Holocaust Museum shooter von Brunn a 9/11 'truther' who hated 'neo-cons', Bush, McCain
The man accused of opening fire at the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC (http://www.examiner.com/a-2061726~Elderly_gunman_opens_fire_at_Holocaust_Mus eum.html) on June 10, James W. von Brunn, left a trail of unhinged writings around the internet.
The anti-semitism of von Brunn is the first thing one notices when visiting these bizarre websites. However, like those of most "white supremacists", many of von Brunn's political views (http://www.truecrimereport.com/2009/06/3_men_shot_at_holocaust_memori.php) track "Left" rather than "Right." Clearly, a re-evaluation of these obsolete definitions is long overdue.
For example, he unleashed his hatred of both Presidents Bush and other "neo-conservatives" in online essays (http://www.arsenalofhypocrisy.com/blog/?p=537). As even some "progressives" such as the influential Adbusters magazine publicly admit (http://canadiancoalition.com/adbusters01/), "neoconservative" is often used as a derogatory code word for "Jews". As well, even a cursory glance at "white supremacist" writings reveals a hatred of, say, big corporations that is virtually indistinguishable from that of anti-globalization activists.
James von Brunn's advocacy of 9/11 conspiracy theories (http://www.red-alerts.com/homeland-security/so-it-begins-shots-fired-at-holocaust-museum-in-dc-after-jeremiah-wright-claims-them-jews-are-controlling-obama/) also gives him an additional commonality with individuals on the far-left.
None of this will surprise readers of Jonah Goldberg's bestseller Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Change (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0767917189?ie=UTF8&tag=relapsedcatho-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0767917189)http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=r...1&a=0767917189 (http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=relapsedcatho-20&l=as2&o=1&a=0767917189) , which clearly demonstrates that "fascism" of the kind advocated by the British National Party (BNP) and the likes of James W. von Brunn is just as likely to reflect "leftwing" views as "rightwing" ones.
In fact, anti-semitism is something the New Left and the "Far Right" have had in common since the 1980s, which is why so many former leftists like David Horowitz defected from one side to the other during the Reagan era and beyond. It also helps explain the otherwise baffling alliance between the Left and radical Islam.

That this shooting occurred shortly after President Obama's former mentor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, blamed "the Jews" (http://hotair.com/archives/2009/06/10/rev-wright-on-obama-them-jews-arent-going-to-let-him-talk-to-me/) for his lack of access to his former parishioner is a troubling confluence of events as well.
