Description | “THE NEO-NAZI SCENE IN GERMANY is growing at an alarming rate and becoming stronger,” reported Der Spiegel on March 19, 2009. Thus, because of the rise of neo-nazism in Germany, fear and much consternation is mounting amongst the European Jewish community regarding the rise of Neo-Nazi Youth groups.
Analysts of right extremism have warned that Germany’s Neo-Nazi scene is growing and becoming more dangerous. A major study of teenager’s attitudes published recently showed far-right attitudes were widespread among German youth. A former senior official of the Neo-Nazi movement in Germany said in a recent interview that German youth join the Neo-Nazi movement because they “want to do something for Germany.”
In an article published by the European Jewish Press on March 31, 2009, entitled, Germany Bans Neo-Nazi Youth Group, the German Jewish community applauded, (yet remains pensive), of the government’s outlawing of a Neo-Nazi group that ran Hitler Youth-style camps teaching German children as young as six years old that “Jews were a threat to the German nation.”
