The trial of a neonazi group set to start today in Munich threatens to turn into a trial of the Chancellor Merkel’s government itself.
During a ten years long raid the so-called National Socialist Underground assassinated ten people (mostly Turkish immigrants) without being investigated by the German police in spite of a number of clues pointing to the group whose activities were not ignored. In a clear case of biased preferences the officials rested in the comfortable suspicion of “Turkish mafia revenges”.
Apologies already issued by Angela Merkel hardly can hide the fact that neonazi organizations have been tolerated by a lazy Police and a lenient Judicial system. Nothing to wonder about coming from a conservative government who shows no mercy towards entire people, like the Greeks, which has been pressed to buy insane amounts of arms (even submarines) from Germany and then accused of being irresponsible spenders. Capitalism at its best.

I still remember when we were both on Blogsome.
In December 2011, I had to move from Blogsome as it was closing down. So, I was surprised to still see your Blogsome blog. Why could it stay?
All my best wishes, petrel41

Hi, Dear Kitty,
What a nice surprise! I feel proud and grateful of being chosen by you. Regrettably, I’m afraid I can’t follow the chain as I kept the Blogsome address just as a mirror (it does well in Google searches) while I moved here for English and to Blogger for Spanish.
Yours is the first notice I received of Blogsome.com closing. I never saw a warning of this, but now, after a brief search, I realized some others did and some not. Anyway, I decided my migration back in 2009, just in case, as a prevention because of the current European crisis.
I’m glad you contacted me and I hope you’ll be as successful in WordPress as before. I already added you to my blogroll.
My best.

Hi Bob, thank you for your kind reaction, and for including my blog in your blogroll!
I will add you to my neglected blogroll as well, under Visual arts.
We have discussed the Israeli Black Panthers years ago. Did you read about the Greek Black Panthers? See
