Michael Alexander Bos (1967) almost ten years in the extreme right flank of Dutch politics. He began his career with the CD and the CP'86 and today is mainly concerned with the mapping of his political opponents.
In 1989 Michael Wood is a member of the CD van Janmaat. He cites two co-CD'ers (Constant Kusters and John Campfort) about to join with him in the CP'86. After two years of full membership in Forest 1991 really active for this party. The CP'86 then has just made a major shift to the right of the accession of the Netherlands Youth Front, led by Stewart Mordaunt. With him comes a large group of young people within the party.
Michael Forest beats with Constant Kusters organizing. They are both present at the creation of the circle of the party Nijmegen (noot 1) and then focus in May 1991 Choose whichever circle Arnhem. Michael Forest is chairman and secretary Constant Kusters.
The circle grows Arnhem led by Kusters and Forests as carbon and in the early nineties, a stronghold of activity. One leaflet action after another takes place and further acts of violence against people regularly (linkse) opponents. In particular, the so-called "Nationalist Youth Treffen’ twice resulted in violence and arrests.
In 1992 was an attempt by about sixty-right extremist youth undertaken to attack a Multicultural Festival. Several attendees were arrested for illegal possession of weapons. A year later the police arrest several attendees of the Youth Treffen because bringing the Hitler salute and harassment of a black man. Several members of the circle come into contact with the law for assault and prohibited (fire)possession of weapons.
Despite all this, the circle is going smoothly until the elections of 1994. That year gain the right-wing parties 88 City Council seats and three parliamentary seats. Despite high expectations, the outcome in Arnhem disappointing and only know the CD to win a seat. This is occupied by heroin dealer Henny Selhorst. The leader of the CP'86, Constant Kusters, can be disappointment obviously difficult to handle and decides to go on an offer to become assistant fraction of the CD'er Selhorst. Since the CD by the CP'86 seen as a party of traitors and semi-soft Selhorst additionally a known dealer in Arnhem, Kusters makes this so unpopular that he is thrown out of the CP'86. Incidentally Kusters leave after a short while the CD, because of the drugs activities Selhorst and directs the Nazi Youth Front Netherlands '94 on.
After this seems Michael Forest in the circle Arnhem equally stand for only, but he gets help from Marcel Rueter, who flatly has joined the CP'86. They both build from the circle and begin the local paper 'Arnhem's Glorie'. The circuit is after the collapse of the circle Nijmegen incidentally renamed circle Gelderland. At district meetings, which are usually held at Michael Forest, are typically about 15 active members present.
In 1994 Michael Forest begins the Student Front Nijmegen. Forest presents it as an independent student-party consulting firm that advises only to contact, or to join the CP'86. This organization undertakes various folder- and paste operations in Nijmegen. The pamphlets treat typical CP'86 themes: against multiculturalism, Anti-GL and anti-Islam.
There may be more people involved (been?) at the SFN, but Michael Forest is the driving force. At any pamphlet stand his mailbox and telephone number, other contacts appear pseudonyms to his left and a woman in 1997 a sample pack of the SFN requests will receive a ticket from Michael Forest with a drawing of a person on a gallows.
When the CP'86 in 1995 en 1996 demonstration after demonstration organizes Forest is almost always present. In a banned demonstration in Apeldoorn, he also put on legs, he is arrested. Six months later he was arrested again, after a group of right-wing activists have attempted to disrupt a conference of the Green. Initially, these activists are left alone, but after Constant Kusters a cameraman beaten in the face, the police arrested them all on. Forest gets for trying to disrupt the congress a fine of one hundred guilders. In 1996 Forest is present on two legal demonstrations of the CD and the CP'86 in Zwolle and Leerdam. Both times he was member of the security service headed by Martijn Freling.
Eind 1996 the CP'86 explodes. Michael Wood does not seem to make a choice between the Nazi wing led by Martijn Freling and the Nationalist People's wing of Beaux, Hoogstra in De Boer. Go there after the split rumors Forest, Like his colleague Johan van Enk ODIN (zie verderop), has closed with the Nazi Freling-wing from November 1996 has taken over the CP'86. In spring 1997 Forest's phone number is also listed as the contact address for the Region 2 (Gelderland). In the summer, he even made it to contact the Regions 1 en 2 (North- and East Netherlands). At the same time, however, the same phone number listed as a contact phone for the Gelderland circle of the People's Nationalists Netherlands (Beaux / Farmer / Hoogstra wing). In municipal elections in 1998 He seems completely lost their way and put a supporting signature on the support frame of the Nazi Dutch People's Union (NVU).
Michael Forest since the split of the CP'86 really only two organizations long time active. First, it is of 1997 tot en met 1999 Contact East of Netherlands Outpost. He thus seems to follow his former Arnhem buddy Marcel Rüter. In februari 1998 Forest is also present at a meeting of the Research “Study, Opbouw en Strijd” headed Rüter. Organizing that afternoon a number of lectures on the theme “People, Community and Nationalism”. Second, the SFN in spreads 1997 en 1998 regularly leaflets with his mailbox and telephone number as a contact address.
Another activity which he continues to develop the mapping of political opponents (the so-called anti-antifawerk). Forest has been doing this for years and years and trots this on every right-wing activity he expects leftist opponents.
Spy Michael
In 1994 Michael Forest begins with the mapping of leftist opponents. In November there will be a process in place in Arnhem against participants in a demonstration of Nazi ANS. Michael Forest observes with some colleagues leftist protesters stand in front of the courthouse. A few months later he puts in the Gelderland province home again his opponents in the picture during an election fair where some extreme right-wing parties to participate. That same year, the Research Foundation- Documentation and Information- Network (ODIN), spies club CP'86, Founded. Michael Forest is a key strength of this club and organizes include ODIN meeting in Arnhem in July 1995. A few months before he orders a Kafka-Newsletter. After receiving nothing
to have it send a thank you card. These intelligence activities result in 1996 a brochure on anti-fascists in Arnhem: “Arnhem Gajes”. In nine pages the results of industrious digging in the registers of the Chamber of Commerce presented, but many more do not report ODIN. ODIN is lifted a year later, but is Michael Forest with his intelligence activities. He seems not only to focus on the Netherlands. In november 1997 he shows up in Antwerp at a Nazi demonstration where reparation for volunteers of the Waffen-SS is required. Forest is here with a delegation of the CP'86 and the ANS and trying also to bring against protesters here in map.
In november 1997 He is with a delegation of the VNN (Volksnationalisten Nederland) present at a meeting of the Centre for Information and Documentation on Israel (CIDI) about far-right politics. CIDI organizing that day a discussion about the threat of the extreme right. Some VNN'ers try to participate in the discussion, but leave the room at the appearance of a press photographer. Michael Forest are here in company with Johan van Enk, which in recent years has also held mainly engaged in anti-antifa. Two months later, Van Enk and Forest present at the last party congress of the CP'86. Here they try to track down leftist opponents without much success.
In 1999 Forest is seen in while in Nijmegen from his car still pictures of a demonstration against the NATO bombing in Yugoslavia.
Several left-wing individuals and organizations in the region Gelderland East by Forest in the years telephonic harassment. So he tried regularly pseudonymous information to pry. In the absence of serious far-right activity appears this is currently the main area of forest to be.
Noot 1: – The circle in Nijmegen 1991 founded by Daniel Kwan and John Campfort to derail a year later in attacks under the name Liberation Nijmegen. In november 1993 a large part of the Nijmegen circuit CP'86 arrested and eventually sentenced seven of them to participate in the Liberation.
