A FORGOTTEN
BRITISH HOLOCAUST
Every January 27th,
the 'leaders' of our government and our multi-faith society queue
up in droves to bewail the so-called and much doubted Holocaust. It is
held on that day as that is the day in 1945 when the Red Army
'liberated' the industrial complex of Auschwitz, sealed the place off
and then reopened it as a museum. Whether this Holocaust happened is a
matter of great debate and the liberal-democratic answer in most
countries is just to pass a law, usually carrying heavy penalties for
even discussing the matter!
However, a real Holocaust DID take place in the
Second World War and it is highlighted
in a recent book "Surviving the Sword" by Brian
MacArthur (Time-Warner Books). The book is a gruelling record of
the fate of the FEPOWS (Far Eastern Prisoners of War), most
of them of British and Australian origin. There treatment
after capture by the Japanese is rarely spoken of and in fact in the
Official History of the Second World War gets a
miserly few pages as opposed to chapters on the Jewish Holocaust.
Japan took 132,142 Allied prisoners of whom around
over 30% persihed due to the ghastly treatment meted out to them
by their Japanese captors.
The Japanese at that time were fighting in their view a "racial" war of
Yellow against White and treated the prisoners accordingly. The book is
full of stories of heroism and misery, sacrifice and cruelty and
should be read by every patriot as a memory to all those British and
Australian soldiers, many of whom never survived the 1600 days of
torture, calculated starvation and murder at the hands of the
Japanese. On the 30th May, the FEPOW Association was
wound up as most of the survivors had become to old and frail to attend
the once a year ceremony at St.Martins-in-the-Fields, London.
Did Blair and his cronies attend? Were there masses of weeping
prelates present bewailing the cruelty of war? No! They save all
that for January 27th!
MacArthur's book should be read by every British patriot, especially
our young people as a tribute and an understanding of what European
soldiers went through in the Far East. We warn you now it makes grisly
reading. No memorial stands to them as opposed to every city in Britain
having its Mandela Square, Gardens or whatever. Who knows of the
Railway of Death or Haraku Island death camp?
In the words of the FEPOW's own prayer of rememberance:-
"The price
that was paid - we will always remember - every day, every month not
just in November"
The British People's Party salutes these forgotten heroes....
