A romanian mayor dressed up as a nazi, later claiming he didn't know it was a nazi uniform(not mentioned in this article, but in another).

Still though, what is this obsession with right wing fascism in eastern Europe.

Well there were "socialist" regimes that do not exist any more. So if you don't like communists you have to like all those soliders who fought against it - and those guys where in Waffen SS. People go from one extreme to another.

I wonder...


Reasons for the Romanian situation (http://reocities.com/Paris/5121/robotwork.htm#6)
The Gypsy children in the Romanian institutions are the result of Nicolae Ceausescu's plan to create a superior "Dacian" people by selective breeding and population engineering. Ceausescu's fascination with Hitler's racial policies is no secret; "In the early 1970s, when Ceausescu learned that Romania had over 600,000 emigrés abroad, he became very interested in Hitler's Fifth Column. That was not too surprising, as Ceausescu had always studied Hitler's 'charisma,' and had repeatedly analyzed the original Nazi films of Hitler's speeches ... In almost every speech, he recalls the Romanian people's origins in proud Roman and Dacian warriors, just as Hitler harped on the Aryans..."(6) (http://reocities.com/Paris/5121/robotwork.htm#6)
Because he took pains to conceal his actions, however, and little documentation to substantiate them has so far come to light, the means by which he tried to accomplish his aims are only now being pieced together. The establishment of his "death camp" orphanages apparently pre-dated his open fascination with Hitler by some years:


Ceausescu started the camps as early as 1965. There had been years of planning. When Auschwitz, the Nazi concentration camp, was discovered in January 1945, Nicolae Ceausescu was 27 years old. Like the Nazis, Ceausescu advocated racial purity. Years later, he would express his concern for, quote, "the new human type we intend to mold in our society." Ceausescu had Romania's history books rewritten. He argued that the true Romanians were descended from Dacians, far more advanced than what he called the other "aboriginal" races ... "superior even to ancient Rome." Ceausescu wanted a huge robot work force. (7) (http://reocities.com/Paris/5121/robotwork.htm#7)


His intention was to breed on the one hand large numbers of "pure" Romanians and on the other, those who were to make up his "robot work force," the status Roma had endured as slaves for 550 years (8) (http://reocities.com/Paris/5121/robotwork.htm#8). In both cases, like the ancient Spartans, the weak were allowed to die, since they were of no use to either population. Women, married or not, were encouraged to have many children; they were rewarded publicly for having five or more, and birth control was made illegal. Romanian officials maintain that Roma were not therefore discriminated against since this policy affected them equally (9) (http://reocities.com/Paris/5121/robotwork.htm#9). The difference, however, lay in what was destined for each group. Because of the state of the Romanian economy, and the execution of Ceausescu in December, 1989, this bizarre plan was never to materialize, but it has left a legacy in the surplus children who languish in the Romanian orphanages and whose bodies fill the mass graves reported by Terre des Hommes. That Roma are treated as subhuman in modern Romania, where the very word Tsigan ("Gypsy," but synonymous with "slave" in the Romanian language), is the result of centuries of persecution rooted in Romanian history.

Fascism and Conservatism have at least not molded into each other, as they have in Western Europe, my friend.

The base selling of every bit of Western Europe to the Banks is a disgusting Carte Blanche attempt to harm the struggling classes.

It's all a bunch of rich neocon back-stabber trying to ram as much of our currency into banker's pockets as possible. That is all Conservatism in Western Europe is now, I'm convinced of it.

Wait, he didn't know it was a Nazi uniform and yet it had the German war cross on it? (I know it was used in other wars, but if you're not sure why take the risk). I mean I know that he's probably a fascist, but if he is a fascist then I don't understand why he would deny that he knew what the uniform was?

Because he's not officially a fascist. The real kicker for me was when he said that he wore it because he liked it on Tom Cruise(in another article).

Still though, why would he take the risk wearing it in the first place. Some shit, I will never understand.
