Functioning
as my personal “Index of Banned People”
The unofficial International GER (Good Effing
Riddance) Day is May 2. Only those who have wormed their way by necessity into
this blog are listed here, and all can be found elsewhere on the blog in the
deepest, bloodiest dark red
some of the
GERs are not really GERs, because, sadly, they are still with us, and still
doing their best to do their worst
All names in this Index are by birth-certificate, which may not be the name by which you know them.
At the top left-hand
corner of every screen there is a flat rectangular box with an icon of a
magnifying-glass: your search bar. You may well find it easier to find the
person you are seeking there.
Acheron: everything you probably would prefer not to
know anyway can be found on June 22
Agobard, Agobardus, Agobaldus, Aguebaudus (circa 769 – 840): Archbishop of
Lyon from 816 to 840; authoring anti-Semitic pamphlets on July 14
Hermann Ahlwardt: elected to the Reichstag on Dec 5
Anton Akšamović, Bishop of Djakovic and the Diocese
of Bosna et Srijem: his entry on July 14
is ambiguous, but, generally speaking, endorsing Arryan values in the Nazi era
was not likely to be empathetic towards Jews
Alexander of Macedon: a student of Aristotle on April 5 and Oct 2; Mary Renault's "Alexander Trilogy” on Sept 4; main
tale on Oct 1; has a city or ten named after him
on Nov 3; mentioned on Dec 16

