2. Looks like NDP is a neo-Nazi group

This gives an idea of their ideology:
From Wikipedia

Statements on the election of Barack Obama
In November 2008, shortly after the 2008 United States Presidential Election, the NPD published a document entitled "Africa conquers the White House" which stated that the election of Barack Obama as the first African-American President of the United States was the result of "the American alliance of Jews and Negroes" and that Obama aimed to destroy the United States' "white identity." The NPD claimed that "A non-white America is a declaration of war on all people who believe an organically grown social order based on language and culture, history and heritage to be the essence of humanity" and that "Barack Obama hides this declaration of war behind his pushy sunshine smile." The NPD also stated that the extensive support for Obama in Germany "resembles an African tropical disease."

3. They sure are,

although they can't show it really how they would like to show it. But yes, neo-Nazis. And it's not only a group, it's an official party.

4. Glad to see a strong response against the rabid right over there.

Senior politicians have called for the NPD to be banned, after an attempt to do so in 2003 failed when it was revealed that large numbers of the party's inner circle were actually undercover government agents or informants.

Wish our GOP leaders were speaking out against our own rabid right wing, rather than attending their rallies and praising them.

5. This sounds very very familiar:

Senior politicians have called for the NPD to be banned, after an attempt to do so in 2003 failed when it was revealed that large numbers of the party's inner circle were actually undercover government agents or informants.


Remember how the FBI used to ( still does, I think ) infiltrate "hate groups" then incite the groups to illegal behavior?
Which was used by politicians to ban demonstrations?
