Protection of the Constitution.
Right-extremist power: Danger for all.
How large the danger is, which threatens from the Rechtsextremismus in our country, has shown itself since 1991 in frightening clearness. Before everything 1992 the power escalated the neonazistischen and militanten Right-extremistn scene. Xenophobia, antisemitism, aggressiveness against the weaks under us, all these unfortunate elements a menschenverachtenden, dull ideology revealed their bloody consequence. We became eyewitnesses of the violent attacks on asylum applicant homes like in Hoyerswerda and Rostock, the burning impacts on by Turks inhabited houses in Mölln and Solingen. We experienced the desecration of Jewish memorials and cemeteries, murder and manslaughter were committed.
The preliminary balance of the fear: Since 1991 died 32 persons through impacts with Right-extremistm background. Explosion-like schnellte 1991 the number of the atrocities facing the preceding year around next to the five-fold on almost 1.500 highly. In the year 1992 there were more than 2.600 homicide offenses, injuries, burning - and bombs attack, breaches of the peace as well as property damages with considerable use of force. This development could be stopped 1993. Even if fortunately since then a clear decline of the atrocities can be recorded, can be given presently still no all-clear.
The protection of the Constitution had pointed already before years to a new upcurrent the Rechtsextremismus. However a such escalation of the power was to be foreseen after the reunification by nobody, even if she/it had Right-extremist precursors: At the beginning of the 80er years committed militante Neonazis heavy atrocities. the impact of an outsider 1980 on the Munich demanded 12 deads October party. Them in Palestinian terrorism circles entangled „defense sport group Hoffmann " - exercised the armed fight and was forbidden. After burning - and bombs attack could become the „Germans drive groups " - enttarnt. The „Hepp/Kexel - group " - was condemned responsibly for holdups and bombs attack, their originators became to long-time prison sentences. Knowledge of the protection of the Constitution helped, which rechtsterroristischen to dry up swamp for years.
The root: Misanthropic world view.
Nationalism and racism, that are the roots all Right-extremistn activities. The own, „national " - understood nation is output as a so important, absolute asset, that itself the interests of other nationalities, but also the rights the individual that have to subordinate, also warlike power is approved to it. The own „race " - is estimated as higher quality opposite other, thus should be protected the German people from „racially inferior " - foreigners and from a „Völkervermischung " -.
This is have learned the world view of die-hards and their new youthful followers, who from the crimes and the disaster of the third of empire nothing. So-called Revisionisten go quite so far, the National socialism to verharmlosen, to there for the Leugnung of the mass destruction of Jews in gas chambers. Such confused „ideological attempts " - are not to be arranged with our liberal democratic constitution. You/They contradict the protection guaranteed in the Constitutional Law of the human dignity, which „inalienable human rights as basis of each human community, the peace and the justice of the world " -, they conform at the equality guaranteed in our constitution of all persons before the law. In our constitution it is called: „Nobody may wronged because of his sex, his descent, his race, his language, his home and origin, his belief, his religious or political views or are preferred. " -
Neonazis want a totalitarian state on the basis of the elite - or leader principle after the pattern of the NSDAP. This means dictatorship and is not compatible with the liberal democratic constitution, because it is directed at next to all fundamental principles of our constitution: the sovereignty of the people, the separation of powers, the independence of the courts, which Mehrparteienprinzip, the equal opportunities of the parties, the opposition freedom. Where it leads, if these bases of the democracy disregards and are set besides power, the sacrifices of the National socialism and the community of nations in the secondary have learned World War as well as we Germans leidvoll.
Protection of the constitution against the right-wing extremists means therefore wehrhafte preservation of the human rights, the peaceful coexistence of the people and backup of the citizen freedom in the democracy. The consistent fight against them argue atrocities protects human lives.
Even if they camouflage themselves: We know them/it/her.
Rechtsextremismus has given it in our liberal state, the Federal Republic of Germany, always. He/it became and is fought with all means of the constitutional state.
