Links Between the Neo-Nazis and the PLO
Publications both in Israel and abroad have established that ties have existed between the PLO and various neo-Nazi groups since the 1960s when ex-SS officers found asylum in Arab countries provided advice and guidance to the budding PLO.
In April 1969, a world conference of neo-Nazi Organizations, on which about 100 delegates from Europe and Latin America participated was held in Barcelona, at which an Algerian delegate proposed a resolution condemning Zionist "imperialism" and succeeded in obtaining a promise from the neo-Nazi organizations of assistance in both manpower and arms for the PLO. The first manifestation of this assistance was the recruitment of an ex-SS officer to command a PFLP training camp at Basra in southern Iraq. In September 1969 Jean Tireault, secretary of the neo-Nazi movement in Brussels, was arrested on suspicion of maintaining contacts with PLO members who had carried out a terrorist attack in Belgium.
In 1970 a complex network of financial cooperation between neo-Nazi organizations and the PLO was uncovered, following the appearance of François Genoud, a Swiss banker who was the director of the Arab Bank in Geneva, as an observer of a PLO terrorist who had attacked an El Al plane at Zurich in February 1969. Genoud...of being connected with the 'Spider' currency smuggling network, which was regarded as responsible for the transfer to Swiss Bank vaults of the booty of Nazi thefts and robberies.
On 1973 a number of European newspapers revealed that two well-known neo-Nazis, the Belgian Karl van de Put and the German Johan Schuller, had acted as recruiting agents for Fatah.
Shortly before the October 1973 Yom Kippur war, the German neo-Nazi newspaper 'Nationalist and Soldiers' Chronicle' offered its readers a trip to the Middle East to learn about the Palestinian struggle. The notice stated that money was no problem, and that what was important was courage and friendship. At the same time Austrian police arrested the Austian neo-Nazi leader Herald Engelke, after his party had given asylum and assistance to PLO members who had been smuggled into Austria using forged Israeli passports in order carry out acts of terror there.
In January 1978 the general prosecutor of the West German Supreme Court at Karlsruhe opened an investigation into links between the neo-Nazi organizations and the PLO, following the arrest of 4 Germans who were members of the Adolf Hitler Free Korps - which had been engaged in arms-running from Arab countries on behalf of the PLO.
For the past few years, the various PLO factions have been showing their appreciation for the help which they have received from the neo-Nazis in Europe by providing them with financial assistance and training at PLO camps. For example, the West German student Gundolf Keller, a member of the neo-Nazi Military Sports Club who was killed in September 1980 when an explosive charge went off at the Munich Beer Festival, had undergone military training at a PLO camp in southern Lebanon. Karl Heinz Hoffman who heads this group, has also spent some in Beirut for "Business purposes." The exact nature of his business was later revealed in conversations which were monitored by German security forces in which he told his Palestinian friends that
he was acting in the way Adolf Hitler would have acted had he still been alive.
Further details of neo-Nazi-PLO cooperation was revealed on 30 January 1981, during the interrogation of Adv. Manfred Roeder, one of the leaders of the West German neo-Nazi movement.</blockquote>

'We Are Anti-Israeli, Not Anti-Jewish"
This distinction has often been claimed by PLO spokesmen.
However, since the late 1960s, the PLO has maintained contact with neo-Nazi and other extremist right-wing groups, providing training, smuggling arms, and distributing propaganda...
Despite the PLO's efforts to appear to be "only anti-Zionist, and not anti-Jewish, it has manifested its hatred for Jews time and again through its activities and propaganda. -
PLO hijacker Lila Khaled stated in her autobiography:
"At first I admired Hitler because I thought he was the enemy of the Jews."
"Carry the warfare of the Palestinians to Europe." -
This was the resolution of a special conference Al-Fatah held in Beirut on August 14 , 1981 with Arafat in the chair. It was decided to cooperate with underground organizations in Europe, as well as to launch attacks against Jewish institutions (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, August 3, 1981, in a report of the attack on the synagogue in Vienna on the same date). -
'''The Barcelona conference and beyond.''' -
A world conference of neo-Nazi organizations was held in Barcelona in April 2, 1969 with the participation of 100 delegates from Europe and Latin America, including two Fatah recruiters. -
It adopted a resolution to assist the PLO in every way possible. -
The first manifestation of this help was the recruitment of a former SS officer to command a PLO training camp at Basra, in Lebanon. In September of the same year, Jean Tireault, secretary of the neo-Nazi movement was arrested in Brussels in connection with PLO terrorists acts in Belgium. -
At another meeting held in Paris, March 28 1970, Jean Robert Debbaudt, a Belgian ex- officer in Hitler's Waffen SS, leader of the neo-Nazi rexist Party, offered to place his group at the service of the PLO. -
In Munich on September 16, 1972, 10 days after the mas- sacre of the Israeli athelets, a Nazi fascist rally, "the First National European Congress of Youth," was held. The 600 delegates cheered Black September to the rafters. -
Delegates also extolled Sirhan Sirhan, the Palestinian who killed Senator Robert Kennedy. -
The Swiss director of the Arab Bank in Geneva, Francois Genoud, was suspected of being connected with the "Spider " network responsible for the transfer of Nazi booty to Swiss bank vaults. His appearance at the trial of El Al plane hijackers in Zurich in 1970 uncovered the complex financial cooperation between the neo-Nazis and the PLO. -
The public prosecutor in Karlsruh, West Germany, investigated a case of arms smuggling to Europe from Arab countries through a PLO affiliate. Three of those arrested were members of the " Adolf Hitler Free Corps" (January 1978). -
Belgian Minister of Justice Jean Gol stated that neo-Nazi terrorist Paul Leroy, arrested in early May 1982, belonged to the extreme right-wing Whersport-sgruppe of Karl-Heinz Hoffman, who was charged with the terrorist explosion at the Munich Oktoberfest (September 28, 1980). -
Leroy and other members had trained at the PLO's Bir Hassan camp in Lebanon. -
Hoffman himself told Bild am Sonntag he visited Beirut in July 1980 in connection with supplies to the PLO. -
A director of the West German Anti-Crime Bureau stated in a seminar held in Rome (February 1982) that neo-Nazis were being helped and financed by PLO. -
According to FBI reports American neo-Nazis (led by Harold Covington) and Fatah personmel trained together in a camp in North Carolina (Ma'ariv, August 7, 1981). -
The Austrian Police arrested a neo-Nazi leader, Herald Angelke, for giving shelter to PLO members who had infiltrated into Austria with forged passports (October 1973). -
Security sources in Bonn reported that Otto Albrecht, a neo-Nazi, arrested in West Germany in possession of arms and PLO identity papers, had recruited Germans for training in PLO camps in Lebanon. -
L'oeuvre Francaise , an extreme right - wing group operating in France, agreed to carry out ter- rorist operations at the PLO's request as early as 1977. -
French police in August 1977 arrested a Palestinian terrorist and two extreme right-wing Italians who had trained in Lebanon. -
The Los Angeles Herald Examiner reported on October 8, 1980:
<i>"agents of the PLO are rushing recruits who had been sent for training in the Middle East to French and German neo-Nazi units."</i></small></ref>