May 11
Hafez al-Assad of Syria: invaded Israel on his
birthday, Oct 6 1973; his equally revolting
son Bashir al-Assad can be found, alas still alive, killing his own
people, on Aug 9 and Jan 11; update 2025:
gone, overthrown, hiding in Russia somewhere, and replaced by people who will
probably prove even worse, ISIS
Generalissimo Francisco Paulino Hermenegildo Teódulo
Franco Bahamonde (plain Franco to most of us): Guernica
on April 26 and July 22; achieved GERdom
on Nov 20; mentioned on Aug 26 and Sept
1
Maffeo Vincenzo Barberini (Pope Urban VIII) (1623-1644): showed Galileo the instruments of torture on Jan 8
Augustin Barruel (sometimes known as Augustin
de Barruel and Abbé Barruel (born October 2
1741; died October 5 1820): a French journalist, intellectual, and Jesuit
priest, he is best known for his conspiracy theory that the French Revolution
was the result of a plot, and not by just any secret societies, but
specifically by Jewish ones - see July 14
Jorge Mario Bergoglio (Pope Francis) insisted in the
Christian tradition that “freedom of speech has limits”, on Jan 14
Cardinal Adolf
Johannes Bertram of Breslau 1859-1945: I
cannot bring myself to write here what is already on July 14
John Birch: causing Bob Dylan extreme paranoia on May 19
Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck: "statesman and military theoretician" according to his
supporters; became the first Ubermensch of Prussia on Sept 22
William Bligh: his full tale on Sept 29; what
happened to the mutineers can be found on April 28 and in TheWorldHourglass
Jean-Bedel Bokassa: declared the Central
African Republic to be the Central African Empire and crowned himself Emperor
Bokassa I in 1977 [see 1979 on the Africa page for
his overthrow]
Adolf Martin Bormann sentenced to death “in absentia”
at Nuremberg on Oct 1; “in absentia”,
because he had already died the previous
year, on May 2
Pieter Willem Botha: replaced as as
President of South Africa by F.W. de Klerk in 1989; the latter immediately beginning the dismantling of Apartheid [Africa]
Georges Boulanger: trying to be Napoleon, or maybe Hitler, on Dec 9
Anders Behring Breivik, “that man in Norway” on Jan 11
Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev: ousting Kruschev on
Oct 15
Josip Broz (a.k.a. Marshall Tito): born May 25
George Walker Bush: getting Tony
Blair to do his dirty-work for
him on June 13
Gaius Julius Caesar: introduced the Leap Year on Feb 29; destroyed the library in Alexandria on March 29 (also mentioned on Oct 1)
Benedetto Caetani (Pope Boniface VIII) at war-of-words with Philip IV (“the Fair”) of France on Dec 5; read his “Ausculta Fili” here, his “Unam Sanctum” here; read about his arrest by Philip here, and with it an explanation both of why the
Popes spent much of the next century in Avignon, not Rome, and why the Cathars
were destroyed
John Caldwell Calhoun: generally obnoxious on Aug 10 (I believe he was the man who led the fight to stop the
abolition of slavery, but I need to check that... yep, checked, he was... GERRRRRR)
John Calvin (Jehan Cauvin on his
birth certificate, 10 July 1509): French-born but mostly Geneva-based, he
published “Institutes of the Christian Religion” there in 1536, three years
after leaving Catholicism for Lutheranism, but then having disagreements. His
followers today have acronymed his beliefs TULIP, which stand for “Total
Depravity”, “Unconditional Election”, “Limited Atonement”, “Irresistible
Grace”, and “Perseverance of the Saints”, none of which is remotely meaningful
to me, nor interesting enough to want to find out more. His followers also
regard themselves as Puritans, which seems to me another extremely good reason
for not wanting to know more, and why I have placed him on the GER page, and
refused him entry to the world of the Poetikos on the main Index or among the reverend writers. Calvin’s precise
role in the execution of Servetus is not
clear (see Oct 26), but it was he who established
“fear-of-lifeism” in Geneva, with an extensive catalogue of austere rules that
included a ban on swearing, gambling, and fornication, and on dancing, even at
weddings, while unexcused absence from worship was penalised. The same
Totalitarianism as today’s “Woke” and “Cancel”. See Jan 1; further mentions on Jan 11, May 4, Nov 18 and Dec 16 – and
there will be at least one more from the W-B women (Marie Dentière, or
correctly d’Ennetières) when I
finish writing it, because he was a misogynist (should that be a Cauvinist?) into
the bargain
Alphonse Gabriel (Al) Capone: Valentines Day
massacre of 1929 on Feb 14; mentioned on Aug 18 for the same reason that he was convicted
on Oct 17, and yes, Jake the Barber is in the piece as well
CCCP/USSR: the Warsaw pact was formally
dissolved on March 31 (it was formed
on July 6); the USSR was disbanded on Dec 21
GER day in
Romania, the overthrow of Tovarășul Conducător Nicolae
Ceaușescu on Dec 22
Major-General Robert Clive (Clive of India): conquest by
commerce on Sept 29
Charles E.
Coughlin (born October
25 1891; died October 27 1979): known as "The Radio Priest" and
listened to by millions in the USA and Canada through the 1930s; his broadcasts
defending Hitler's Jewish policy can be found on July
14
Oliver Cromwell (“Old Noll”, “Old
Ironsides”):
dissolved the English Parliament in order to rule by decree on April 20;
“woke and
cancel” and the smashing of the
gargoyles on Aug 27, Dec
6 and Oct 1; for Cromwell
and the Jews see Sept 30 and Dec 8;
mentioned, but somewhat ridiculously, on March 15; the civil war and his death on Sept 4; compared with Louis XIV on Sept 5
His successor, Richard Cromwell (1658 - 1659, same title as his dad)
was forced to resign after just nine months.
Thascius Caecilius Cyprianus, though he
started as plain Thascius, added Caecilius in honour of the priest who brought him
to Christianity, but generally remembered St.
Cyprian of Carthage: 3rd-century bishop and Christian writer from
North Africa who can be found promoting Jew-hatred on July 14
Cyril (Κύριλλος,
pronounced Kýrillos) of Alexandria: 5th century; known for defending core Christian doctrines like the
divinity of Christ and Mary's status as Theotokos, the Mother of God; he is
remembered in Jewish circles for his expulsion of their thousand-year-old
community from Alexandria on July 14
Georges Danton: mentioned on July 13 and Aug 13
Jefferson F Davis: president of the Confederate
States from 1861 to 1865, hater of John Brown on Dec 2; apparently the F got added by a later biographer,
who intended it to stand for "Finis"; I like that, but Jefferson GER Davis is still
my preference
Major General Anastasio Somoza Debayle of Nicaragua:
assassinated on Sept 17
Robert Devereux,
2nd Earl of Essex
(born November 10 1565; beheaded February 25 1601): see “The Plausible Tragedie of Roderigo Lopes” for his
disgraceful framing and forging and faking to get Lopes killed,
and here for the coup attempt which he staged on Nov 5, and which is why he belongs where Queen Bess sent him when it failed, which was to the scaffold in the
Tower of London
Andrzej Sebastian Duda: Polish Death Camps on Feb 6
Otto Adolf Eichmann (aka Ricardo Klement): on trial on Jan 11; “kidnapped” on May 11;

