Madrid student faces prosecution for defending the heroic Blue Division

Spanish racial nationalism – past and present – has received ‘viral’ attention online following a controversial speech by young Falangist activist Isabel Peralta, who now faces charges from Madrid prosecutors who are responding to pressure from the usual suspects.

Isabel Peralta’s speech, widely shared online and reported by the mainstream media, was part of a rally of 300 Spanish nationalists in central Madrid on February 13th, commemorating the anniversary of the Battle of Krasny Bor, near Leningrad in February 1943.

During this battle the Division Azul (Blue Division) – comprising Spanish volunteers dedicated to the struggle against Bolshevism – fought a heroic action against Stalin’s Red Army hordes. Though they incurred heavy casualties – more than 70% of their troops killed, wounded or captured – the Blue Division and their comrades from the 4th SS Polizei Panzergrenadier Division turned back the Soviet advance.

Adolf Hitler personally designed the Blue Division Medal following the noble sacrifice of the Spanish volunteers at Krasny Bor.

A portrait of martyred Falangist leader José Antonio Primo de Rivera, with a medal issued to international volunteers including the Condor Legion who helped defeat communism in Spain after his death. Two years after this Civil War victory, the Division Azul honourably defended Germany in return, fighting in horrific conditions on the Eastern Front.

About 20% of the first Blue Division volunteers were students, mainly supporters of Falangism, the radical wing of Spanish nationalism associated with José Antonio Primo de Rivera until his capture and execution by communist republicans in November 1936 during the early stages of the Civil War.

Paying tribute to the Blue Division, Isabel Peralta said: “It is our supreme obligation to fight for Spain, to fight for Europe, now weak and liquidated by the enemy. The enemy is always going to be the same, although with different masks.”

During 2021 Isabel Peralta has become the brightest star of radical racial nationalism. She is an organiser for the new activist group Bastión Frontal and previously for the women’s section of La Falange, a party founded in 1999 whose ideological origins are in the Falange Española de las JONS, the party that upheld José Antonio’s political legacy as the voice of radical nationalism during the Franco years.

However there were very different reactionary elements in and around Franco’s government who took an implicitly anti-German stance.

Falangists were undermined by an extraordinary conspiracy masterminded by British intelligence via an international gangster of Majorcan Jewish origin – Juan March.

In Issue 58 of H&D, published in 2014, our assistant editor Peter Rushton wrote a detailed article about this operation – codenamed Goldeneye – in which the “Cavalry of St George” – massive quantities of gold – were deployed to keep Spain out of the Second World War.

Juan March, Jewish-Majorcan gangster and British agent in Franco’s Spain

The strange story of Juan March was first brought to Peter Rushton’s attention almost thirty years ago by an elderly Anglo-Spanish couple who attanded reunion dinners of the Friends of Oswald Mosley in London. He was later able to document the story in extensive research at the UK National Archives.

In the 1990s Peter Rushton was one of several H&D readers who represented John Tyndall’s British National Party at annual November 20th rallies commemorating José Antonio, both in Central Madrid and at the Valle de los Caidos mausoleum.

As part of these events Mr Rushton visited a private Division Azul museum in central Madrid, as well as the offices of Pedro Varela’s CEDADE and the Alianza por la Unidad Nacional (AUN). Since that time, the great heritage of Spanish nationalism seemed to have been repressed by leftwing Spanish governments, including the disgraceful disinterring of Gen. Franco from his tomb at the Valle de los Caidos. However the latest Madrid demonstrations and the widely publicised speech of Isabel Peralta mark the movement’s revival and the first signs of a new dawn for Spain.

In November 2021 Isabel was interviewed on one of Spain’s leading political television programmes, leading to a furious reaction from ‘anti-fascists’ and Zionist lobbyists who objected to this exceptionally intelligent and attractive ‘fascist’ being given a nationwide media platform.

H&D will report further during the coming months on developments in the case of Isabel Peralta and her fight for real history.
