I’m a bit worried that this might backfire. It could make them into martyrs, spurring even greater support. Add in the fact that the Greek police seem to be strong supporters of the Dawn, and well, this could end badly. They say that the Dawn’s leader has been imprisoned. Let us hope he doesn’t decide to write a book while behind bars.
That said, I’m also wondering what charges were being brought. The Dawn are scum - calling them Nazis is justified - this isn’t standard European political name calling, where anyone to the right of Trotsky is called a fascist. Are they being arrested on conspiracy charges, due to that musician that was stabbed to death by a Dawn member last week?
The best way to deal with these types is to prevent them from growing in the first place.
Interestingly enough the last time the Klan had any real power in the USA was when ultra progressive Woodrow Wilson was president and the Klan was acting as his version of OFA
commie purge of fascists