Roberto
Farinacci: blaming Jesus
for anti-Semitism on July 14
Michael von Faulhaber, known both as Cardinal and as Archbishop of Munich, having been the
latter from 1917 until his death in 1952; his opposition to the Nazis might
have spared him from this list, but his comments on July
14 assure his presence here
Henry Ford: another of the ghastly
anti-Semites, but it's for his treadmills that he’s mentioned on Dec 1
Josef Richard
Frings, Cardinal, and Archbishop
of Cologne from 1942 to 1969, remembered in the neologism "fringsen":
from his declaration that stealing food to survive wasn't a mortal sin; denying
the Holocaust on July 14
Colonel Muammar Mohammed Abu Minyar Gaddafi: came to power Sept 1 (should really be on Oct 20, as per the text); also on the Africa page
Juan Garrido: and of all the
names on this list, few can be more deserving of a place here than this man,
the first African-American on the continent, a Conquistador in the company of Cortez and Juan
Ponce de León, and a man who would become one of the wealthiest slave-owners of his
day: you have to say that to yourself, slowly: an African-American who became,
no, not a slave, a slave-owner, in the Americas; Africa page and here (and see Juan Valiente, below)
Johannes Maria
Gföllner, Bishop of Linz : another whose
opposition to Nazism might have spared him from this list, but sadly he
rejected that redemption on July 14
Józef Glemp, Archbishop of Warsaw and Primate
of Poland for many years, including during the end of Communist rule in the
country. I leave you to make your own judgement about his remarks on July 14, and then recommend you to look at my
page for Feb 6
Paul Josef Goebbels, Nazi minister of propaganda: killed
himself and his family on May 1; also mentioned on Jan 3, Jan 11 and Aug 26
Antão Gonçalves of Portugal: began the African slave trade
in 1441 [Africa]; the full tale here
Charles George Gordon (born January 28 1833; died January 26 1885): one of the destroyers of
Yuan Ming Yuan on Jan 11; and yet still very much amongst
the “Heroes” on Sept 29: Charles
George Gordon of Khartoum, or “Chinese
Gordon”, or “Gordon Pasha”
his sobriquets - in other words, another British imperialist who spent his life beating
up people in countries where he had no business being except maybe as a
tourist, and is regarded as a hero for having done so.
Hermann Wilhelm Göring (or Goering): committed
suicide on Oct 15; also on Oct 31 with Hitler
and Himmler, and mentioned on July 22
John Hawkins: beaten in Jamaica on Dec 8
Walter Richard Rudolf Hess: parachuted into
Britain on May 10 to offer peace if

Spandau Prison, he died on Aug 17

John Edgar Hoover: vacuumed into oblivion on May 2; mentioned on Aug 17

headed the Santa Maria dell'Anima congregation: defending the Nazis on July 14
Gamal Abdel Nasser Hussein: staged his coup on July 23;
nationalised the Suez Canal on July 5 and 26;
vouched for the authenticity of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion on Aug 26; in the red corner against
Christiane Desroches Noblecourt on Oct 21 [also
on the Africa page]
Theodor Innitzer, Archbishop of Vienna and later a Cardinal:
supporting Cardinal Hlond on July 14
I would include David John Cawdell Irving
on this list, under Sept 6, but I
absolutely deny that such a person ever has or ever could have existed.
Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson: shot by
his own soldiers on May 2 (he
didn’t die till May 10)
John of Antioch (circa 347–407): Archbishop of Constantinople, renowned
as a great Church Father, preacher, and writer, to the point that he acquired
the sobriquet "golden-mouthed", or Chrysostom in Greek, with
his sainthood then prepended; and you have to admit, that is very fine poetry
that is quoted on July 14, the use of
simile in the first phrase, the alliterative "g"in the third phrase s
especially
William Brooke Joyce (Lord Haw-Haw): convicted and
hanged on Jan 3; sentenced to death on
Sept 19
Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili (Joseph Vissarionovich

