My summary: In a country with high unemployment, a political party ran on stopping illegal immigration. A suspected party sympathizer kills a rapper, so the elected party leaders are arrested and disarmed.

Didn’t they arrest Hitler way back when? Only hastened his rise to power. Greece is on the brink, and has been for a while.

Seems the message here is... don’t kill an aspiring rapper.

Police had arrested the leader and more than a dozen senior members of the far-right leftist national socialist Golden Dawn party...

The leftist communists strike back in a squabble among socialists.

Greeks from the right need not apply....

Golden Dawn meets Hermann Goering’s definition of fascism: nationalism plus socialism.

“the party’s leader, spokesman, two other lawmakers and 10 members were arrested on charges of founding a criminal organisation”

Pavlos Fissas, who bled to death after being stabbed twice by a party sympathiser.

“Golden Dawn, which was officially recognized as a political party in 1993”

___________________________________________

They sure did wait a long time to decide it was a criminal organization. The rapper wasn’t even stabbed by the leadership.

I don’t agree with Golden Dawn but what happened to them doesn’t look good for other organizations. Government may suddenly decide they are criminal, too.

The Greeks do not have a long history with democracy and the two main parties in Greece are socialist and more socialist. Both are extremely corrupt. The people fed up with the system that had pillaged the country and allowed a flood of illegals (mostly Albanians) had no where else to turn.

Enter Golden Dawn. They blamed Greece's problems on immigration which is a very real issue that neither main party will address. Golden Dawn bludgeon them with it over and over again. Since the two main parties can't defend themselves on this issue Golden Dawn has attracted more and more support. People fed up with the corrupt system will reach a point where they want something different and they don't care what.

This almost came to pass in Italy where a comedian holds the largest voting block in the Chamber of Deputies. The two main parties put aside their differences to keep his party out of power, thus proving his point about them all being cronies.

Golden Dawn is similar to Nazi, or National Socialist Worker’s Party. In other words, it is NOT “far right” and has nothing to do with conservatism.

But I suspect that they are merely being used as propaganda fodder by the leftists who run things. Otherwise, not much difference between Communists and Nazis.

Nationalism is very bad and anti-Semetic. Unless you’re a Zionist of course.

I guess the Greek government is carrying out their orders via the Soviet Union style arrests . It’s amazing that Greek politicians would say that it was necessary to do a purge to “preserve democracy” - of people who were democratically elected. Internationalists have nothing good in store for us, and are enemies. I would hope that people who are gloating about this aren’t members of orgs like the NRA, who the same people oppose.
