A wave of extremist far-right movements with chilling echoes of the Nazis is being fueled by Donald Trump, writes Sadiq Khan on 80th anniversary of World War II.
The rise of far-right movements and leaders fueled by President Donald Trump, the global poster boy for white nationalism threatens to wipe out the lessons of World War II, London Mayor Sadiq Khan charged in a scathing essay Saturday.
An entire generation of brave men and women around the globe sacrificed everything to defeat the singular evil of Nazism and fascism, Khan wrote in The Observer to mark the 80th anniversary of the Nazi invasion of Poland that launched World War II.
But now, for the first time in more than 70 years, it seems the lessons of the second world war are genuinely at risk of being forgotten or, worse still, being rewritten, he added.
This comes as a new wave of extremist far-right movements and political parties are winning power and influence at alarming speed fueled by Donald Trump, the global poster-boy for white nationalism, Khan wrote.
In addition, democratic values, including the rule of law, a free press and independent judiciary are under siege, he wrote. Vulnerable, often minority, communities are being demonized ... and in appalling new parallels with the horrors of the past, migrants, refugees, people of color, LGBTQ+ and Jewish communities are bearing the brunt, he added.
Hungarys Viktor Orbán has systematically destroyed the independence of both the judiciary and the press institutions that are also under daily verbal attack from Trump and other far-right leaders around the world, Khan noted.
We owe it those lost in World War II to defend the ideals they died for and ensure that the more peaceful and stable world they built lasts for generations to come, he declared.
There was no immediate response from Trump, but he has blasted Khan several times in the past, including insulting him as a stone-cold loser as the president headed to London for a state visit in June.
So says the Poster Boy for Islamic Extremism
Sadiq Khan - Bigot.......
Here is a guy who belongs to a religion that has killed .....how many Jews?
And he cries over Trump’s treatment of the Jews.
Wonder how often he criticized Bin Laden and Mohammed.
this country and this world who hate Trump, are crying for a sodom and gamorah government so their sins wont look so bad. they cant stand someone who tries to do it right.
“right” to them is corruption and evil.
I wonder how the Tube trains are running...
...says the head chopping muslim.
How dare that man call upon Holocaust when he himself belongs to an entity that subscribes to a book that advocates killing, raping, enslaving, and plundering. So he himself really has a closer voluntary association to a Holocaust like organization. The man seems like a real d1ck
Isn’t it rich that a non-white can rail against white nationalism? Isn’t that generous. So non-white nationalism is okay?
I prefer to keep an eye on the speedometer. Thar will force them to pass you up.
England is dead. They refuse to admit it. The Muslims know this.
The KKK are pure globalists.
Who cares what mayor shit-hole has to say?
“He cant even grasp the definition.”
You’re probably right about that — or, he’s just lying and muddying the waters.
There are different forms of nationalism. Europeans are most familiar with ethno-nationalism — nations based on a “people”, who have the same racial, linguistic, and cultural makeup. The USA (and Canada, and Australia, among others) have a nationalism based on a shared vision, beliefs, mission, etc. Rather than ethno-nationalism, there’s a melting pot; or, at least, a salad bowl. The Dem leadership knows about those difference — but, they’re deliberately conflating “nationalism” with “ethno-nationalism”; and, in particular, “white-nationalism”. May birds peck out their livers for eternity.
Getting really worn out on these lies constantly being told.
Ho hum, liberal projection...like the sun rising in the east...
Thanks for the visual backup. Just going to remind “Sadiq KHANNN” that it was his religious brothers who committed war crimes, including genocide, against the Jews of the Yugoslavia region, Christians, and other minorities.
They formed two SS Divisions, led by the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, a wanted war criminal (by the British) and progenitor of the infamous 1929 Hebron massacre of Jews in the British Mandate of Palestine.
He later went to work for Gamal Abdul Nasser, another open Nazi-sympathizer and supporter against the British in Egypt, and later against Israel.
Khan is just another Islamic extremist posing as an “English gentleman”, something he will never be because he’s religiously and intellectually corrupt and evil.
Something also conveniently forgotten is that before Jerusalem was liberated from the muslums, Jews were not allowed to pray at the Western Wall, and in fact, the blowing of the Shofar on the High Holidays carried a death sentence.

Nipple-high muslim terrorist lecturing us on Nazis. What a hoot!