10, Aug 20, Sept 5, Oct 23,

Ayatollah Ruhollah Mostafavi Musavi Khomeini: Shi'a Islam in
Iran on Feb 1
Nikita Sergeyevich Khrushchev: set out to
destroy Boris Pasternak on Oct 23; tantrumming on Oct 12,
so hardly surprising he was ousted on Oct 15; the Bay of
Pigs is on April 17; also mentions on Aug
13 and Nov 13
Captain William Kidd (no, not that Billy the Kid; he's below): hanged for piracy and murder on May 23
Horatio Herbert Kitchener: needing his fellow countrymen to
die on Aug 3
KKK: formed on Dec 24 (1865, in Pulaski, Tennessee; that’s all I’m
prepared to write about it)
Rajmund Kolbe, but now remembered as St.
Maximilian Kolbe; he became famous as the Franciscan
friar who volunteered to die in place of a stranger at Auschwitz during World
War II, earning him the title "Martyr of Charity"; the truth is
slightly different: the "stranger" was not Jewish, though the tale is
always told in a way that infers that Jewishness; his offer was rejected,
though he was eventually given given a lethal injection of phenol by the SS after
surviving for several weeks in the starvation bunker; August 14, 1941 his
deathdate, July 14 on the blog his
promotion of anti-Semitic literature
Alexei Nikolayevich Kosygin: with Brezhnev on Oct 15
Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kruger: saved by his
park on Oct 10
Henry William Lamb, 2nd Viscount Melbourne (born
March 15 1779; died November 24 1848): has a city named
after him on Nov 3 (served as British Prime Minister
from July to November 1834, when the king sacked him - the last PM to be sacked
by the monarch - and again from 1835 to 1841; pretty ghastly man who supported
slavery, voted against the 1832 Reform Act, and sent the Tolpuddle Martyrs to Botany
Bay for daring to protest against farm-workers’ wages being slashed; you can
see why his wife went off with a rather differently-minded lover - she was Lady Caroline of Lord Byron fame (see May 9)
Simon Langham: getting rid of Wycliffe on May 4
and somewhat reluctantly given the greatness of the rest of his family,
Harvard president Abbott Lawrence Lowell (born 13
December 1856; died January 6 1943): click here; Abbot was Amy and Percival Lowell’s brother; Robert Lowell's great
uncle
General Douglas MacArthur: relieved of his
command in Korea on April 11 (but
only after he had wiped out the country’s entire agricultural base with
chemicals that will take several years yet to dissipate sufficiently to resume
adequate farming; and he wanted to use nuclear bombs)
Bernard Lawrence (Bernie) Madoff, though I think that should be
spelled Made-off: Ponzi scheming on Dec 17
Charles Milles Manson: mass murder of
his own cult-worshippers on Aug 9
King Manuel I (“the Fortunate”) of Portugal: (1469-December 13 1521): expelling
the Jews on Dec 5

Emperor Haile Selassie in a Marxist
military coup in 1974 [Sept 12 on the
blog and the Africa page]
Vyacheslav Mikhaylovich Molotov: Aug 23: Stalin’s foreign minister: for this entry
I should be offering a cocktail of websites... so here for him, here for my silly joke, here for an added drop of
something-or-other (gin or dynamite, depending on what kind of cocktail you
prefer)
Roger de Mortimer (see Isabella
of France on the Aenglish page): on Jan 20 for the “abdication” of Edward II; bio here

Roberto Farinacci preaching
anti-Semitism on July 14; the argument against “appeasement”
on July 22; made the trains run on time on Sept 1; also on the Africa page
Nebuchadnezzar II (born latish 600s BCE; died 562 BCE): dragging the Jews into Babylonian
exile on March 5
plain Horace but he did so like
upgrading his ego to Horatio Nelson: set back human progress by nearly
two hundred years on Sept 29;
mentioned on Aug 10
Elisabeth Nietzsche: establishing the South American
base for fleeing Nazis, with her husband Bernhard
Förster, on Aug 25
Sergei

