despite the court's decision, reportedly vowing
to "continue criticizing the authorities until they are
overthrown."
"Poland for the Poles"
=====================
The targets of Skinhead propaganda and violence are so-called
aliens, be they foreigners, Jews or punk rockers. Anti-Semitic
slogans are routinely shouted at their demonstrations. In
April 1995, for example, some 80 young men, most of them
Skinheads, chanted "Down with the Jews" and "Poland for the
Poles" during a demonstration in a Warsaw square. Skins yelled
anti-Jewish slogans during an April 1992 ceremony to observe
the 51st anniversary of the formation of the Nazis of the
========================================================
Jewish ghetto in Czestochowa. The Skinheads, who came from
============================
Krakow, Lodz, Poznan and Wroclaw, erupted in a vocal barrage
as the Israeli Ambassador to Poland unveiled a commemorative
plaque to the victims. Police quickly quelled the disturbance
without any arrests. Skinheads and their allies have attempted
to disrupt other Holocaust commemorations since then. Skins
====================================================
have also demonstrated in front of the Israeli embassy in
Warsaw, and have burned an Israeli flag in Szczecin.
Violence aimed at Jews has been physical as well as
===================================================
rhetorical. In July 1991, Skinheads attacked a female student
=============================================================
at Warsaw University who "looked Jewish," cutting her face
==========================================================
with a razor. She lost an eye. The Jewish Historical Institute
==============================================================
in Warsaw was attacked by a gang of Skinheads in November
=========================================================
1990. When they were unable to force the doors, they stoned
===========================================================
the building, breaking windows. A police spokesman in Wroclaw
=============================================================
said Skinheads were beleived responsible for the destruction
============================================================
of 40 tombstones in that city's Jewish cemetary in April 1992.
==============================================================
On Rosh Hashana (the Jewish New Year) in 1991, the Warsaw
=========================================================
synagogue was attacked by a group of young thugs, including
===========================================================
Skinheads, resulting in injuries to two elderly worshippers.
============================================================
Since that incident, the police have maintained a permanent
==========================================================
presence near the synagogue.
============================
Jewish Pope
============
Skinheads and other extremists frequently use the term "Jew"
as a label for any of their targets regardless of whether they
are actually Jewish. Pope John Paul II, Lech Walesa, numerous
government officials and large numbers of priests and bishops
are "Jews," according to the publication of the PWN/PSN.
Germans are also a target of the Polish Skinheads, who hold
that a reunified Germany, along with increased German
investment, poses a threat to Poland. Polish Skins are active
in Silesia, an area with a German minority that Poland
acquired from Germany after World War II, and that German
revanchists yearn to recover.
Mutual Hatred
Hatred of foreigners has propelled both German and Polish
Skinheads to commit violence against citizens of each other's
countries. German Skinheads attacked a busload of Polish
tourists on October 3, 1992, following an open-air concert in
Massen that attracted more than 1,500 Skinheads. Two days
earlier, three German truck drivers were attacked by a gang of
Polish Skinheads in Nowa Huta. One of the victims was killed.
The police quickly identified and arrested several suspects,
and there was vigorous local condemnation of the killing. In
Opole, in February 1992, Polish Skins attacked a group of
Germans and Poles in a cafe, and beat other Poles who tried to
intervene.
Others who have been assaulted are Arabs, Gypsies, and black
students at universities in Krakow and Wroclaw. One of the
Skinheads arrested for the killing of the German truck driver
was already under investigation for the beating of two Arab
students. A week after the assaults on the German truck
drivers, another gang of Skinheads attacked a shelter in Bytom
that housed Romanian Gypsies. In a separate incident, an
elderly Gypsy woman was beaten by Skinheads in a December 1992
attack on Gypsy houses in Chorzow. In addition, while no
violence broke out, a rally by 100 Skinheads in Krakow during
March 1992 featured demands to "stop the inflow of
foreigners." They were prevented by the police from marching
to the former Soviet consulate to stage an anti-Ukrainian
demonstraton. Recently, cases of Skinheads beating up blind
youth have also been reported.
In February 1995, a black American basketball player, Thomas
Eggleton, who plays for the local team in the town of
Stargard, was attacked by a group of Skinheads who shouted
insults and beat him.
