FASCISM IN BRITAIN A History, 1918-1985, by Richard Thurlow, published by Basil Blackwell, Oxford, (February 1987). 317 pages. Index. Illustrated.

The Acknowledgements to this book includes Gerry Gable and Searchlight.

Page 306: of Searchlight, Thurlow effuses: “This is the most interesting intelligence source for post-1945 British fascism. Gerry Gable is particularly keen that more academics should be made aware of his resources.”

One would imagine that goy historian and philo-Semitic creep Thurlow has got to be joking. Unfortunately, this is not the case, and this unconditional endorsement illustrates too well the extent to which this filthy cabal of Aryan-hating Jewish “anti-fascists” and goy fellow travellers has subverted academia, not only in Britain but throughout the Western world.

[BBIP, 1991 - where this book is listed erroneously as Fascism in Britain, 1918-86.]

Nazi hunters send Hurd new war crime dossier, by Frank Thompson, published in the Daily Mail October 13, 1987, page 15.

Gable claimed to have made “‘a breakthrough’ after weeks in Moscow, and Riga in Latvia, examining official files about Paul Reinhards, a leading figure in London’s Latvian community.” It remains to be seen if this breakthrough involved forging documents himself or simply endorsing Soviet forgeries; whatever, these allegations were thoroughly investigated, and discredited, by judicial experts of unimpeachable integrity, something clearly Gable has never been.


War crimes action, published in the Morning Star, October 13, 1987, page 1.

Searchlight and the UJS said to be organising a lobby of Parliament on November 25 against “the murderers in our midst.”


Relentless searchlight on hunting the hated, article/interview by David Winner, published in the Jewish Chronicle, October 23, 1987, page 10.

A real embarrassment to Gable, this. Repeats the rubbish about the Notting Hill bomb plot, among other things. This is a two part article; the other “anti-fascist” featured here is a shabbos goy, a certain Mrs Klarsfeld.


Put war criminals on trial, by Marilyn Honigman, published in the Jewish Chronicle, November 6, 1987, page 30.

Report of a campaign to hound old men, alleged war criminals. Aryan ones, of course. This campaign was run by Searchlight/Union of Jewish Students. “The heads of the American French and Israeli legal services departments agree the Soviet government has never produced forged documents in these cases”, says Gable. Who said anything about the Soviets, Gerry. Didn’t you go to Riga to fish out some documents? (See entry for Daily Mail, October 13, 1987).