After knowledge of the protection of the Constitution authorities there is to the time 108 Right-extremist organizations and person unions in the united Germany. Them belong to round 45.300 persons, under it approx. 6.400 gewaltbereite right-wing extremists, particularly Right-extremist Skinheads, as well as round 2.700 Neonazis. At the position of festgefügten organizations step increases loosely structured person unions. Herewith it goes about the setup weitgefächerter, loosely grouped drive unions, initiatives and cells, which should agitate independently of each other.
The use of modern communication systems like info telephones, mailboxs and mobile phones plays today in the Right-extremistn scene a standing out role. Objective these informationellen instead of organizational network is it among other things, to unfold fast and flexible activity and to convert, joined with the idea, on this way constitutional measures escape to be able to do.
The danger, which did not organize by it numerically by far more important and better - militanten right-wing extremists exit, exists before everything in their propaganda and propaganda.
Even if they shrink back personally in direct call to the power and submit under the mask of Biedermännern lip services for the constitution, so help them/it/her however, which Nährboden to prepare for militancy. Slogans like „foreigners raus " -, the discrimination of Asylsuchenden, hardly disguised antisemitism and racism, Verharmlosung of the third of empire, scorn of the democracy to to the rush against their representatives belong to the typical appearance of these organizations - also in election campaigns. To call are before everything them „Nationally - liberals " - the publisher Right-extremistr publications Dr. Frey including the „Germans people union " - (DVU), besides the „Nationaldemokratische party of Germany " - (NPD), as well as a series neonazistischer organizations. From the Anlayse of the collected information an objective directed against the liberal democratic constitution emerges uniquely. Also „The republicans " - offer as always reference points for anticonstitutional efforts. She/it strives however increasingly for the avoidance of targets.
Open power of Neonazis and ski.
The development of the latest time has shown, that before everything from Neonazis and it - chiefly neonazistischen - Skinheads exit direct danger. If the aggressive entering marking of Neonazis are for a National Socialist system, their open racism and xenophobia, their antisemitic setting as well as the tendency, to enforce political goals with power.
Many it to the part incredibly brutal Right-extremistn atrocities go on the account the Skinheads. With them it deals regularly with convinced nationalist and racist, without hardened ideological understanding.
Youths are round 66 percent the perpetrator under 21 years, which are latest just 13 or 14 years old („Babyskins " -). You/They search under like-mindeds reward and substitute for missed security. Their social conflicts compensate them/it/her in common Saufgelagen („coma drinking " -) and in use of force. The group linking shown often also in the appearance (bald heads, bomber jackets, jumper boot) and their nationalism help the ski to one „We - consciousness " -, which raises their self-esteem considerably. That serve also the concepts of the enemy, hate on foreigners, on allegedly inferiors, „Undeutsche " -. Not only foreigners, Jews, „gipsys " - are attacked would hate objects, also „left " -, homosexuals, prostitutes and homelesss.
The most ski range in loose unions and are not organized. Their hate explodes in spontaneous power drives. A systematic „network " - between Skinheads and neonazistischen groups and/or other right-wing extremist is not recognizable. Indeed there is in individual cases occasionally how in points contacts and links.
If scene magazines („Fanzines " -) and computer games with Right-extremistm song write, content amplify the power standby.
Text example from a song of the group „final victory " - over Turks: „Sticks them/it/her in the dungeon or sticks them/it/her in CONCENTRATION CAMPS... if you have ' ne large oak in your garden steh'n, then wants I a Turk at it hang seh'n " -.
To criminal prosecution measures against tape members and Vertreiber of Skinheadmusik and -schriften as well as concert prohibitions and indexing procedures through the Bundesprüfstelle for jugendgefährdende fonts has provided the BfV through the transmission of information important contributions.
No „second chance " - for the unconvinceables.
