Who
Is Anton Long?
Caveat Lector
Who is Anton Long? Anton Long: the alleged founder - the documented Grandmaster -
of the sinister, Occult group named The Order of Nine Angles.
For three decades, it has been assumed - by journalists, and others, of
the modern sub-species Homo
Hubris -
that Anton Long is just a pseudonym of one David Myatt, the former
fanatical and violent neo-nazi street-thug and theoretician of terror
who, in the 1990's, formed and led the NSM; who was alleged to be the
mentor of and inspiration for David Copeland, the London nail
bomber; who, after his controversial conversion to Islam, praised
and
supported bin Laden and the Taliban and penned theoretical tracts in
favor of martyrdom operations (suicide bombings) and attacks on
"infidel civilians"; and who now (allegedly) has returned to his now
much revised mystical philosophy, The Numinous Way, which somewhat gnostic philosophy extols the virtues of empathy and compassion.
Myatt himself, however, has always denied being Anton Long, and has
repeatedly challenged anyone to provide any evidence in support of this
accusation, something the supporters of the Anton Long is David Myatt
theory
have significantly failed to do.
In addition, Professor Kaplan - author of several books where Myatt is
mentioned, and who corresponded with Myatt in the 1990's - is of the
opinion that Myatt and Long are two different people. Several other
people who know Myatt personally are also of this opinion.
If this is correct, and David Myatt is not Anton Long, then are there
any clues as to the real identity of Anton Long, Satanist? Indeed yes.
For example, Myatt has stated on several occasions when asked about the
matter - for example to Nick Lowles of Searchlight, in an
interview at
Craven Arms, Shropshire, in 1997 - that the mysterious Anton Long was a
"long-standing friend" of his. This fact is also mentioned by Professor
Kaplan several times - for example, in footnote #51 of his book Nation and Race.
Who, therefore, might this mysterious long-standing friend of Myatt's
be? Myatt once let slip that he was an Oxford academic, in the 1990's -
a fact confirmed by Julie Wright in her short pseudonymous essay A Personal Encounter with DWM.
But
the real clue lies in the Acknowledgments
section of a scholarly book published in Oxford by the OUP in the late
1980's, where the the author states that over the years his
intellectual development greatly benefited from discussions with
[.....] – and here, a certain Anton
Long is mentioned - along with a host of Professors, and other academic
luminaries.
Research into the author of this academic work - which is now a
standard text on the subject used by Universities all over the world -
has revealed the astonishing fact he was in the NF in the early 1970's
and lived, at that time, in the same Yorkshire city where Myatt then
lived and where Myatt, with his fellow neo-nazi and friend Eddy
Morrison, founded the ultra-violent neo-nazi organization, the NDFM.
Further research has revealed (1) that, at the time and for a brief
period, the girlfriend of the future author of this academic work was
none other than the elder of Eddy Morrison's two sisters; and (2) that
it was this person - the future Oxford Don - who acted as the
go-between in arranging an interview between aspiring newspaper
reporter (and then University student) Nicholas Witchell and the even then
notorious street-thug David Myatt, which interview appeared in a
student newspaper under the headline Evil
Genius.
After the publication of the aforementioned work, the academic career
of this Oxford Don blossomed, and he was, in the early years of the
twenty first century, appointed to the Professorship at a German
University, where he remained for many years, until his recent
appointment as a Professor at another University.
Is this now renowned academic the mysterious and secretive Anton Long?
There is a great deal of circumstantial evidence to support this
assumption, for he has certainly been a life-long friend of Myatt;
certainly had an interest in the Occult in the early 1970's, and
certainly was present in Oxford when regular ONA sunedrions were held
in that city at a certain hotel owned by a lady member of the ONA,
although it is rumored that he and Myatt became estranged sometime in
the early part of the twentieth century when both became involved with,
and fell in love with, the same woman, of East European descent.
But, one might inquire, if this erudite and now renowned academic - now
author of numerous academic tomes - is indeed Anton Long, why is Anton
Long credited in that Oxford published 1989 academic work? There is a
quite simple answer, consistent with the character of Anton Long and
with the methodology of the ONA - and this is that it was both a
cryptic clue, for the sagaciously determined, as to the real identity
of Anton Long, and also a jape, an "insider" (ONA) jest of the kind the
ONA has often described in various of its documents. That this was the
first academic book published by this author - which book launched him
on the road to academic fame - is also another clue.
As to the actual name of this individual, there are more than enough
clues given above for those with a serious interest in the matter to
discover it for themselves. Which is, after all, I assume what the
mysterious Anton Long intended.
