Edward S. May is a director of the Center for Vigilant Freedom (CVF). He is also the Outreach Coordinator for the International Free Press Society[1], using Ned May as his alias. Under the pseudonym, Baron Bodissey, May runs the Gates of Vienna[2] blog which, along The Brussels Journal blog (run by fellow IFPS director Paul Belien), serves as the CounterJihad Europa website's blog and news services.

Identity

May uses unspiek@chromatism.net as the email address on his Gates of Vienna blog[3]. This domain was purchased by Edward S. May from a local Internet provider in Virginia, US, in 2001[4].

"The mailing list for the 2007 Counterjihad Conference in Brussels lists as organiser: "Ned May (Baron Bodissey)" - and also gives his e-mail address as unspiek@chromatism.net. The website chromatism.net itself gives the owner's name and address as: Edward S. May."[5]

Gates of Vienna blog

The first entry on the Gates of Vienna blog was a post by Baron Bodissey on 9 October 2004. It claimed that the "Global War on Terror" should be seen as "GIJ3W: The Great Islamic Jihad, Third Wave":

The thesis of this blog is that, like it or not, we are in a religious war. We do not define the terms but we should take careful note of them. We are mistaken if we think the Enemy wants merely to kill us. Once again, Jihad offers two choices to the West: conversion or death. Jihad exists in order to annihilate unbelief. Christians, Jews, Hindus, atheists, or Wiccans, it is all the same to him.[6]

Counterjihad summits

May helped organize the first UK and Scandinavia CounterJihad Summit, the 2007 CounterJihad Brussels conference, the smaller CounterJihad Vienna 2008 and the CounterJihad 2009 meeting, which according to May, could be the last of his CounterJihad organising.

"Given my imminent unemployment and reduced circumstances, Counterjihad Copenhagen 2009 will likely be my last such event for the foreseeable future"[7]
