Two Out of Five Austrians Think Things Weren't Bad Under Hitler
Three out of five Austrians want a "strong man" to lead the country, according to a new survey.
And two out of five think things were not all bad under Adolf Hitler. Timed to coincide with the 75th anniversary next week of Austria's annexation by Third Reich, the Market Institut poll for newspaper Der Standard found 61 percent of respondents, mostly the elderly, liked the idea of a strong man as leader. That was a higher total than in previous polls. One in 2008 found just one-fifth of Austrians could imagine having "a strong leader who does not have to worry about a parliament or elections."
Ritual Muti Killings is a Way of Life in Rural Areas of Black South Africa
One in five people in South Africa's rural areas has had first-hand experience of a human body part being trafficked after a muti killing.
And, of the body parts mentioned in their accounts, male genitals, breasts, hearts, fingers and tongues are the most commonly listed, according to research undertaken by the Human Rights League in Mozambique and supported by Childline in South Africa.

Joseph Kennedy: Hardcore Antisemite, Hitler Lover
Arriving at London in early 1938, newly-appointed U.S. Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy took up quickly with another transplanted American.
Viscountess Nancy Witcher Langhorne Astor assured Kennedy early in their friendship that he should not be put off by her pronounced and proud anti-Catholicism. “I’m glad you are smart enough not to take my [views] personally,” she wrote. Astor pointed out that she had a number of Roman Catholic friends – G.K. Chesterton among them – with whom she shared, if nothing else, a profound hatred for the Jewish race.

Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Saturday said "Europe had to decide between democracy and extreme right populist forces" spearheaded by France's Front National party in dealing with the economic crisis.

"Former Republics of the USSR are on their Way to a Nazi Revival", Says Influential Zionist Group
Efraim Zuroff (Simon Wiesenthal Center) - IB Times:
The torchlight parade held by nationalists in the Estonian capital reminded the Russians covering the event of similar spectacles in the 3rd Reich,
but this was more wishful thinking on their part than actual reality. They were out in full force this past Tuesday night, but unfortunately, they were the only foreign television journalists covering the event, with not a single representative of any European Union member country's media in attendance.
The Dark Side of the "Liberation of Europe"
US soldiers who fought in World War II have commonly been depicted as honorable citizen warriors from the "Greatest Generation."
But a new book uncovers the dark side of some GIs in liberated France, where robbing, raping and whoring were rife. The liberators made a lot of noise and drank too much. They raced around in their jeeps, fought in the streets and stole. But the worst thing was their obsession with French women. They wanted sex -- some for free, some for money and some by force.

Xenophobia Rising: Rome Removes Africans from Refugee Centre Besieged by Nationalists
Authorities in Rome have removed the last remaining asylum-seekers from a centre that was repeatedly attacked by angry local residents in incidents that were seen as a benchmark of rising xenophobia.
Around 40 immigrants had remained in the Tor Sapienza residence on the rundown eastern outskirts of Rome until earlier this week. But after garbage containers outside the centre were set on fire, it was decided the occupants should be moved for their own safety.

Switzerland’s Supreme Court: Giving a National Socialist Salute is not a Criminal Act
A decision by Switzerland’s supreme court that giving a NS salute may not always be a criminal act is being met with zionist concern inside and outside the country’s borders.
The ruling made public by the Lausanne-based court involved a man who made the gesture at a rally of nationalists in the canton of Uri on August 8th 2010. The court ruled on appeal that making a “Hitler salute” — lifting an arm up into the air at an angle of 45 degrees with a straight hand — is not punishable unless the person involved is proven to be “spreading racist ideology”.

An Israeli traveling in Bulgaria was "shocked" to find mugs carrying the picture of Adolf Hitler and decorated with swastikas in a souvenir shop in a ski resort.
