Bit of a strange one, but Robin van Persie has had to take to Twitter this morning to refute claims (largely from jilted Chelsea fans it has to be said) that he celebrated his second goal at Stamford Bridge with a ‘nazi salute’…

Just to play Devil’s advocate for a second, the thrusting of the arm into the air could be construed as a little bit ‘Hitler-y’ to the untrained eye, though Van Persie was quick to explain his actions, tweeting thusly:

“It has been brought to my attention of some ridiculous allegations concerning my celebration of one of my goals.

“It is totally ludicrous to suggest that my action of brushing my shoulder could be construed as anything else but a showing of joy and celebration.

“To suggest this meant anything to the contrary is insulting and absolutely absurd as nothing else came into my mind.”

You have to ask yourself: Assuming he has strong feelings either way, would a chap from Rotterdam really likely to be that keen on the Nazis considering they raized it to rubble once upon a time? It’s little details like that that seem to go amiss when these lofty judgements are made after 20 seconds of grainy Youtube video.

It’s all very reminiscent of the time Joey Barton was rabidly outed as a card-carrying SS stormtrooper when he celebrated a goal against Villa with a ‘moustache and extended arm’ gesture – which, of course, fizzled out into absolutely nothing once the good people of the internet stopped being such gormless dingbats and moved on to the next baseless, half-arsed witch hunt.

  4. MessiBalls says:

    Bollox. Who gives a fukk. He wasn’t doing a nazi salute. What in the name of God is wrong with the english media bringing this crap up?

    The racism stories have reared their ugly heads again and so far there has been very little wait behind them

    Please give us some hard evidence to support this shite and then we can deal with it and discuss it.

    How pathetic is this.

    Understand this, his wife is Morrocan/Dutch. Which makes his 2 children of a mixed heritage.

    Case closed. Trolls go back under your bridge (see what I did there lol)

  6. Sultan says:

    @ Thomas C.. hahaahhahahahahahahh !!!!

    English Media will make anything out of nothing….RVP I salute you for doing that..thank you !!

  7. Redskywalker says:

    Lol this is pathetic.

    Football fans are animals. yet they moan/bitch/whine about the silliest things.

  8. Lewis Fowler says:

    How ridiculous to make these allegations, i guess when you are on top everyone just wants to take a pop at you.
    RVP is class.

  9. :) says:

    @sultan – will you …nazi salute him for doing that?

  10. Hasselhof says:

    appears he was just brushing his shoulders off

  11. Sultan says:

    @ :) —- I salute him out of joy for scoring….plus how do you salute NAZI way, I really don’t have a clue :)

  12. RyanSSL says:

    His form is not as good as Di Canio or Zarate…

  13. Mr. Sparkle says:

    His wife’s heritage doesn’t stop him from being a racist, nor does it stop him from being a rapist.

  14. JJ says:

    Funny thing is that that is exactly the first thing that came to my mind as I watched him celebrate the goal. Can you imagine if Suarez did that.

  15. JJ says:

    Well I don’t know if it was a nazi salute, but he definitely has his nazi look going with his facial expression.

  16. […] a gif that makes it look pretty damning, via Who Ate All the Pies (which, by the way, considers the allegations […]

  17. mride says:

    Who made that .gif? Since the claims are clearly absolute unequivocal nonsense that only a person of dangerously sub-normal mental capability and knowledge would take seriously, and WAATP has derided them, why have they provided that neat yet totally misleading .gif for use by the idiots and the trolls? Since you know it’s toxic nonsense, why don’t you use your privileged position to stamp out the flames of absurd rumour and accusation instead of adding fuel to it?

  18. Redmanmars says:

    RVP doing a Nazi salute to celebrate a goal? What next? Adebayor donning a Klan mask after finding the net? Get a grip people.

  19. Ben says:

    @Mr. Sparkle GET LOST you troll.. those absurd claims were refuted many years ago but bitter fans of other clubs keep bringing that up. Why do you feel the need to accuse a man of being a rapist when he isn’t? How would you feel if someone did that to you?

    Grow up.. you have no class at all.

