This Is Very Disturbing

currently on Channel 4, on the rise of far right groups,
the one showing just now was on an antisemetic, anti roma party
called Jobbik, from Hungary. They are third in the political polls in Hungary, so not a small party, nor are their ideologies far removed from Nazism, hatred of Jews, and the cleansing of the Roma people they call criminals. So whoever thought we had seen the back of this better think again. Our BNP are small beer in comparison. There are a lot more far right organisations like this across Europe.

confess they haven't shown up on my radar, but some others have,

It's what happens, em, when governments ignore the concerns of their electorates.

I confess i was open mouthed at some of the comments, not so much a real eye opener, but it was like watching a re run of old footage of Germans flinging bricks through shop windows, and scrawling Juden on them. Chilling.

maybe we should admit to ourselves the uk isnt that racist a country to live in?

Daffy that is horrible isn't it. Sometimes you wonder at people, but NJ you are so right on that score.

I made the mistake of stepping into 'the wrong pub' in Germany a few years ago. It was too late by the time I'd got through the front door; I'd committed myself!

Full of neo-nazi skinheads, all shaven heads, combat trousers. Iron cross flags all over the place; a real dive.

Being white & british they loved us, my mate's a Chelsea fan and they kept going on about British football firms. Scary place to be in. We had a couple of beers and left. It goes on over there, thats for sure.

i am no doom sayer, but i have seen this coming for a long while, i don't think it's really gone away from Europe, even though it's now very different from what it was like at the end of the war.

Is this a script from Dad's Army? Check out FC St. Pauli.

[emmie]

not sure what Dad's army have to do with this. Is that a funny, or just that you wanted to point to another Nazi group.

[emmie]

not sure if this is what you are talking about

[mushroom25]

wharton, not sure what your reference to FC St Pauli represents - they're more famous for left-leaning politics.

Please, can someone tell me why so many people hate the Jews? I really don't know, because I thought Jesus was king of the jews? and isn't most of the world christians? This is a question that has bothered me for years. just a plain simple answer please.

FC St. Pauli - First football team in Germany to ban right-wing (Nazi) activities. I wonder if any English team would have the balls to ban the EDL.

[emmie]

annie, no idea, i don't,

[daffy654]

I am disturbed by the extreme right wing sentiments that have been expressed in many places since the killing of Lee Rigby last week.

[emmie]

and i am also seriously disturbed that Muslim extremists in our midst like Anjem Choudary and his followers think this killing was justified.
