Based in german city of dresden has become a node in recent years for anti muslim protests and xenophobia this week the city Council Passed a resolution stating that it was dealing with what it called a nazi emergency it was proposed by a member of a Satirical Party but what is a serious Political Initiative or a symbolic stunt dresden capital of the state of saxony is famous for its cultural attractions but the city is also known for images like this you see i believe a far right racist Organization Called piggy has held protests here for the past 5 years attacks on foreigners and a mosque have prompted the debate about a socalled nazi emergency a satirical Political Group called simply the party has filed an official motion with the city council to address the situation. The politics is televisions every few years to address this problem even though theyve known for years that it cant be denied. We say down with right wing extremist ideas we wont talk to nazi i say this but thats out of the question. The initiative has been controversial in the City Council Many members agree with the motions intent but not the way it was formulated. Only after the document was completely rewritten was accepted by a majority of Political Parties in the council but the heading nazi emergency with a question mark could not be changed for legal reasons. Its provocative but our committee does take a clear stand to support people who are against racism and antisemitism we dont want these far right agitators in our city anymore. One approach is for Civil Society to tackle the causes of far right thinking for the center right christian democrats declaring a nazi emergency is just a symbolic act as a. Really have something undesirable here. These protests come from the far right fringe and have an extremist background its the mystery. That concerns us. And this one has a ton of approved by the city council isnt going to chant anything. Not based on the.

The german man was stabbed allegedly by immigrants and so the the the problem is much bigger than that and dressed in in saxony and you know this whole but particularly saxon hazard is gravitation as i said for for moving hot the threat stream of them and so.
