They harassed immigrant minors and Pablo Iglesias, among others. They had 200 members and were the first Spanish Nazi group with a significant presence of women.
They were born in Madrid with the coronavirus in 2020. They attacked immigrant minors and made an escrache to Pablo Iglesias. Front Bastion, who defined themselves as “social patriots”, had become in these two years the main Spanish group of neo-Nazi ideology, the first with important women’s participation. Most of its members were young people between 15 and 25 years old who live with their parents.
After several internal struggles, including a beating with a broken jaw of a militant, and several police coups, the Spanish neo-Nazis have decided to dissolve their last mask. They did it, as CASO ABIERTO, an investigation and events channel of Prensa Ibérica, has learned, through a whatsapp message to the group of neo-Nazis on September 15.
No money or people
In the message, the spokesman for the neo-Nazi group announces that “Front Bastion is dissolved” and explains the reasons: “There are no people or money to pay for the premises” in Madrid where they were installed. Therefore, the far-right group is “dissolved and disconnected”. Although, yes, the spokesman who announces the death of the group does not lose hope that “in the future” can “resurge” with another name.
Heirs of Hogar Social Madrid, another ultra group, Bastión Frontal had spread to different parts of Spain such as Castilla-La Mancha, Extremadura, Valencia, Zaragoza and Seville.
His baptism of fire took place on October 13, 2020, when They tried to make a hunting of Moroccan immigrant minors in the neighborhood of San Blas to those who falsely attributed the rape of a young woman from the neighborhood. On the afternoon of October 14, a mob of Nazis came under their houses shouting “Not a Mena in our neighborhoods” and “Don’t look at us, throw yourself.”
Two media leaders
Its rapid growth was possible thanks, among other reasons, to the media figures of two of its leaders, Rodrigo Miguelez and Isabel Peraltaa young ex-Falangist who became famous for a speech against the Jews during a tribute to the Blue Division in Madrid.
Both Peralta and Miguélez had already left the organization this year. She was held at the Frankfurt airport (Germany) and expelled back to Spain last March, when she tried to enter that country with Nazi material in her suitcase. Months earlier, in January, he was arrested and imprisoned after giving a brutal beating of a Catalan neo-Nazi during a meeting of the ultras in Valencia. Precisely Catalonia was the last attempt of Front Bastion to grow and survive, but they failed to settle there.
