And today?

Unfortunately there is also today still trailer of Hitler's ideologies (right-wing extremists and neo-Nazis). Gladly they would turn back the wheel of history. The new Nazis want to instigate humans again against each other! They demonstrate for a "reinrassiges" Germany! All, which do not have "German" blood in the veins, want to drive it out from this country!
