Cherie Blair embraces former IRA commander Martin McGuinness at funeral of Tony Benn
- Deputy First Minister attended with Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams
- Mr Adams was also at funeral and called Tony Benn 'a friend of Ireland'
- Mrs Blair's husband once admitted he liked both 'more than I should have'
- The Queen famously shook Mr McGuinness' hand two years ago and is set to invite him to state dinner at Windsor
The human rights QC smiled and embraced Northern Ireland's deputy First Minister as they filed out of St Margaret's Church, Westminster this afternoon.
Public figures had been paying their last respects to Mr Benn, who served as a Labour MP for more than 50 years and died two weeks ago at 88.
Mr McGuinness attended the service with Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams, who Tony Blair admitted in his memoirs he liked 'more than I should have'.

Mrs Blair and her husband got to know Mr McGuinness and Mr Adams during the peace process.
'Whether you like them or not, and no matter how strongly you disapprove of their past actions, they had courage in abundance,' Mr Blair wrote when he left power.
Cherie Blair's warmth towards the Northern Irish politician came two years after the Queen shook his hand.
The momentous act came 33 years after her cousin, Lord Mountbatten of Burma, was murdered by an IRA bomb as he holidayed with his family.
The decision to shake hands with a former IRA commander was an astonishing act of forgiveness by the 86-year-old monarch who adored her ‘Uncle Dickie’.
Her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, a nephew of Lord Mountbatten, also offered his hand even though Philip was exceptionally close to his uncle and took news of his murder in 1979 hard.

Colleagues: Mr McGuinness was at the funeral
with Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams, who described Tony Benn as a
'friend of Ireland'
Message: Gerry Adams tweeted to his 45,000 followers that he was off to London for today's funeral
It also emerged that he may be travelling to Windsor Castle next month for a state dinner hosted by Her Majesty.
Mr McGuinness admitted his IRA past to the Saville Inquiry in 1998, but has always insisted he never killed anyone – claims that have been repeatedly questioned by his critics.
He joined the Provisional IRA as a teenager and quickly rose up the ranks. By 1971, aged 21, he was second in command of the IRA in Derry.
He held that position at the time of Bloody Sunday, when 14 civil rights protesters were killed by British paratroopers in the city.

During the Saville Inquiry into the events of that day, Paddy Ward claimed McGuinness had personally handed him bomb parts, an allegation McGuinness claimed was 'fantasy'.
In 1973, he was convicted by Ireland's Special Criminal Court, after being caught with a car loaded with explosives and ammunition. He refused to recognise the court, and was sentenced to six months imprisonment.
However, he has never denied his role in the IRA, saying in September last year: ‘I didn’t say I never fired a gun - I was in the IRA. There were battles on the streets of Derry.'

He claims he left the Provisionals in 1974 to pursue a career in politics - five years before the IRA assassinated Lord Mountbatten.

It's in a shocking state. After 14 years of Griffin there's nothing left from which to rebuild.
With Euro elections around the corner he's dropped the Sikhs and Hindus and started bleating to a Sephardic princess called Gomez about Coudenhove-Kalergi et al.
We translated Coudenhove-Kalergi's book (Practical Idealism) into English years ago, at the old Northwest Nationalists Online and Griffin banned anyone who came near that forum to read it.