  20. Anabelle says:

    You’re ridiculous!

  21. Mr. Sparkle says:

    His arm is too stiff for it to be just a “dust off my shoulder’s thing”.

  22. Cunt says:

    just shows how awkward of a person he truly is. worst brushing of a shoulder ever.

  23. Charlie Adam says:

    Accused by Chelsea fans??? Hahaha! Aren’t they the ones who do Nazi salutes 4 realz?

  24. Mr. Sparkle says:

    @Ben.

    A shadow of doubt lingers none the less, do you really know what happened?

    Besides it wouldn’t be the first time someone who was accused of such a crime got away with it. Kobe Bryant, R. Kelly, Strauss Kahn, Roman Polanski, their’s a boat-load more of these rich men who got away with it and their accusers vanished with all the extra cash they received as a result of being paid off.

  25. Patrick says:

    Oh yes, Mr. Sparkle, it’s all just a big Nazi conspiracy! Call in Indiana Jones! There be Nazis about everywhere!

    And, for the doubters, next time you go about scoring a goal in a big game vs. Chelsea and your pulled a million different ways at once as you try to celebrate, I’ll listen to your insightful comments.

  26. Mr. Sparkle says:

    Their’s hundred different ways you can celebrate, pointing your arm stiffly at the crowd isn’t ever going to be a good idea. Whether or not he was giving the Nazi salute is inconsequential, one thing is certain. van Persie is an idiot for not thinking this one through.

      “Chamberlain (speaking off the record to Ambassador Joseph Kennedy while playing golf) stated that America and the world Jews had forced England into the war”. -The Forrestal Diaries ed. Millis, Cassell 1952 p129

      Poor Unjolly Old England. It wasn’t all that long ago that this island seat of a vast global empire — upon which “the sun never set” — for all its heavy handedness and exploitation — brought stability, civilization and progress to much of the Turd World. But today, the conquerer is now the conquered — a pathetic captive province of the communistic European Union (3 & 1/2 bloody long years since the “Brexit” vote and still no escape!) mired in moral degeneracy, weighed down with crushing levels of debt; taxation and regulation: and, as a result, plagued with deepening poverty rates for many of its Aryan natives.

      Of course, the article describes the deepening despair of the featured English townspeople as the result of “austerity” budget cuts put in place by England’s “Conservative” Party. But a close reading between the lines of this sad story about the sad lives of the mostly older rural residents of the northwest county of Cumbria offers us a hint of the related true “root causes” ™ of the decline of Cumbria and greater England as a whole, namely, an aging population (due to decades of low birth rates) and no jobs — the standard rotten social and economic fruits of Marxism / libtardism.

      More and more, modern England, much like the rest of the dying West, is beginning to resemble the England of George Orwell’s “Oceania” from his classic 1949 novel titled, “1984.” Orwell’s nightmarish vision of the future depicts a sick society in which the ruling elites acclimate the impoverished masses (“proles”) to their wretched state by the deliberate promotion of immorality, alcoholism and unremitting propaganda. Orwell’s spooky foresight was either one of great intuition — or, perhaps, he knew the playbook in advance? At a time when the English were still famed for being “prim and proper” — Orwell, in Part 1, Chapter 7, prophesied the following for how the “proles” of “Oceania” would be dumbed-down, demoralized and controlled.

      “Left to themselves, like cattle turned loose upon the plains of Argentina, they (the proles) had reverted to a style of life that appeared to be natural to them, a sort of ancestral pattern… They were born, they grew up in the gutters… petty quarrels with neighbours, films, football, beer, and above all, gambling, filled up the horizon of their minds.

      To keep them in control was not difficult. A few agents of the Thought Police moved always among them, … marking down and eliminating the few individuals who were judged capable of becoming dangerous; but no attempt was made to indoctrinate them with the ideology of the Party. It was not desirable that the proles should have strong political feelings. All that was required of them was a primitive patriotism which could be appealed to whenever it was necessary.

