Neo-Nazis Reportedly Take Over East German Village

[Gerald]

Officials say neo-Nazis have taken over a village in east Germany, according to the Daily Telegraph.Residents of Jamel say their village has become a pilgrimage site for the extremists and the local mayor claims that authorities have given up trying to impose order on the town.

"The police, the authorities, no one dares to intervene. The Nazis are laughing in our faces. We've given up on Jamel," Mayor Uwe Wandel told the Daily Telegraph.

The paper reports that swastikas adorn houses across the village and a plaque at the entrance of town says, "Village of Jamel -- free, social, national."

These people aren't even close to Nazis. Everyone knows that Nazis conquer other countries' villages first, or petition for the return of Free Cities to the Reich. Failing that, they all become stereotyped Germans who die in droves in Hollywood movies.

I suggest that they should all be imprisoned until work sets them free.

Crappy news article. Why is Jamel a pilgrimage site? How did this happen? Who's in charge? Why haven't the police stopped this?

There is pretty much nothing about that in the German news.
If it's true they should send in a few hundred cops and restore order.

So you want to proof your first post, with the same news again. or am i getting something wrong?

By the way: I went on to the Daily telegraph Web Site and searched for the Article of Jamel which is Quoted as a source by Fox News and all i found was this:

By the way, why are not talking about the Swedisch Neo Nazi Scene, which is way more active then the German one.

Habs mal nachgegoogelt, da hat irgendein angeblich sehr bekannter Neo Nazi in diesem Ort Jamel ein paar Häuser und Grundstücke gekauft, mehr war da eigentlich bis jetzt noch nicht.
Und nachdem der Kauf eines Hauses keine Straftat ist, was sollte man dagegen dann auch machen?

Translation:
Did google the Story, there was a well known Neo Nazi who bought some Houses and the Land around it in the village and its surroundings. Since buying a house isnt a criminal act in Germany, what should be done against it?

Edit: The most actual German News about this whole thing is from February 2009

So basically the daily telegraphs is blowing things wildly out of proportion, who knew.

The village of Jamel is no unknown in German press and internet media - since years. It just does not get reported about every week.

16.08.2007 Der Spiegel

14.10.2003 Links lang Presseschau

11.08.2010 Blick nach Rechts

The latest edition of the printed Der Spiegel (1/2011) also has a report about Jamel, on page 40 (Allein unter Nazis).

There is no armed revolution, but the majority of the population is confessing to Nazism, and many non-Nazis have left the village. They hold Nazi events and praise the ways things have done by in the Third Reich.