Skinhead Style
The Skinheads in Poland have adopted the accoutrements of
their counterparts in the West: Doc Martens boots, narrow
heans and thin suspenders. They frequently wear T-shirts
inscribed "Skinhead Oi."
Polish Skinhead bands (some of which may no longer be active)
have included BTH, Grunwald, Ramses and the Hooligans,
Szczerbiec (Sword), White Power, Slav Power, Zyklon B,
Fatherland, Poland, Sex Bomba, Zadruga, Honor, Sztorm 68 and
Legion. The bands Konkwista 88 and Falanga 88, both from
Wroclaw, describe themselves as National Socialist ("88" is
neo-Nazi code for "Heil Hitler," H being the eighth letter of
the alphabet). Followers of Konkwista 88 and Falanga 88
attacked a gathering organized by black students to celebrate
the release of Nelson Mandela from prison in South Africa.
News about the music scene fills the pages of Skinhead
publications. Some Polish skinzines are _Szxzerbiec_,
_Kolomir_, _Skinhead Polski_, _Czas Mlodych_ and _Krzyzowiec_.
A piece written for a British skinzine by Polish Skinheads
indicated that they have been in contact with their
counterparts elsewhere in Europe, especially the former
Czechoslovakia.
There are other international connections. The Swedish
neo-Nazi Skinhead gang Vitt Ariskt Motstand (White Aryan
Resistance), for instance, has established contacts in
Szczecin in the region of Pomerania. Some German neo-Nazi
Skinheads had hoped to form an alliance with their Polish
counterparts against "aliens" from further to the south and
the east, but they have been stymied by Polish extremists'
antagonism toward Germany. Ironically, Polish Skins -
particularly those from Krakow and Nowa Huta - reportedly
purchase thier Skinhead gear from West Berlin suppliers.
"Too Much Dancing"
Some Skins in Poland apparently see an overemphasis on music
as a detrement to their cause. "Man does not dance, but acts.
There is too much dancing, too little work and struggle," one
activist is quoted as saying. His choice of words suggests a
certain debt owed by the Skinheads and their ultra-nationalist
confederates to the rules of the old Communist regime. A
Skinhead leader in Katowice has been exposed as a former agent
of the disbanded Communist secret police, fueling suspicions
by some in Poland that there may be others like him.
The attitude of Polish Skinheads toward the Catholic Church
appears ambivalent. Skins staged an anti-abortion protest in
Warsaw shouting "Catholic Polant - Sieg Heil!" But in
Przemysl, in southeastern Poland, Skinheads threatened to beat
up "any Polish priest who will dare say Mass" at a
controversial proposed memorial for German soldiers in World
War II. The threats in this case probably owe more to
anti-German hostility than antipath toward the Church. The
Pope has denounced the "incredible ferocity" of neo-Nazi
Skinheads and other hate groups as "cruel and dangerous," and
has urged poeple to reject them. (Anti-Defamation League,
59-62)

Stop Communist Tyranny in Poland!
The following leaflet was distrubuted at a demonstration outside the Polish embassy in London:
STOP COMMUNIST TYRANNY IN POLAND!
We are holding a spontaneous demonstration outside this embassy to protest against the jailing of
four activists of the Polish Nationalist organisation, the NOP (National Revival of Poland) our
sister organisation in Poland, on the 15th of April,
1996.
The NOP has faced murder, mutilation, rape and firebombs from criminal gangs of anarchists and
===============================================================================================
drugs dealers, whilst innocent NOP members are jailed for "organising reprisal attacks" -
===============================================================================================
something they are clearly not guilty of.
=========================================
==============================================================================================
The four innocent men are: Robert Musierowicz, Robert Sumcra, Piotr Wojcik and Damian Olesz.
==============================================================================================
We object to the Polish Communist regime using criminals as its foot soldiers to attack law
abiding NOP members who are then jailed on trumped up charges whilst the guilty not only remain
free, but enjoy police protection.
Until the four activists from Lodz are released, we will continue to organise activities against
the criminal and terrorist Polish Communist regime and Polish interests overseas.
