For those of you who think that Fascism is not on the way back in Europe

You have to be able to speak German to read this:

That someone with Jewish roots should be thrown out of his party because of them - thought that this thinking disappeared in 1945? Think again! This party is also into the persecution of the Roma people of Hungary - in a big way.

Interestingly though they describe themselves as merely "conservative and patriotic"! Now where have I heard that phrase before????

Also fascinating is the number of advocates of this thinking direct from the political cess-pit who have spent time in jail (the same can be said about the ethnic European converts to extreme versions of Islam! Another form of Fascism).

The lessons of the 1930s should be clear and obvious though. Fascism grew out of a vacuum when orthodox political and economic thinking failed and unemployment and poverty became rife. That vacuum needs to be closed again, and quickly, before we get a repeat of the events of the 1930s. It is no time for complacency and no time for shrugging our shoulders and saying nothing can be done!