The legal „takeover " - the National Socialists in the Weimarer republic 1933 was the German, who set up after the war a democracy, doctrine and warning. The democratic state should not be once more defenseless against his enemies. Therefore a „wehrhafte was created with a series of instructions in the Constitutional Law democracy " -.
So the forfeiture of basic rights can be expressed for instance, if these to the fight against the liberal democratic constitution are abused (kind. 18 Constitutional Law). That is to say, who the right uses for the free statement in this sense, that can be denied through judgment of the Federal Constitutional Court this right.
Kind. 9 the Constitutional Law forbids „unions, their purposes or their activity the criminal laws run counter to or them against the constitutional order or against the idea of the international understanding conform " -. And in kind. 21 GG is captured: „parties, which exit after their goals or after the performance of their followers on it, to hurt the liberal democratic constitution or to eliminate or to endanger are unconstitutional the existence of the Federal Republic of Germany. On the question of the unconstitutionality the Federal Constitutional Court decides " -.
Up to now there has been in the history of the Federal Republic of Germany beside numerous prohibitions of unions first two party prohibitions: 1952 the Right-extremistn SRP and 1956 the linksextremistischen KPD. Who asks, why with this instrument so reservedly is circulated, it should think about it, that restraints of the freedom rights anchor in the Constitutional Law of the citizens may be only extreme means of the defense. Before are all measures of the criminal laws, to empty also the democratic dispute. It can be indicated also, not to press a group through prohibition in the underground, where they to observe more with difficulty and is to be checked in their activity, as if she/it agitates in the public. To make the verabscheuungswürdigen driving Right-extremistr Volksverhetzer and atrocities an end, the state has however occasionally no other choice, to go ahead as with all constitutional means against them/it/her.
The Federal minister of the internal has forbidden thus several organizations and put against individual persons at the Federal Constitutional Court the proposition, to express the forfeiture of the basic rights. Also the ministers of the Interior of the countries have remitted prohibitions against regional Right-extremist groups.
Not suitable are such means for the fight of hardly structured groups like them the Skinheads. Here only determined application of the criminal law helps through police and justice.
Protection of the Constitution is matter of all democrats.
So that the state collect, the criminal prosecution authorities and courts the necessary knowledge can receive and deal, protection of the Constitution authorities documents among others over against the basic values of our constitution directed and sicherheitsgefährdende efforts. Also that is controlled in the Constitutional Law (kind. 73 and kind. 87 GG). The Federal office for protection of the Constitution and the state authorities active in the federal states for protection of the Constitution have no police authorities, their task is described meeting with the designation „early warning system of the freedom " - .
The observation the Rechtsextremismus is one of the emphases of the protection of the Constitution.
Many Right-extremist groups and/or parties do not agitate openly or try, to formulate their programs so, that she/it Handle none against they offer. First the inclusive systematic observation of the activities and announcements of such groups through the staff members of the protection of the Constitution allows for it, to disclose their true intents, to attain evidence and proofs for anticonstitutional efforts. About his knowledge the Federal office for protection of the Constitution informs the government and, if it deals with criminal offenses, the criminal prosecution authorities. In the protection of the Constitution reports published annually by the league minister of the Interior as well as with interviews, lectures, pamphlets etc. is instructed also the general public. The development in the Right-extremistn scene became thereby always much attention given.
Considering the current events the Federal office for protection of the Constitution has strengthened his section II („Rechtsextremismus and -terrorismus " -) personnel; besides became under the assistance of league and countries a „information group for the observation and fight Right-extremistr/ - terrorist, particularly xenophobic atrocities " - (IGR) arranged. The control has the Federal office for protection of the Constitution.
But Wehrhaftigkeit against extremists, their propaganda and drives is not only a matter of the state institutions. If the ranging examples of the peaceful citizens - engagement encouraging for us all are against hostility towards foreigners, antisemitism and power. The Lichterketten of the fall 1992 have shown, that our country does not want to leave be terrorized and discredit from a militanten minority. Also that is protection of the Constitution.