Bishop Williamson's latest on the religion of Holohoax....
29 March 2014:
SUBSTITUTE RELIGION
Two months ago a self-declared atheist celebrated in France his 85th birthday, to whom all theists of the true religion owe a serious debt of thanks, because in today’s world of lies Professor Robert Faurisson has been a powerful defender of truth. I for one might wish that many more believers in the true God would have his intelligence and honesty in discerning the truth, and his courage to tell it.
For instance, whether or not it is a historical fact that there were six million victims of gassing in gas chambers of the Third Reich, Prof. Faurisson insists on treating it as a historical question to be settled by the facts and scientific evidence, and not by emotion and legislation – what could be more reasonable ? And yet on this particular question a mass of our contemporaries will not listen to reason. Are their minds still functioning ? Our warm gratitude goes to the Professor for bringing an excellent and scholarly mind to bear on a historical question as a question of history and not of something else.
Something else ? Again, whether or not the Six Million are a historical reality, it is the Professor who states that they have in any case acquired the status of a secular religion. Does it take a supposedly irreligious man to discern what serves as the main religion of our times ? I might wish a few more Catholics would have the gumption to see and say what is today’s main rival to their true religion. Here is a very brief overview of an article written on the subject in 2008 by Professor Faurisson:--
The Six Million constitute a lay religion with its own dogma, commandments, decrees, prophets, high priests and Saints: St Anne (Frank), St Simon (Wiesenthal), St Elie (Wiesel). It has its holy places, its rituals and its pilgrimages. It has its temples and its relics (bars of soap, piles of shoes, etc.), its martyrs, heroes, miracles and miraculous survivors (millions of them), its golden legend and its righteous people. Auschwitz is its Golgotha, Hitler is its Satan. It dictates its law to the nations. Its heart beats in Jerusalem, at the Yad Veshem monument.
It is a new religion that has enjoyed a meteoric growth since World War II. It has conquered the West and is setting out to conquer the world. Whereas the progress of scientific thinking in our consumer society has weakened the grip of all the classic religions by making people more and more sceptical as to the truth of religion’s stories and the promises religion holds out, the new religion prospers to the point that anybody caught denying its basic dogma is branded as a “Revisionist”, is cast out of the community, and is treated like only heretics used to be treated. It is in effect a religion, and it is today a major instrument, and, one might say, the popular religion of the godless New World Order.
The Professor argues that this success can be attributed to its resorting to the consumer society’s own techniques of advertising and selling. Here I think he does lack the religious perspective. Surely the apostasy of the once Christian nations is the main explanation. Christ is God. When God is pushed out, he leaves behind him a huge void which must be filled by something. The promoters of the new religion have by their history a matchless instinct for the fabrication of substitute religions. But be that as it may, I would invite believers to pray for the unbelieving Professor so that he may collect the divine reward which, humanly seen, he deserves for the heroic services which he has rendered to the truth.
Kyrie eleison.

Cheers, JiB.
Bishop Williamson has been under enormous pressure since that Swedish TV crew set him up and dropped him in it.
The SSPX caved in to outside pressure and tried to isolate him. But that wasn't nearly enough for the eternal enemy, and so, in his mid 70s, he was given notice to vacate his SSPX quarters in Wimbledon and told to sling his hook!
The enemy thought they had the wily old heretic by the balls, but they misjudged his resolve and also that of his supporters, who still believe in the original purpose of the SSPX: an organisation which is now collapsing in on itself due to the cowardice of its leader.
Thanks to the help he's received along with Williams's own life's savings, he's finally managed to purchase a property of his own and is now safe and secure.
Let's hope that, unlike Griffin, Williamson (and Faurisson and Zundel) is able to 'live long and prosper'....
Take care.

England’s Levellers: The World’s First Libertarian Movement.
=================================
The author of that article, Murray Rothbard, was a parasitic Jew as was his teacher Ludwig Von Mises, who incidentally, was friend and collaborator with a certain Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi; both being employed by the Rockefeller Foundation.
All three (Mises, Coudenhove-Kalergi, and Rothbard) were followers of Spinoza. Spinoza was a pupil of Menasseh ben Israel who according to Jewish historian Heinrich Graetz "won England for the Jews" when in 1665, he persuaded Cromwell to let the tribe back into England.
In his book Jews and Modern Capitalism Werner Sombart had something interesting to say about ''The Levellers who called themselves Jews''....
Sombart writes:
Leading men in England like Oliver Cromwell built up their religious views on the Old Testament, and Cromwell himself dreamed of a reconciliation between the Old and the New Testaments, and of a confederation between the Chosen People of God and the Puritan English.
A Puritan preacher of the day, Nathaniel Holmes by name, wished for nothing better than, in accordance with the letter of the prophetic message, to become a servant of God’s people and to serve them on bended knee. Public life became Hebraic in tone no less than the sermons in churches. And if only speeches in Parliament had been in Hebrew, you might have believed yourself in Palestine.
The “Levellers,” who called themselves “Jews” (in opposition to their opponents whom they termed “Amalekites”), advocated the adoption of the Torah as the norm of English legislation.
Cromwell’s officers suggested to him to appoint seventy members of his Privy Council according to the number of the members of the Synhedrin. To the Parliament of 1653 General Thomas Harrison, the Anabaptist, was returned, and he and his party clamoured for the introduction of the Mosaic legislation into England. In 1649 it was moved in the House of Commons that the Lord’s Day should be observed on Saturday instead of on Sunday. On the banners of the victorious Puritans was inscribed “The Lion of Judah"...
Source: http://socserv2.socsci.mcmaster.ca/econ/ugcm/3ll3/sombart/jews.pdf
Libertarians are not ''Nationalists'' nor were the Levellers. They considered themselves ''Jews''!
Rothbard and Mises were proponents of what Adam Smith termed ''The Vile Maxim''...All for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind.
The above date of 1665 should be 1656.
