I can not find words to to express my outrage at this…

From the Daily Mail Online:

Survivors of a Nazi death camp were shot at and abused as they gathered to remember their liberation.

Masked neo-Nazi thugs screamed ‘Heil Hitler!’ and ‘This way for the gas!’ at ten elderly Italian men and women, who returned to the site of the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria.

The gang also fired air guns at a group of 15 French survivors, many dressed in the striped pyjama-style uniforms they wore as inmates. One suffered a head wound while another was injured by a shot in the neck. The four thugs managed to escape.

Jewish leaders in Austria were appalled by the weekend scenes that marred events marking the 64th anniversary of the camp’s liberation by American troops.

Scum, vile scum… Cowards… It’s a sad testament to the world in which we live that scum like this exist. It’s an even sadder reality that antisemitism is on is rise around world, it’s time that good people stand up and in one loud and clear voice say Never Again. We can not allow this kind of evil to gain even a foothold.