      And even when they became discontented, as they sometimes did, their discontent led nowhere, because being without general ideas, they could only focus it on petty specific grievances. The larger evils invariably escaped their notice. …. Even the civil police interfered with them very little. There was a vast amount of criminality in London, a whole world-within-a-world of thieves, bandits, prostitutes, drug-peddlers, and racketeers of every description; but since it all happened among the proles themselves, it was of no importance. In all questions of morals they were allowed to follow their ancestral code.”

      Mr. Orwell nailed it, didn’t he?

      No analysis of the sorry state of Not-So-Great Britain is complete without again revisiting one of the main historical themes of TomatoBubble.com — World War II, aka “The Bad War.” You see, by being on the “winning” side of an expensive and bloody conflict imposed upon innocent Germany by the Jewish bankers and their worldwide henchmen (Churchill being foremost among them) — Britain, by design, soon found itself broke and internationalized under the oppressive leftist yoke of a regionalized tyranny which later became the European Union.

      Ironically, it was The Great One (that’s Hitler for all you newbies & normies https://nationalvanguard.org/2019/05/sweden-local-activists-celebrate-adolf-hitlers-birth/#comment-27216 ) who stood firmly in opposition to this Globalist scheme. And that is why, in spite of his repeated and sincere offers of peace, friendship and even a protective alliance with the UK, the traitors of Britain — that drunken, closet homo-pedo-sexual swine Churchill first and foremost among them — in service to the true masters (cough cough), drove the British Empire into war, bankruptcy, dissolution and slavery.

      Let’s allow the great protagonists, The Great One and The British Mad Dog, to confirm this historical reality in their own respective words:

      The Great One (1940):

      “Yes, the German people used to live in a democracy, and had been plundered and squeezed dry. No, what does democracy or authoritarian state mean for these international hyenas? They’re not interested in either! They are interested in only one thing: Is anyone willing to let themselves be plundered, yes or no? Is anyone stupid enough to keep quiet in the process, yes or no? And when a democracy is stupid enough to keep quiet, then it is good! And when an authoritarian government declares: “You do not plunder our people any longer, neither from the inside or outside!” then that is bad.”

      The British Mad Dog (1949, same year as Orwell’s book):

      “We must recreate the European family in a regional structure called it may be the United States of Europe. … If at first, all the states of Europe are not willing or able to join the union, we must nevertheless proceed assemble and combine those who will and those who can. …. “This indispensable structure of regional groupings is coming into being. … In this way alone, can the skeletal structure of world government be clothed with the flesh and blood of a living organism and the acts of state be confirmed by the passionate heartbeats of millions of men.”

      Unfortunately, the “international hyenas,” which The Great One warned about and fought against, ultimately prevailed in that horrible war — and that, dear reader, is why the people of Cumbria County, England are suffering today. And it is also why “The Bad War” (by yours truly) and The British Mad Dog (also by yours truly) were both banned by Amazon after several years of strong sales.

      During World War II, the great American poet and “traitor,” Ezra Pound, then based in Italy, issued a warning the British:

      “Your enemy is not Germany, your enemy is money on loan. Your infamy is bound up with Judaea. You can not touch a sore or a shame in your empire but you find a Mond, a Sassoon, or a Goldsmid. No Sassoon is an Englishman, racially. No Rothschild is English, no Strakosch is English, no Roosevelt is English, no Morgenthau, Cohen, Lehman, Warburg, Kuhn, Khan, Baruch, Schiff, Sieff or Solomon was ever yet born Anglo-Saxon. And it is for this filth that you fight. It is for this filth that you have murdered your empire.”

      After the war, the American government kept Pound in a mental institution for 12 years.

    The Allied victory marked the beginning of the end of Western Civilization . For six years, the world thought to fight for the flag of freedom and democracy that the allied countries raised in the name of Poland. But when the victory was consummated, whole countries, including Poland itself, lost their sovereignty under the inexplicable spell of a victory whose disaster few people could have foreseen .

    With regard to the HOLOCAUST, it is urgent to highlight them – the real ones – the Germans and Japanese and all those who have lost their lives fighting this anti-Christian, genocidal and slavery ideology COMMUNISM. It is not enough to rely only on allegations because every charge is without concrete evidence denigration
