The far right and neo-Nazis – An increasing terrorist threat | DW Documentary

Across Europe, the next generation of white supremacists are being radicalized. They fantasize about an ethnically pure Europe and are taking action. The threat posed by the far-right network has never been as present as it is today.

In Germany, a far-right plan to overthrow the state was averted. In France, six men were arrested for plotting to attack politicians. In Bratislava, a student with links to the far right murdered two people outside an LGTB club. The film crew meets with some of the people who see themselves as ideological leaders of a racial war. The film investigates these white supremacists, and the threat they pose.

The filmmakers traveled to Wunsiedel, northern Bavaria. Here, a neo-Nazi political party, Dritte Weg, gathered to commemorate Adolf Hitler’s deputy, Rudolf Hess. Locals watched silently as the neo-Nazis march through the streets in a torchlit parade, carrying banners and banging on drums.
A team of journalists spent two years investigating semi-clandestine networks in France, Germany and Romania. They set up a fake profile on a French neo-Nazi forum. It’s one of many spreading hate online, and has over 3,600 members. There are also online dating sites exclusively for white people, celebrating ‘white life, white love’. Members trade in Nazi memorabilia. The camera team meets a man who served in the SS back in the Second World War. Shockingly, he still feels nostalgia for Nazi ideals.
A role-model for many of these ‘white warriors’ is Daniel Conversano, who left France for the ‘white land’ of Romania. Here, he formed a community. His followers include the convicted terrorist Login Nisin, who admitted to plotting to kill Christophe Castaner and Jean-Luc Melenchon. The team visited Conversano and his supporters in Bucharest. They questioned him about his racist views.
Many see the coming “racial civil war” as inevitable. Far-right extremists are now considered one of the biggest threats to democracy in Europe.

  3. Ich wohne in Russland, in der Stadt Kaluga (180 km von Moskau entfernt). Ich wurde von einem ehemaligen Nachbarn verfolgt, sein Nachname ist Gerasimov. Wie sich herausstellte, rekrutiert er Spezialdienste, rekrutiert Agenten, um im Westen zu arbeiten. Jetzt wollen nur wenige Menschen gehen, um als Agent im Westen zu arbeiten, also sind sie mit Pressing beschäftigt. Für ein Arbeitsjahr bieten sie 55000-60000 Dollar an. Arbeiten als Verdeckungsagent

  6. do please let me know what normal people think when so many terrorist attacks and aggressions happen and are committed on behalf of "other religious groups" and people who came from outside countries…do you seriously expect people to do nothing when others are murdered and raped on the streets of oslo, berlin and paris? and yet the authorities are "alarmed" by them BUT not by the ones who commit atrocities in the cities they moved in?

  8. Funny how the "far-Right" want to resist the reintroduction of all the Nazi policies the German state never abandoned.
    From banning smoking to turning Europe's population from Christian to Muslim.

  10. Our government aupport them. If this was a black group walking down the street the same way they wouldve had cops out there so tell me why they arent doing it here! Like i said blame your government!

  11. As a Jew, I worry zero about the "Far Right", or Neo-Nazis.

    It's the Leftists and radical Muslims that are a clear and present danger to me, my family,
    and to civilization.

  12. considering our Neo-Nazis storm the US Capitol, there's nothing left to criticize… so many mini wars going on, the states, the people, religions and this is one of the biggest election years for all countries….

  13. The same infiltration has been happening in the US for a long time with Republicans refusing to stop it.

  15. Are we also going to report the fear of antisemitism bringing Germany to opress any kind of support for the Gaza genocide by hands of the government of Israel?

  18. what do we expect, this is what happens when the far left dominates society.. wake up people we need to balance ourselves. and i don't mean "get woke"

  20. ANYBODY criticizing the far left is labeled nazi. Even immigrants who legally immigrate, embrace the country's value, contribute to it. They're putting everyone in the same basket.

  21. I don't know about Deutschland but I'd think twice about being messing around in France.

    They literally have the Foreign Legion filled with well-trained "inferior" people. The world is a different place since 1945.

  23. Their Racism is a pretty stupid idea when you realize that God made out of one man all nations to dwell upon the earth. And I pity them because they miss out on a life of friendship with millions of good people. And remember there is no such thing as a White man as we are just different Shades of Brown..

  26. "Far right" and "Neo-Nazi": Anyone that disagrees with what the insane liberals propagate as the truth.

  27. As a non-white man living outside of Europe – I can't say I have ever felt threatened or in danger by these cosplayers. Afterall, their favorite leader didn't kill many blacks or browns…he primarily just targeted other Europeans…

  31. These far-right extremists are such cowards. Afraid of other religions, ethnicities, cultures….journalists. And when things don't go their way or they do something they know they won't get away with they ever so often unalive themselves.
