German neo-Nazi terror cell linked to 10 murders

[Penguin]

Berlin (CNN) -- Two suspects believed to be members of a neo-Nazi terror cell involved in killing at least 10 people, mostly of Turkish and Greek origin, have been arrested, German prosecutors said.

In a video which they apparently planned to send to German media outlets, the alleged terrorists claim to have killed eight ethnic Turks, one ethnic Greek and a police officer from 2000 to 2007, prosecutors said.
The attacks occurred all over Germany and became known the "Doener Murder Series." Until the arrests, police had not thought they were committed by the same people.

The German magazine Der Spiegel reports that the right-wing extremists also claim in the video to be responsible for several bank robberies and a nail-bomb attack in Cologne in 2004, which hit a street with mostly Turkish and Kurdish residents.

edit: damn, I can't change the headline, copied it from CNN, but find it a little too sensational and I don't like the word neo-Nazis, those guys are Nazis, you don't differ between neo-Commies and Commies either