Please do your bit by telling family and friends about the criminal nature of Poland's Communist
government. Write to the newspapers, your MP and MEP demanding justice in Poland! Use radio
phone-ins to highlight the Communist tyranny now unleashed against Poland's people.

Comrades in Poland Under Attack!
The Communist government in Poland is frightened by the growing success of the ITP's Polish
affiliate, the NOP (National Revival of Poland) and has unleashed a repression on our Polish
Comrades the like of which has not been seen for a long
time in Nationalist circles.
The Red government's unease has been growing since it took power. The NOP has a highly successful
monthly 32 page magazine - Szczerbiec - which is distributed in all the main shops throughout
Poland. It recently also launched a bi-weekly street paper which has taken the country by storm!
The NOP's successes have not been confined to the production and distribution of propaganda
however. The movement holds regular demonstrations (such as the vigil outside the Romanian
embassy in Warsaw on the 30 November last year to remember the brutal murder of Codreanu and the
Legionary elite by the democrats in King Carol's Romania of 1938) and marches throughout Poland
to rally the NR activists against the forces of evil which seek to subdue the Polish people. Just
before the repression began in April the NOP held a very successful mass demonstration in Warsaw.
This followed a highly publicised small demonstration in Auschwitz by a another small Nationalist
group. However, the media totally ignored the mass rally, with anti-Zionist slogans echoing
around the streets of Warsaw.
Although the media ignored the mass rally, the 'powers-that-be' clearly did not and trouble soon
started for the NOP in different areas!
In the town of Minsk-Mazowiecki a candidate for membership was hanged by anarchists! Then in the
=================================================================================================
city of Lodz a leading activist was attacked by a drugs gang and had his nose cut off! But that
================================================================================================= ========================
wasn't enough for the criminal low lifes and whilst he was in hospital they kidnapped and raped
=================================================================================================
his girlfiriend! Shortly afterwards four comrades - including the one disfigured by the
=================================================================================================
criminal scum - were arrested by the Communist police for "attempted murder" - i.e. for
=================================================================================================
organising a reprisal attack. This is something which they are not guilty of! And all the time
=================================================================================================
the drug gang receives police protection!
=========================================
=========================================
Whilst all this has been going on, the Communist state is trying to silence Szczerbiec because of
some revisionist articles it has carried.
The most recent attack was the firebombing of the family home of a leading activist in Warsaw.
What we are witnessing in Poland is an attack on our Comrades by a united front, ranging from the
powerful Communist state with its police bully boys to the lowest gregs of humanity in anarchist
and drug gangs.
We, outside Poland (wherever we are!) must now rally to help our Polish Comrades! Send letters to
Polish embassies and businesses to express your disgust at the State sponsored violence being
unleashed on our Comrades.
Produce cheap posters denouncing this Red terror. Let's face it, unless we act it's going to get
worse. A bit of activity now could save our Comrades from more death, mutilation, rape,
incarceration etc.
Hold demonstrations outside Polish official buildings. Take in letters of protest and make sure
they're signed for.
Send copies of all such letters and photos of any demonstrations/activities to us at Final
Conflict or direct to the NOP through Szczerbiec magazine: Szczerbiec, 02-600 Warszawa 13, skr.
pocz. 27.
A copy of the leaflet distributed at a demonstartion outside the Polich embassy in London is
available.

JEWS BEFORE POLES
The 'Restitution of Jewish property in Poland Bill' became law! The Polish Parliament (Sejm)
approved the proposed bill on the 31st of May. Polish citizens are still waiting for their own
reprivatisation law.
AUSCHWITZ
In America, Congressman Zimmer (who's running for Senator) is intending to propose a full debate
on the shopping centre in 'Auschwitz' town issue.
Republican Zimmer is making every effort to gain the votes of Jewish electors (who usually vote
for Democrats). He gave up after his assistants told him about the 700,000 Polish electors living
=================================================================================
in the New Jersey constituency. He decided to avoid any public debate.
======================================================================
ROME
In the Vatican, John Paul II received a delegation of Jews and Gypsies from Poland. They gave the
Pope seven volumes of "Books of the Deceased in Auschwitz", containing a "register of murdered
people in this KL (Konzentration Lager)".
