German police have arrested 110 people at a march to commemorate the death of Adolf Hitler's deputy, Rudolf Hess.

Some 74 of those detained belonged to a Neo-Nazi movement and were held for displaying banned Nazi symbols and carrying weapons, police said.

About 500 people, including the local mayor, held a counter-demonstration against the march in Wunsiedel, the border town where Hess is buried.

Hess died in 1987 aged 93 after more than four decades as a prisoner.

At least 3,000 right-wing extremists from Germany and abroad turned out for the march.

Nationalist sources are saying that at least 7,900 marched :)

What "Far Right Parties" exist in Germany now? I was under the impression that the NPD was outlawed. I'm not familiar with any similar parties that are legally recognized.

Was „Äußerste Richtige Parteien� die gesetzlich sind in Deutschland? Der NPD? Ich habe gedacht, daß sie entlassen wurden.

Uproar Over Social Welfare Cuts Is Bad Sign for Germany's Governing Party Heading Into State Elections

...Anger against reforms meant to revive Germany's lagging economy is rawest in the former communist east, where legions of people feel they never benefited from the arrival of capitalism and fear they will be disproportionately hit by the cuts. Nostalgia for the days when the dictatorship assured full employment and welfare benefits is running high in the region and far-right parties are picking up protest votes.

Many are 'Free Nationalisten'. They do NOT trust Stormfront I can tell you. Insular they are, but they have had to learn the 'hard way'.

To get up to and including 7,000 + at the Hess marches are tremendous.

I wish the BNP could turn out that sort of number on demos.

Hey Nick. Good reliable updates on Germany can be found at www.zundlesite.com. The website is run by Ingrid Zundle, wife of now imprisoned German-Canadian activist Ernst Zundle.

Thanks Glenn. I'll give it a look regularly.

There was 10,000 at the rally so stop trying to downplay things you zog agent

They tried to ban the NPD but because the German government forgot how many of 'their' plants had made it to the National Executive of the NPD the case fell apart.
