People like this are why, at root, this Jew owns firearms. Yeah, they are few, they are nuts, they are highly unlikely to gain any power and they are far away...and so were their political idols. Never Again!...but if again, not for free. Molon Labe!
I have found the German version of this but it wasn't a big fish in the net, only 2 sources, one of which called the Nazis 'unknown offenders'. The other has a decent report and some words from the mayor of the village. I'll try to translate this version:
Pretzien/Berlin - It is now 20 years since Uwe Homburg became a public prosecutor, but never before has a case frightened him so much. "I cannot remember to have ever witnessed something like this" he tells the Tagesspiegel on Monday. Yet no one had been injured or even killed in the village of Pretzien southeast of Magdeburg. But right wing extremists took the liberty of a provocation that doesn't only frighten the prosecutor. Some time around 10 pm, about 100 apparently unsuspecting villagers and guests of a dance witnessed a re-enactment of a 1933 nazi book burning. Into the flames the right extremist first threw a US flag, then a book. Not some book - it was the world renown Diary of Anne Frank.
The work of a jewish girl that vainly tried to hide before the nazi myrmidons (? DE: Schergen) and died in the KS Bergen Belsen vanished in the flames. An eye witness told the "Magdeburger Volksstimme" that the book had been tattered. The right extremists had played football with it before the burning. When the book burned, the public order office worker intervened and stopped the "Sonnwendfest" (old german ritual, not exclusively celebrated by Nazis today, but excessively used by Hitler).
Now disgust can be heard in Sachsen-Anhalt and beyond. The Bundesland's interior minister Holger Hövelmann (SPD) called the burning an "attack on the human culture" in an interview with the MDR (public television) on saturday. On Friday, director of the Anne Frank center in Berlin Andreas Heppener had called it "monstrous" and pressed charges. At the same time the officials of the Linkspartei/PDS in Sachsen-Anhalt declared that they saw "a grave sign of danger for the civil society in our land". The story hits the party hard - Pretziens mayor Friedrich Harwig, who joined the SED 48 years ago and stayed a loyal PDS comrade after the fall of the wall, was a witness when Anne Franks diary was consumed by the flames.
"Something like that happens because in our land we have not overcome our past" Hartwig tells the Tagesspiegel. The mayor takes a breath: "and because we can't deal with our present time". Harwig assures he had "worked" with the young right wing extremists for years to dissuade them from their ideology. The mayor tried a change through neighborhood. Harwig participated in the Pretzien society "Heimatbund Ostelbien". The board was dominated by an ex-NPD member who invited him to the "Sonnwendfest". Now Harwig says he has suffered a setback - together with a loss of his political home.
In their statement, Linkspartei/PDS officials demanded Harwig to exit the party. "I did that." he says. He would only give up the mayor post mayor post on demand of the citizens of Pretzien, but they stood behind him. The "Heimatbund" dissolved on Saturday. Public prosecution department and police progress slowly with their inquiry. A speaker of the police authority in Magdeburg says: "In Pretzien, they battened down the hatches"
There are probably lots of mistakes, so if something is unclear or needs a background information, just ask.