Amongst those received by the Pope in the Vatican was Szymon Szurmiej, Chairman of the Commission
for Co-ordination of Jewish Organisations in Poland.
During a separate conversation with John Paul II, Szymon Szurmiej raised "several subjects the
world's and European Congresses of Jews are interested in".
After the conversation Szymon Szurmiej announced that the pope will publish a special
pronouncement about the Shopping Centre in 'Auschwitz' town.
PROTECTIVE ZONE
Marek Trombski, governor of Bielsko Province, announced that a special group would be organised.
This group will be engaged in laying down the principles of the "Protective Zone" around the
National Museum in 'Auschwitz' town. This special group will assign the borders and character of
this zone. According to one proposal, there should be a 'Park of reconciliation' around the
Museum. The Park would be supported by all the countries which took part in WW2. Another proposal
is to make this place "international" and that the President of Poland should make appeals for
world peace every year from this place.
THE REPRESSION
For a background of the repression against the NOP send off for the last NOP Info. Bulletin or
see the Final Conflict coverage. The latest Final Conflict also has a wealth of info. and ideas
on how we can help our Polish Comrades.
THE LATEST FROM THE NOP
Of the four NOP men who were arrested and jailed on remand for allegedly organising a "reprisal
================================================================================================
attack" on the criminal drugs/anarchist gang which disfigured one of their number and then raped
================================================================================================
his girlfriend, two are now out on bail.
========================================
At a preliminary court hearing to see if the two members still held on remand should remain in
prison until the full court hearing, the prosecution had to explain why there had been a
demonstration outside the Polish embassy in Dublin protesting against the repression against the
NOP.
This clearly shows that the demonstrations organised are having the desired effect! It is
therefore vital to ensure as many embassies as possible are targeted throughout Europe.
There is a glimmer of hope for the four accused in that the original judge who would certainly
===============================================================================================
have found them guilty and sentenced them to aeons in jail regardless of the truth, has been
===============================================================================================
replaced by a more "liberal" judge who just may listen to the facts of the case!
================================================================================
INTERNATIONAL HELP
A number of magazines and journals have helped the NOP by publicising what's going on in Poland.
So far the magazines that have helped are: England: Final Conflict, National Freedom. # USA: The
Nationalist Times. # Romania: Gazeta De Vest. # The Netherlands: De Revolutionaire Nationalist. #
Italy: Foglio di Lotta. # Portugal: Justica & Liberdade. And more journals are offering help all
the time! If you are in touch with a Nationalist journal then please ask them to publicise the
NOP's situation. This campaign needs to reach as many people as possible if the NOP are to
survive the cruel blows of the Polish State and its criminal cohorts.
NOP SOLIDARITY CAMPAIGN
A sticker has been issued by the "NOP Solidarity Campaign" which features the names of the four
innocent men who may face long jail terms. They are peel-back, approx. 7cm x 9cm and are red &
white, with the NOP symbol. These are available from: The NOP Solidarity Campaign, BCM ITP,
London, WC1N 3XX, England; or: The NOP Solidarity Campaign, PB 7, Lennik, 1750, Belgium. They
cost £2/$4 each inc. p&p. ( All money goes to the NOP to help with legal costs etc.) Cheques
(in £ only) to the English address to "Iron Guard". Cheques (in BEF only) to the Belgian address
to "Vercruysse D.".
The NOP Information Bulletin is published when necessary. To subscribe for 5 issues send £1.50
to: The Secretary, BCM ITP, London, WC1N 3XX, England. Cheques to "TPFF". This helps defray
postage costs etc. Extra donations are more than welcome.

Funny, I thought the article is about commies under attack - that's how I
understand references to "comrades". On the other hand, why not,
both commies and fashists derive from the same totalitarian ideology,
nationalist or not, "tovarisch" or comrade is the proper word for the
scum. The article states that the attacks on the comrades in skins are
almost unprecedented ("the like of which has not been seen for a long time
in Nationalistic circles") - the author probably refers to the
bashing that Moczar and other Nationalistic circles' prominents
received from Gomulka in late 60s. Well, just like those old grapes,
the present conflict is just a family affair and should be dealt with
internally...
