It is good practice to far-right organizations to tears with some regularity. For example, recently found another rift within the National Alliance. An active group of members from Zeeland took off and then founded a new club, the "Teutonic Brothers".
The first thing you notice about Dietse Comrades is the family character. The board consists of three persons: The Zeeland Flanders brothers Wijnand de Putter (Wijnand Jan, 1970) en Marcel de Putter (Adriaan widespread, 1980) and Magda Jansen van Rosendaal (Magdalena Neeltje, 1972), the wife of Wijnand de Putter. Fellows also put in that regard continue a good tradition: Janmaat led the Centre Democrats with his girlfriend (later wife) Wil Schuurman and NCE chairman Constant Kusters put this spring include girlfriend (and mother of his child) in a variety of lists of candidates. In the battlefield of quarrels and settlements shows that in extreme-right party landscape often wise just to trust your own family. Or that in this case also is so, is the question. Family Putter has exactly regularly surprises.
The first period of their extreme right-wing interest seemed to be in the case of the Goldfinch Brothers go to typical keyboard warriors. On the Internet, were put down by Marcel all kinds of Nazi hate texts, but street activism and membership of an organization did not directly addressed. A skinhead concert or gabber party only Marcel was the door still able to get out.
The visible political activity of the family began in 2002, the day after the assassination of Pim Fortuyn. That activity had directly seen the radical interest: Marcel de Putter made the long journey from Zeeland to Harderwijk to join in a controversial demonstration of the Dutch People's Union. This party forced this demonstration in court, After an earlier ban. In the restive Netherlands just after the murder of Fortuyn, saw the Mayor of Harderwijk (where Fortuyn's killer lived) the protesters rather than go out. And so the Harderwijkers. The protesters were massively booed and -gescholden.
That brought Marcel de Putter, however, anything but repent. He and brother Wijnand then chose a more moderate party than the NCE: De Nieuwe Nationale Partij (NNP). Within the party they make a meteoric career. In maart 2003 They walked for the first time in a demonstration of this party. Three months later held a regional meeting in the house of De Putter, where Wijnand was appointed division president of Zeeland.
At that time appeared the political duplicity of the two existing. Officially, they were the actual members of the NNP, a far-right party with an emphasis on so-called "People's Nationalism '. Succinctly wanted this party a blank Netherlands, foreign taint. In privé- and became friends with the brothers, however Putter openly raved by Nazism and related paraphernalia. That is a duplicitous attitude that maintain the brothers to the present day.
The two brothers were, After obtaining these executive positions for the NNP, quickly familiar faces within the extreme right. Partly because they were often present with extreme right-wing activities. In addition, the home of Wijnand de Putter and Magda Jansen van Rosendaal in Sluiskil a kind of open house for those gatherings of all kinds.
To begin with, the operations: The second NNP action where Marcel de Putter showed his face was an attempted demonstration in Amsterdam in the summer of 2003. The NNP wanted to demonstrate that day along with the New Right of Michiel Smit and called to gather at a station in East Amsterdam. Marcel de Putter arrived there first. He was not recognized by a group of anti-fascists who were there at that time also gathered for a counter-demonstration. Putter then calmly walked out of the station. For unknown reason then spread it by GSM nonsense story that the protesters were armed with dogs and chains, allowing other demonstrators from the NNP and the New Right not dare to come to the station. Thus, the extreme right action was childishly simple prevention.
Two months later, the two sides did another attempt to demonstrate in Amsterdam. This time there were two brothers De Putter, but they were not even in Amsterdam. Because there riots had broken out at the assembly point to the right-wing extremists had to leave the city by order of the police.
These joint activities of the NNP and the New Right was reason to start merger talks. After some discussion, however, it failed dramatically: Both sides were further apart. However, negotiations and joint actions generated so much arguing that the NNP subsequently collapsed. The brothers Putter left the NNP and stepped over to the NNP torn National Alliance (NA).
Also at this party they were active, established their own department in Zeeland, Wijnand which was again president. In 2005 joined Wijnand de Putter even joined the national board of the party. Brother Marcel was secretary, vice president and action leader of the Zeeland circle.
For the NA was marched in demonstrations and gefolderd in their region. When AFTER the brothers, however, were known mainly due to the aforementioned opening of the house of Wijnand de Putter. In the garden was from the summer of 2004 one after the other beer- and meat topped party meeting organized.
The active solidarity and arrangement of the brothers De Putter seemed a long collaboration between NA and guarantee them. Partijprominent Virginia Kapic, always good for derailing quarrels, knew that trend, however, interrupt rough. A hefty discussion in the party forum between some members, waaronder Marcel de Putter, Kapic was terminated by its function as a forum administrator in a typical way: they threw all discussants definitively on the forum. For the brothers De Putter was the reason for the NA in April 2006 leave. Then they decided to focus on the "Dietse Comrades". Another popular nationalist organization, but one that is more pronounced than the NA on National Socialism. Negatively than. In an explanation of the organization's Internet site can read:
During activities, it is forbidden to wear National Socialist symbols. The Celtic Cross is permitted.
That is in line with the usual presentation of the brothers De Putter. Also at the NA orientated brothers Putter mainly on conservative and nationalistic folk themes. However, the blood is thicker than water and gave the brothers behind the scenes regularly demonstrate their Nazi affiliations. Something in the NA otherwise all the space and understanding existed. These "moderate" public presentation and a hidden Nazi sympathy for committed after the switch to the Dietse Comrades.
Wijnand de Putter pleaded in his NA-time example for rehabilitation of NSB leader Anton Mussert. Marcel too late occasionally go on the Internet. So he posted in 2001 al teksten als “zyklon makes our wishes true”. But besides such revealing internet postings Marcel and Wijnand are also active in the neo-Nazi organization Blood & Honour. In 2003 Marcel dived there for the first visible as a member of the security at a B&H-concert, a position he would play more often in the years thereafter.
Last summer was Blood & Honour Netherlands organize a meeting in the area of Wijnand de Putter. To enhance the atmosphere were banners of B&H hung next to a swastika flag. Furthermore, a group photo was taken where attendees brought the Hitler salute. When this picture came out, he was, among other things shown in a Omroep Zeeland broadcast about a demonstration organized by De Putter. Wijnand de Putter and reacted as if stung by wasp:
You showed a picture with a group of people with the right arm and a swastika on the tree. This photo dates from last year and is taken at a braai.
The group that organized the braai has approached me for the location, no more, no less.
Very sorry that you had to show this in your broadcast, because it generates a very negative image, this I have also told after our interview. Unfortunately I could not travel to the studio had otherwise I can help the whole of the world.
An equally typical as eloquent response. Putter pretending as innocent saloon owner operated, but forgets to mention that he and brother Marcel in Blood & Honour-shirt also in the photo are the right arm. And when his wife, child and dog are recorded on the group.
Given the residential area (Zeeland Flanders) it is predictable that the Putters their gaze also focus on Belgium. From the beginning of their political activities 2002 they regularly visit the Iron Pilgrimage (later IJzerwake). In 2005 Wijnand de Putter may even NA-flag contribute to the "flag parade", a year later Marcel de Putter does this same with the flag of the newly founded "Dietse Comrades".
Also Antwerp is visited regularly to encounter friendly organizations and politically minded.