publisher; sometimes confused with the god of the river Nile on July 14
Richard Milhous Nixon: resigned Aug 8; proposed the invasion of Cuba on Nov 13
Gregorius Nyssenus in Latin, Grēgórios Nýssēs (Γρηγόριος Νύσσης ) in Greek,
St. Gregory of Nyssa, which is on the
Meander river in Turkey: one of the Cappadocian Fathers alongside his brother
Basil the Great and Gregory of Nazianzus; wandering off the straight-and-narrow
ways of moral Christianity by pronouncing the most vile anti-Semitic rant on
July 14
Gaius Octavius (Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus, but generally
remembered as Augustus Caesar): banned Ovid
on Jan 8; Luke 2:1-2 on April 29;
born Sept 23; poisoned on Oct 13
Origen Adamantius (Origen of Alexandria): (circa 185-253
CE): famous for his extensive biblical commentary and ascetic lifestyle, but on
the blog on July 14 for living up to
his name in his anti-Semitism
Idi Amin Dada Oumee: came to power in Uganda on Feb 2; thrown
to the crocodiles on April 11 [Africa]
Juan Domingo Perón: still in power
on May 11; first of three times on Oct 17; finally ousted on Sept 19
Henri Philippe
Benoni Omer Joseph Pétain (Marshal Pétain): head of the Vichy government in Nazi-occupied France; see July 14
Pontius Pilate: Anne Wroe's biography can be found on May 11; he is only on this page with a question-mark, to which the
answer can be found in my Judas Iscariot piece in "The Captive
Bride",
and in Tony Blair's article about him
on June 13
Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, but he hasn’t
gone yet so I shouldn’t really include him (I have actually created a special
corner of this page for him, in a little village called Navalny, on the road to
Siberia. Putin apparently is known to
his friends - he only has one in the world and that’s his mirror - as Ras, and
you can work out that little joke for yourself. The surname should be
pronounced with a French accent): too young for Kim
Philby on Jan 23;
mentioned on May 10 and July 11
Vidkun Quisling: ran Norway for the Nazis on April 15
Ronald Reagan: fulfilling H.L. Mencken's prophesy on Jan 14 and

Oskar
Schindler on Aug 23; German Ambassador to the United
Kingdom at one point, Hitler’s Foreign Minister at the time of the Molotov pact;
arrested in June 1945, and sentenced to death at the Nuremberg trials for his
role in starting World War II - all of which confirms that Oskar Schindler needs to be desanctified: here
Margaret Hilda Roberts (Thatcher): invaded the Argentinian Las
Malvinas islands on Jan 5 (and sank the Belgrano on May 2); brought down by the Battle of
Trafalgar Square on March 31 (see
also June 15); “Daggers” on Oct 13; not for turning on Dec 18; handed back Hong Kong on Dec 19; threw the miners in the pit on Dec 20; mentioned negatively on Feb 22 and Sept

Sheikh Ekrima Sa'id Sabri, Grand Mufti of Jerusalem: espoused the Protocols of the Elders of Zion on Aug 26
Ivan Evanđelist
Šarić, Bishop of
Sarajevo from 1922 to 1960; the middle name

those who use it: proud to hate Jews on July 14

Saint Oskar Schindler, Righteous Gentile: set up and ran the pretext for the invasion of Poland on Aug 23; established his slave-camp on June 24; the only senior member of the Abwehr kept out of the Von Stauffenberg plot
on July 27; number 4
in Military Intelligence on Sept 1; Thomas Keneally’s version on
Oct 7 (but the
full and complete story is in my essay in "Travels In Familiar Lands").
Ariel (Arik) Scheinerman (later Sharon): mis-spelled as Charon on June 22, or is the mis-spelling the other
way around? And once again this page is fraught with self-contradiction: Sharon,
surely, was a national hero, the general in the Yom Kippur War who saved Israel
from annihilation… the same applies to Mao and Lenin,
who took their people out of serfdom into… something rather better, however
horrible some of it may have been along the way. But can you say that for… and
what about Napoléon, whose Edicts of Tolerance are now the standard for all
western societies… and…
Adolf Shicklgruber (Hitler or Hiedler): became Reich Chancellor on Jan 30; dissolved the
Reichstag on Feb 2; possibly playing chess on Feb 21; imprisoned for his involvement in the
Beer Hall Putsch (in Munich on Nov 8
1923) on April 1; cartooned on April 20; committed suicide on April 30,

