First a Beer Hall, Now a Bank

Germany's Central Bank President has written a book in which he, essentially, warns his countrymen about the deleterious effect of immigration from Islamic countries, mainly,Turkey.  According to him, "those people" are a bunch of ignorant, ne'er do wells, that in a few years will end German civilization as we know it.  Now, if this reminds you of someone who made these kinds of arguments some 70 years ago, you're not that far off.

Luckily, it appears that, except for the usual lunatic fringe, the German people have denounced this type of racist and bigoted statements.  Still, it's significant that such a major public figure would dare to express  these views publicly.  Fascism and, in this case, Nazi ideology are always a threat and must be taken seriously, especially in a country such as Germany.
