One more question.

Would those non-Muslim anti-Semites reside in the former GDR (East Germany).

That was the first question that came to me when I first read this. In the DDR, the Hitler era was the "good old days."

Otherwise, I would assume that anti-Semites would be Germans with names like Mehmet Ertegun or Ahmed Eroğlu.

I remember hearing in the 90s about all the neo-Nazi trouble going on in the former DDR, so that is a good question.

However, Konrad Adenauer did put a lot of “former” Nazis to work in the BRD’s government and industries (one and the same to a great degree what with the immediate establishment of the “social market economy” after the war) and the incomprehensible move after a scant two years by the USA (in 1947) to hand over de-Nazification to Adenauer too (which he declared “over” three years after that). And of course there were people like Willy Brandt who were a bit too close to the eastern bloc for even the Bonn government’s comfort.