The
surrender of Germany and the proclamation of Victory in Europe (VE
Day) can be celebrated on May 8
Fra Junipero Serra:
beatified despite the protests of California’s native tribes on Sept 23; and see my essay in “Travels In Unfamiliar Lands”
Ian Douglas Smith: Prime Ministered Southern Rhodesia on April 17
Alojzije Viktor Stepinac in his native
Croatian, Aloysius (or Aloys) Viktor
Stepinac in English: Archbishop of Zagreb and another whose entry on
July 14 is ambiguous: presumably it
is okay to regard Jews as a superior race, and then exterminate them; or is he
insisting that they and the Gypsies be allowed to live, precisely because they
are inferior? Not a great position to adopt either way
Jurgen Stroop: wiped out the Warsaw Ghetto on May 8
Charles McArthur Ghankay Taylor:
launched a civil war in Liberia in 1990, became President, committed
atrocities in Sierra Leone...
Reichskommissar Josef Terboven: put Quisling in charge of Norway on April 15
Friar Thaddeus: goes with Rabbi
Judah Loew ben Bezalel on
March 11
Jozef Gašpar Tiso: started out as a Slovak Catholic priest, ended up as President
of the Nazi's puppet-state known as the First Slovak Republic; executed for
treason and war crimes. Make sure you have the fly spray in hand when you read
his listing on July 14
Tomas de Torquemada, Inquisitor-General of Spain: died
Sept 16
Donald John Trump gets a tweet on May 2, and further pieces of fake news Jan 24, June 18,
Oct 3, Oct
25 and Nov 10
Tammany Hall's William Magear “Boss” Tweed:
cartooned by Thomas Nast on Sept 27; arrested on Oct 27
Isaac Uzziel, fully Isaac ben Abraham Uziel of
Fez (and later of
Amsterdam), who taught Menasseh ben Israel as well as Rabbi Aboab;
and in Aboab’s case taught him how to excommunicate a fellow Jew, by
doing this to Uriel da Costa (Adam Romes was his pen-name), and not once but twice, da Costa committing suicide after the
degradations imposed on him the second time. His crime? Exactly the same as Baruch Spinoza’s. Free thought of an Enlightenment sort, and the invention,
though he didn’t call it that, of Bible Criticism: Feb 1
Juan Valiente: not quite in the same league as Juan Guarrido (see above), but only because
his early life was as a slave; until he became their master; bio here
Hendrik Frensch Verwoerd, South African
Prime Minister: stabbed to death on Sept 6 [Africa]
Joam Fernandes Vieyra: led the nine-year long siege of Recife which wiped out the
first Jewish community in the Americas (Feb 1); hating Brazil’s Jews on Feb 1
Kurt Waldheim born in Austria in 1918; UN
Secretary-General from 1972 to 1981, President
of Austria from 1986 to 1992; none of which would suggest an obvious presence
on the GER list; but the issue throughout his time in those jobs was that he had
served in the German army during WWII, mostly as an interpreter, a liaison
officer, and an intelligence officer in the Balkans, mostly in Montenegro and
Albania, but also Greece. But partisans in areas under his authority were
massacred, and all the Jews in those areas were deported to the camps. He
cannot have been ignorant of this, even is he was not actively complicit. I am
leaving him here until someone can convince me otherwise. He's on the blog,
having a very contraversial meeting with the Pope, on July 14
Ferdinand de Wilton Ward (1851-1925): click here; Reverend Ferdinand De
Wilton Ward: his dad; Jane Shaw: his mum: the Napoleon of Wall Street on Dec 17
Eugen (Eugène) Weidmann: lost his head on June 17
Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of
Wellington: won the Battle of Waterloo on June 18, setting back the course of human progress by
about a hundred and seventy-five years; his arch mentioned on Dec 4;his brief fling with Caroline Lamb will be on May 9 when I complete that
essay
Frank Weltner of the American National Alliance,
a white-nationalist, anti-Semitic, white-separatist political organization
founded by a physics professor named William Luther Pierce: brought the “Protocols of the
Elders of Zion” to America on Aug 26
Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David
Windsor (Edward VIII) gets a mention on May 10; but
mercifully abdicated to marry Wallis Simpson on Dec 11, otherwise Britain would
