Here.
Frankfurt, 80 km (50 miles) east of Berlin on the Oder river, is in Brandenburg, one of three ex-communist states where far-right parties won enough votes for state parliament seats.
The federal government has called a rise in anti-Semitic violence worrying. Police said last month attacks by far-right groups rose 20 percent in the first eight months of 2006.
In July, extremists in the neighbouring state of Saxony-Anhalt burned the diary of Holocaust victim Anne Frank.
In another incident, teens in the same state last month forced a 16-year-old classmate to parade round school wearing a sign with an anti-Semitic Nazi-era slogan.
: And looky here! The Neo-Nazis are wearing, what’s this? Palestinian scarves. Do you see how the future is looking?
One thing it seems everyone can agree on: It’s the Jews fault.
Every fascist movement needs a devil. For some reason, probably the trend to be successful no matter where they are, the Jews keep getting elected to the position.
Almost as good as evangelical support for Israel. The neo nazis probably don’t think the palestinean are all going to die before they get saved.
It is interesting that all totalitarian movements target Jews, like our resident trolls do. Almost enough to make one wonder about that Old Testament stuff.
After all the prep work done by their ancestors, most European countries have ensured that their Jewish populations are quite small. But, then Jews usually don’t fight back. And even when they do, they feel bad about it.
Really?
The Conspiracy is a near-universal delusion among schizophrenics, and crazy assholes have been trying to kill us all forever (mundane origin of “that Old Testament stuff,” perhaps). It seems like hating Jews is a (part of a) fundamental delusional/sadistic/[…] pathology…or a broken vestigial evolutionary strategy, like a psychic appendicitis…or something.
Presuming it is, whatever it is, symptoms of it, like becoming a Nazi or a jihadi or a Kos diarist, would be socio-etc. contingencies, like accented speech. And the Strangeness of all those Bedfellowsâ€â€everâ€â€would vanish.
Or, maybe, really, we should all be killed.
[Self-hating Akiba-in-the-butcher-shop exegesis goes here.]
Denying the Holocaust has always been and will always be dependent on whether or not having a Holocaust is a good idea. After all, for a Holocaust to occur, all the Jews must die. Thus, there has been no Holocaust. Jews with pulses = No Holocaust. Only Nazis believe in this, right?
The fashion is mere coincidence. Palestinian scarves just happen to hide their retched faces better than those miniature mustaches.
Strange bedfellows, pshaw!
