EUROPE - RIGHT-WING REVIVAL

There's a lot of Sieg Heiling going on in Europe right now. This weekend the German town of Jena hosted the 3rd annual Fest der Völker (Festival of the People), a time for racists to kick back, eat sausages and have one-sided, nonsensical political debates. In Austria some soldiers got busted with a video of themselves goose-stepping and doing the Nazi salute…

Even the Swiss decided to join the fray, when the right-wing political party SVP came under fire for one of their campaign posters depicting 3 white sheep giving the boot to a black one. Finally, on the opposite end of the political spectrum, German minorities spoke out against the law forbidding dual citizenships by portraying Angela Merkel as Hitler in the daily paper.
