In other words, although he wrote extensively about the advantages of Jews being killed en masse, he didn’t really intend for any to be killed. The trouble with this argument is: [...]
The Antinazi Initiative have launched a campaign to ask the Greek government to take a stand over the acquittal of Plevris. Please take some time to go to their website and read about the case and then send emails to the leaders of four main political parties.

Following the acquittal of self-proclaimed Nazi, fascist, racist, anti-democratic, anti-Semite Plevris on appeal, there have been some angry reactions and concerned statements made in the press. There is one issue that still needs to be made clear to everyone. In a statement from the European Jewish Congress, it is alleged that
a Greek appeals court [...]
I have written about the Plevris trial several times on this blog. Mr. Plevris is a “writer” and
I declare from the outset that I am a Nazi and a fascist, racist, anti-democratic and am an anti-Semite

There have been several anti-Semitic attacks in Greece over the past few weeks. These attacks have involved the desecration of the Jewish cemetery in Athens, defacing a Holocaust monument in Corfu, attacks on synagogues and anti-Semitic articles in the Greek media.

Abravanel writes about the latest disturbing incident of anti-Semitism in Greece that was captured on video and posted to YouTube last Friday. The video shows a young man urinating on a holocaust memorial on the island of Rhodes. It was posted by a “group of students from the Venetokleio high school of Rhodes”. The headmaster [...]

Since the end of the trial, K. Plevris launched a series of legal actions against P. Dimitras, GHM activist Andrea Gilbert and the four members of the Central Board of Jewish Communities in Greece (KIS) Moses Konstantinis, Benjamin Albala, Abraham Reitan, and [...]
Following my post about the Greek Helsinki Monitor and KIS activists who have been targeted by the neo-nazi defenders of Plevris, I would like to offer you some insight into some of the opinions of Professor Maria Tzani of Capodistrian University of Athens (Pedagogical Department of Primary Education) who testified in the trial.

A short while ago I wrote about anti-semite and holocaust denier Kostas Plevris who was taken to court over his book “Jews: the Whole Truth”.
