IT'S NOT LIKE THE XENOPHOBIC BASE IS STRAIGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE:
EMBARRASSMENT FOR GERMAN XENOPHOBES (Der Spiegel, 9/01/06)
A German far-right group has run into trouble for a publication directed towards teens in Cologne. After first angering advertisers who felt they had been duped into supporting a xenophobic student magazine named Objektiv, the right-wing bigots are now accused of stealing pictures used in the 24-page publication.Ironically, the photo in question is of an attractive blond in a tank top and short skirt next to the slogan: "German is Hot!" But in an embarrassing faux pas for the German nationalists, it now it turns out that the Teutonic hottie is actually a Czech lingerie model. So much for offering a "free-patriotic point of view," as was supposedly the remit of the less-than-objective Objektiv.
The feelings of inadequacy that make guys Nazis also gives them notoriously odd sexual proclivities. Posted by Orrin Judd at September 1, 2006 11:42 AM
Czech women, like Venezuelan women, need to have US Visas air-dropped on them.
