An elderly man shot two people at the U.S. Memorial Holocaust Museum shortly after 1 p.m. today. The suspect is 89-year-old James W. von Brunn. A man with that name has written racist and anti-Semitic tracks on the web site Holy Western Empire.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks hate groups, has this:

Von Brunn runs the website holywesternempire.org, which was listed in 2008 as a hate site by the SPLC. Von Brunn has a long history of associations with prominent neo-Nazis and Holocaust deniers. In the 1980s or early 1990s, von Brunn was employed by Noontide Press, a part of the Holocaust denying Institute of Historical Review…


Von Brunn is the author of the 1999 book, “Kill the Best Gentiles,” a racist and anti-Semitic tome that argues that whites are seeing “today on the world stage a tragedy of enormous proportions: the calculated destruction of the White Race and the incomparable culture it represents. Europe, former fortress of the West, is now over-run by hordes of non-Whites and mongrels.” A raging anti-Semite, von Brunn blames “The Jews” for the destruction of the West…

On his website, von Brunn also claims that in 1981, while wearing a “London Fog raincoat to conceal his weapons,” he attempted to put the whole Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve under “legal, non-violent citizens-arrest.” He wanted “to bind their hands and persuade them to appear on television.” The website says he was sentenced to 11 years for his actions.

A raging anti-Semitic and racist posting on the website arsenalofhypocrisy.com attributed to “James Von Brunn” says that “the Federal Reserve Act (1913) gave JEWS control of America’s Money.” It also says that “America is a Third-World racial garbage dump-stupid, ignorant, dead-broke, and terminal.” It ends with, “Prepare to die, Whitey.”
