Fears over antisemitism in new Greek coalition government
http://www.thejc.com/news/world-news/58265/fears-over-antisemitism-new-greek-coalition-government

Jewish organisations have expressed concern over the presence of an extreme right-wing party in Greece's new provisional government.

The new Greek coalition, formed after the resignation of Prime Minister George Papandreou, held its first session on Friday, but concerns have been raised by organisations worldwide over the presence of the fast-rising, ultra - right LAOS party, the Popular Orthodox Rally, in the coalition government.

The party has been condemned by the American Jewish Committee, after it joined the unity government together with the Conservative New Democracy party. At least one LAOS member is expected to gain a ministerial post.

2. Well said
These were the same conditions that created Nazi Germany, so it's only natural that insecure, mentally unstable people "make a right turn".

In the 30's we might not have known better, but this is 2010 and we can see the warning signs.

SMASH FASCISM.
