International Great Story About German Neo-Nazi Group

Posted by Charles Mudede on Thu, Nov 17, 2011 at 9:42 AM

World Socialist Web Site has the story:

The [Neo-Nazi group] was discovered after two men fled by bicycle during a bank robbery in the Thuringian town of Eisenach November 4. The two were revealed to be in a mobile home.
When police arrived, they found the dead bodies of Uwe Böhnhardt and Uwe Mundlos, aged 34 and 38, in the burned-out motor home. Both had been shot in the head. In the mobile home, police found the gun of the policewoman shot in 2007, pump-action guns, a submachine gun, a revolver, a pistol and a grenade.

You have to read the whole thing. It's fucking crazy.

A conspiracy by right wing thugs in government?!? What is happening in Germany? The victims and their families should hold the government financially culpable.

It's suggested there that the more public elements of the Neo-Nazi movement Germany have significant overlap with religious conservatives. That would make them closely analogous to our own militias, Timothy McVeigh, and the men recently arrested in Georgia.

I don't claim complete understanding of Christianity, but it certainly seems to me that they're doing it wrong.
