Europa: The Last Battle

Europa: The Last Battle is a ten-part series made by swedish neonazi Tobias Bratt. It is focused on Nazi apologia, historical revisionism and conspiracy theories about jews and communism. It's composed of wholly unfounded and sourceless claims mixed in with known historical facts, which makes it hard for the average person to seperate truth from falsehood. Normally, sourceless claims can be dissmissed without investigation, but since it's widely cited by neonazis on the internet, we have taken it upon ourselfs to take every claim seriously, and investigate it as if it were true.

All good propaganda contains a grain of truth. To lie is very easy, but the truth requires close study. We in the infrared collective are commited to the final and most complete truth. This page will serve as a master page for debunking Europa: The Last Battle. This time, with real sources.

Part 1

Claim (02:22): "in the middle of the 19th century Moses Hess formulated the first written principles for communism"

This claim is loosly based on Hess association with Marx and Engels, and Moses view that history will culminate in the introduction of common property, formulated in his Spinozist book Die heilige Geschichte der Menschheit (1837), which had no explicit mention of communism. Hess was, however, not the first person to argue for the abolition of private property, nor the first to formulate a political platform with the word communism, neither was he the first person to use the word communism. It's real origins stem from people and groups arguing for a communal organisation of society in France and England during the mid 19th century, Commun, Communion and community. It can not be pinned to one person. First attested in writing - meaning first record of political principles - by John Goodwin Barmby in 1841, founder of the utopian, christian, London Communist Propaganda Society. People arguing for the abolition of private property (as Engels put it, the meaning of communism in one sentence), predated the 19th century. For example the French Catholic abbé Jean Meslier's Testament (1729) Verdict: False

Claims (04:08): "Hess was a close friend and collaborator of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels"

He was indeed a close associate, together with other young hegelians, and they corresponded an influenced eachother in early writings. Verdict: True!

"Karl Marx and Engels were Jewish"

Engels was not Jewish, his lineage is accessible here. The father of Karl Marx was a jew by birth, however he converted to christianity to pursue a law career. Marx, at the time 6 years old, was also converted. Simultaneously, Marx has been accused of antisemitism for his writings on the jewish question, which shows the complete retardation of speculative, non-material ideology. Verdict: False

"Karl Marx real name was Mordechai Levy"

His fathers, Heschel Lewy, changed his own family name before Marx was born. Not once in his life did Karl Marx use his fathers birth name in writing. Verdict: False

"Hess converted them to communism and assisted them with their work The Communist Manifesto"

Hess first came into contact with Marx in 1942 - working together on a newspaper in the intellectual, communist enviroment of Paris - and their relationship was quite the opposite, Marx was the teacher of Hess. Marx early writings are available here, where he slowely lands in the conclusion of communism, from an entirely different angle, a materialist one, than Hess. Marx writes that he was influenced not only by Hess, but by French and English socialists which were utopian christians, furthermore by Weitling and Engels - who together with Hess were the only Germans to translate French communist ideas into German. While Hess definetly influenced both on the subject of money and alienation by loss of communal property, the narrative is deeply missconstrued. Hess came to his conclusion from a theological perspective, money as seperation from god, while Marx and Engels where materialists. Furthermore, when Marx and Engels wrote the communist manifesto, they would critique Hess's utopian form of communism. Verdict: False

Claim (06:40): Marx openly encouraged genocide against slavs, referring to them as "racial trash".

There is absolutely zero record of this. He would routinely critique precisely such racial incitements. We can nonetheless note that Marx and Engels were both racist, antisemitic and sexist in private communication. Verdict: False.

Claim (06:45): "Marx said that [slavs] must perish in a revolutionary holocaust (in 1856)"

The quote shown on screen is as follows: "the classes and races too weak to master the new conditions of life must give away... They must perish in a revolutionary holocaust." The first part is a real quote, from 1853, not 1856. So close! Marx is commenting on the refugee crisis of poor farmers from Ireland due to the negative effects off industrialisation. He sees these negative effects as an inevitable part of capitalist modernisation, so he is, in his own mind, not arguing for anything. The second part is completely fictional, perhaps it was revealed to Tobias B. in a dream. Verdict: False

Claim (08:36): A quote by zionist Josef Herzl is shown on the screen, where he claims that wealthy jews rule the world and start the wars in europe.

The quote reads as follows: "The wealthy jews rule the world; the fate of the governments lies in their hands. They start wars between countries, and when they wish, the governments make peace. When the wealthy jews sing, the nations and their leaders dance along, and meanwhile the jews get richer!"

Claim: Marx was related to the Rothschilds

Let's investigate the lineage. Mayer Amschel Rothschild (1744 – 1812) was the founder of the banking dynasty. He does not have a common ancestor with Marx. One of his five children however - Nathan Mayer Rothschild - married Hannah Barent Cohen. Hannah's Grandfather, Barent Cohen, was the Grand-Grand-Grand father of Marx. Verdict: true

Claim (17:50): Every federal reserve chairman since 1980 has been jewish

Verdict: Pretty sure this is true

Claim (18:34): An alleged quote by Harold Wallace Rosenthal, were he claims jewish control of the FRB system for the purpose of world domination.

The source for this quote is very sketchy. It was first published in 1978, 18 months after Rosenthal's death, by a Walter White Jr. under the name of The Hidden Tyranny. Thomas Metzger, famous nazi and klansman has dismissed it as false, claiming: "Walter White operated free and loose on some subjects, like this one...That interview is bogus. There is plenty of valid material to use against the Jews." But even if we don't dismiss it on those terms alone, there is plenty of ridiculous claims in the text itself, such as Soviet Russia being controlled by a secret jewish government during the cold war: "There are about six to seven million Communists in Soviet Russia. 50% are Jews and about 50% gentile — but the gentiles are not trusted."... This is of course just a complete fabrication, there is not a single statistic to support it, and it creates a whole slew of contradictions. At the same time, the document claims that the US government has been completely controlled by jews since Roosevelt, which would mean that things like the red scare by Mcarthy, or the war against communist Vietnam and communist Korea was orchestrated by communist jews, on both sides. Or that CIA anti-communism in the middle east were battleing their own attempt to take power. Why would the jews need to scare away communism, if communism is a tool for jews to take control of governments? Who knows, right. Retard. Verdict: false.
