Video | Breivik’s ‘mentor’ hosted Johnny Adair and Nick Greger for Malta summit

EXCLUSIVE | Anders Behring Breivik’s ‘mentor’ hosted two of Europe’s most dangerous men for a Malta ‘gathering’ intended to create a powerful far-right party.

MaltaToday can reveal that Paul Ray – the man whom Breivik described as his mentor – played host in Malta last February to former Ulster Freedom Fighter (UFF) Brigadier Johnny ‘Mad Dog’ Adair and convicted terrorist and ex-neo Nazi Nick Greger.

According to sources, Paul Ray, aka ‘The Lionheart’ – who settled in Malta soon after being expelled from the far-right UK organisation English Defence League (EDL) has taken it under his wing to use the ‘Malta Gathering’ to send a message to the world that a new powerful organisation was in the making.

Johnny ‘Mad Dog’ Adair is seen with Nick Gregor aka ‘Nazi Nik’ being greeted at Malta International Airport on a YouTube video posted by Paul Ray. The film also shows the three visiting different sites around Malta, while edits show the three men in their past violent lives.

Anti-fascist organization Searchlight said the ex-UFF chief has been in talks with a notorious fascist pal over plans to seize control of the English Defence League (EDL).

It was reported that ‘Mad Dog’ Adair is being lined up by his old Neo-Nazi mate ‘Mad Nick’ Greger as one of the new leaders of the far-right group.

Adair struck up a bizarre friendship with convicted Nazi leader Greger in the mid- Nineties when he was banged up for directing terrorism.

Tattooed skinhead Greger idolised Mad Dog and on his release made him the boss of a Neo-Nazi cult in Germany.

 

Who are Johnny Adair and Nick Greger?

 

This week, Paul Ray, has given a telephone interview to the Associated Press from his home in Malta, claiming that he never had any dealings with the Norwegian mass killer and condemned the massacre.

"Being implicated in this, I just want the truth to come out and it proven that I'm nothing whatever to do with this," he said.

The 35-year-old blogger said he fled England almost two years ago after being arrested for stirring racial hatred and settled in Malta.

The EDL was founded two years ago when Lennon says British troops returned from Afghanistan to insults and harassment from Muslims in Luton, a town outside of London where the radical Islamic preacher, Abu Hamza al-Masri -- the one-eyed, hook-handed cleric -- used to preach occasionally.

The group says it wants peace -- but it also wants an end to "Islamic immigration," Shariah law and building mosques "until Islam sorts itself out," Lennon said.

He says other groups across Europe feel the same way.

"Islam is a threat to Europe," he said, denying that he is against cross-culturalism or Muslims.

The European police agency said yesterday it was investigating links between Breivik and right-wing groups in Europe.

A task force was set up shortly after the Norway attacks to help in the probe but Europol spokesman Soeren Pedersen said yesterday that British police would also join the task force. He said the task force could expand to even more countries later in an attempt to assess the threat of right-wing extremism in Europe.

Many countries are being contacted by Norwegian authorities about local people Breivik contacted electronically, according to a European security official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak about police investigations. He said Portugal was one of the latest.

But the leader of a British far-right group to which Anders Behring Breivik claims links, described the attacks as a sign of growing anger in Europe against Muslim immigrants, while a politician in a party in Italy's governing coalition called some of the gunman's ideas "great."

Following a wave of near universal revulsion against the attacks, the comments were among the first public statements that appeared to defend the extremist views which drove the Norwegian gunman to carry out the massacre. Stephen Lennon, leader of the English Defense League, told The Associated Press that he does not condone Breivik's rampage but "the fact that so many people are scared -- people have to listen to that."

"What happened in Oslo shows how desperate some people are becoming in Europe," said Lennon, 28. "It's a ticking time bomb. If they don't give that frustration and anger a platform as such and a voice -- and a way of getting emotion out in a democratic way -- it will create monsters like this lunatic."

Backtracking on earlier denials of any link to Breivik, Lennon said he is in touch with regional EDL leaders to find out whether the gunman had contact with members of the group as he claims in his sprawling manifesto. He says so far, police haven't come knocking on his door to investigate or to ask questions about his members.

Breivik has posted admiring comments about the EDL online and expressed a wish to attend its rallies, but he also was critical of members for seeming to oppose violence and for being from different ethnicities.

"It could turn out that one of our members met with him but at this point we're not turning anything up," Lennon said.

Amazing! Maltese people are SO concerned about allowing 'the wrong kind of immigrants' onto the island, and yet, allow Johnny Adair the Catholic-slaughtering terrorist to roam around without a care in the world. This man is estimated to have killed 40 innocent Catholics civilians in Ireland during the troubles, and once 'joked' to an Irish Catholic journalist that "Catholics usually travel in the boot of my car". How is it that this man arrives to your island to receive a heroes welcome, yet those fleeing war and famine are locked up for months?!

What a bunch of prats.

@Robin Huud Are you happy that the Maltese authorities allowed a man who has spent the major part of his life in plotting and killing people in Northern Ireland, simply because they were Catholics? This guy, Adair, used to be given names and addresses of the people to order from the British Army and the British Intelligence service – and you see no problem with the fact that our police corps do not bat an eyelid?

Astrolux_boy "Hint of something", draged to the courts" that's being paranoid. By your logic then half of Malta should be 'draged' to the courts then. Think about it.

@ROBIN HUUD I agree with you that there is far worse scumot ther which needs attention but people like those we don't need themhere because they might do something like that guy in Oslo and then what shall we do turn all the Arab world against us? Yes I agree with xprun that the police are duty bound to investigate and it there is a hint of somthing they should be draged to the Courts.

-xprun, Why should the police take any action against the "scum" as you put it ? have they commited any crimes in our country? They have plenty to do. i would be careful if i were you on what you say unless you have proof that says otherwise. There is far worse scum out there which needs attention. Its a question of priorities

U x'qed jistenna l-Kummissarju tal-Pulizija biex jiehu passi fuq dan il-hmieg li ghandna f'pajjizna? Jew ma xi hadd bhal Cyrus Engeret jaghmlu l-arja?! Fittxu tellghuhom il-qorti u xkupawhom il-barra minn Malta. Jew Malta issa saret l-iskip ta' pajjizi ohra?

U l-Pulizzija mohhom fic-cucati bhal nofs joint jew soft pornografy online. Nibza li meta tfaqqa xi wahda jkun tard wisq.

So as we say here in Malta we are a free country and anything goes. And we are being kept in the dark about such persons. Oh my God soon we will be another Nothern Ireland, Gaza Strip, West Bank or something like that. Aren't we suppose to have Secret Service here ara there ara only an handfull doing the job, don't tell me there are only 5 or 7. We need to be assured of the situation here in Malta before something happens.
