Two extremists charged, neo-Nazi ideologue Filip Vávra allegedly one of them

by

The Nova television channel and its online news server tn.cz report that police have charged two men with promoting extremism, one of whom is allegedly Filip Vávra. Previous media investigations have fingered Vávra as being behind the creation of the neo-Nazi National Resistance group and connected to the international neo-Nazi organization Blood and Honor in the past. Nova reports that police have charged Vávra with the crime of inciting hatred or suppression of the human rights and freedoms of a particular group. The charges are allegedly related to the distribution of materials with neo-Nazi subject matter. Police are refusing to reveal any further information about the case. Pavel Hanták, spokesperson for the Organized Crime Detection Unit (Útvar pro odhalování organizovaného zločinu – ÚOOZ) only made a general statement to the television channel that police had charged two men. “Two more people have been charged as part of the Lott case, both men,” Hanták told iDNES.cz, adding that a significant advance in the case occurred about a month ago. Nova reported that police have been following Vávra for some time. He has declined to comment. Vávra was behind an invitation extended last year to former Ku-Klux-Klan leader David Duke, whose visit to the Czech Republic ended in his detention and deportation. Police charged him with denying the Holocaust in his book “My Awakening”, which has come out in Czech translation. His prosecution was later halted.

Bomb explodes near synagogue in Russia

by

A homemade bomb that exploded outside a Russian synagogue caused damage to the synagogue and a neighboring house. No one was injured in the explosion early Monday morning in the town of Tver, about 140 miles northwest of Moscow. The blast left a gaping hole in the synagogue door, damaged the iron fence of the building and knocked out several windows in the house. Property damage was estimated at $5,000. Police officials have characterized the incident as “malicious hooliganism”; a criminal investigation has been opened though no suspects have been identified. Anti-terrorism experts from the Moscow office of the Federal Security Service have been called to Tver to take part in the investigation. The head of the Tver city administration, Vladimir Babichev, suggested that the explosion could be connected to a series of vandalism incidents at the town’s Jewish cemetery. A group of extremists from the Russian National Unity movement was arrested in 2006 after vandalizing about 200 Jewish gravestones with swastikas. Several more incidents have occurred since then at the cemetery, but no one has been charged.

Russia marks the Day of Memory and Grief this Tuesday. It was instituted by the Russian president’s decree of June 8, 1996 and is marked on the day of starting the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) of Soviet people against Nazi invaders. At the dawn of June 22, 1941, fascist Germany treacherously attacked the Soviet Union. Its aviation made massive strikes on airfields, railway hubs, naval bases, barracks of military units and numerous cities to a depth of 250-300 kilometres from the state border. Italy, Hungary, Finland and Romania also joined the war against the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union suffered the greatest human losses in the Second World War, Itar-Tass learnt from chief of the department of the Russian Defence Ministry on immortalising the memory of the fallen in defence of the Fatherland Alexander Kirillin. “The total losses of the USSR in the Great Patriotic War that lasted 1,418 days and nights, amounted to 26,600,000 people, among the military – 8,668,400 men and officers, including losses of the army and navy – 8,509,300, border troops – 614,000 and interior troops of the Interior Ministry – 97,700 men.” As many as 6.5 million people died in battles.

Patrik Brinkmann verliert den Spaß an „pro“

by

Patrik Brinkmann hat womöglich schneller als erwartet seinen Spaß an „pro Deutschland“ und „pro NRW“ verloren. Eigentlich wollte sich der schwedische Unternehmer beim für Mitte Juli geplanten Bundesparteitag von „pro Deutschland“ zum neuen Vorsitzenden wählen lassen. Doch eine heute von der extrem rechten Internetplattform „Gesamtrechts“ veröffentlichte Erklärung Brinkmanns legt den Schluss nahe, dass daraus nichts wird. „Es hat sich in den letzten Tagen und Wochen gezeigt, dass pro Deutschland sich nicht so entwickeln wird, wie ich das ursprünglich gedacht hatte“, wird Brinkmann zitiert. Nach dem Abkommen zwischen dem „pro Deutschland“-Vorsitzenden Manfred Rouhs und dem „pro NRW“-Chef Markus Beisicht * würden sich die „pro“-Gruppen zwar besser koordinieren können, was grundsätzlich zu begrüßen sei, so Brinkmann. „Gleichzeitig zeigt sich aber, dass damit kein wirklicher Neuanfang auf bundespolitischer Ebene gewagt worden ist.“ Dieser sei aber „nach dem langsamen Sterben der Republikaner dringend notwendig“.

Neonazis werfen Stein in Linkspartei-Büro

„Kristallnacht bei der Linkspartei“ überschreibt die Neonazi-„Kameradschaft Hamm“ einen Internetartikel, in dem über ein eingeschlagenes Fenster des örtlichen Linkspartei-Büros berichtet wird. In der Nacht vom 18. auf den 19. Juni wurde ein Stein gegen das Schaufenster geworfen. Die Täter hinterließen außerdem zwei NPD-Aufkleber auf der beschädigten Scheibe. Die Polizei habe die Sachbeschädigung aufgenommen, heißt es beim Linke-Kreisverband Hamm. In den Pressemitteilungen der Polizei findet der Vorfall keine Erwähnung, auch die örtliche Tageszeitung möchte nicht berichten. „Von der Redaktion wurde uns mitgeteilt, dass man an einer Veröffentlichung solcher Geschehnisse nicht interessiert sei, um keine Nachahmungen zu animieren“, teilte ein Mitglied des antifaschistischen Bündnisses „Hamm stellt sich quer“ mit*.
