Did NZ lose its innocence on 15th
March 2019? No, it lost it in 1991 when it followed the UN and US into the
First Gulf War. About the same time Samuel Huntington published The Clash of Civilisations warning of
the threat of Islam to Western Civilisation. 30 years of Islamophobia and the
never-ending war on terror what do you get? Fascism defending Western
capitalist "civilisation" from peaceful Muslims.
The
bourgeois blinkered media commentary focuses on the ‘lone wolf’ theory to avoid
confronting the reality of the rise of fascism reaching ‘downunder’. The spies
weren’t doing their job, our friendly gun laws need a rebore, and give the cops
guns. Let’s all hold hands and pray to our diverse gods to keep the evil at
bay. But white supremacists are fascists and there is no way the NZ state is
going to stop them when global capitalism is destroying the world to defend its
barbaric 'civilisation' from 'radical Islam'.
Don't expect the state, even if
'warned', to act against white supremacists. The US surveillance state with its
domestic war on terror screams Islamic terror yet 70% of mass killings are done
by white supremacists. The cops enforce the white 'civilisation' that was
imposed on the rest of the world for centuries, namely capitalism imperialist
exploitation and oppression. Now that that system is on its last legs the
defenders of that 'civilisation' are the fascists who blame the loss of white
rule heritage on its historic victims and target those who advance the cause of
the victims.
The
Muslims they target are the victims of centuries of Western 'white'
'civilisation'. From the Crusades to the genocide of Syrian people in an 8-year
war, it is the victims who are standing up and bringing their 'justice' back to
the home countries. The NZ neo-colonial state is part of that story of conquest
and oppression 'downunder'. Its racist oppression is still rampant in Australia
and NZ. So, what is new? How is the Christchurch attack different from
Parihaka?
Since
the fascists are defending their mythology of white civilisation they will
never be stopped by the modern version of the colonial bosses' state. We have
to stop them by smashing them before they seize power. What this means is
no-platform for fascists, and smash them in the streets before they can
organise a reactionary social movement to wipe out humanity. It is a warning
siren to us all that the fascists struck in Christchurch on the same day as the
global Students 'fight for life'.
