Stop the 16th March marches in Riga, Latvia and Latvians revising history!
Since 1998, former Latvian SS have every year , on the 16th March, been marching in the capital city of Riga to commemorate and herald their fallen colleagues as war heroes. The marches have over the years increased in alarming numbers and
are now even condoned by Latvian officials. On March 16th, 2011 in the heart of NATO, in Riga, more than 2,500 people, amongst them Latvian politicians, paid tribute to Latvians who fought on the side of Nazi Germany in Waffen SS detachments
during World War II. The Latvian Prime Minister told local media he did not think March 16th had ,“a special significance.”Legionnaires’ Day is used by radicals on both sides, “to confront each other”. However, this petition believes Latvia, the international community, the UK government, the European Union and Nato should condemn the Nazi event in clearer terms, as Waffen SS veterans are not seen as legitimate “heroes” in any EU member state which Latvia has been granted status since 2004.

Second latvian language newspaper is analysing jew
The second largest latvian language newspaper is the influential "Neatkarīgā Rīta Avīze". Not a far-right this conservative newspaper features far-right journalist and neo-nazi simphatiser Elita Veidemane frequently touching nationalistic subjects. Quite an often she interwievs well known latvian antisemite Andris Grūtups.
Opening the newspaper I found a totaly distastefull article, where the two are analysing jews, jewish influence, negative consecuences of smart but wrong jewish politicians and jews spreading ethnic hate. Reading the article creates a feeling, that a jewish people are driving force behind all the revolutions and politycal cataclysms. This is not the first their printed racist discussion about the "jew".
Here is online translation of the article: Grūtups: Jew Linderman trying to antagonize the Russians and Latvians
The same newspaper guys are spreading another conspiracy theory that George Soros owns a personal conspiracy network of devilish sorosites (alsou sorozīdi, sorožīdi aka soros's jews) infiltrating the politics and media. Gerorge Soros is controversial, anti-conservative and influential, but this sounds more like a modernised version "Protocols of Elders of Zion".
They do have some pro jewish articles like one appreciating art of Mark Chagal, and his paintings of goats and jews. Alsou mildly antisemitic are the largest newspaper "Diena" and its offspring "Ir", sometimes having sophisticated anti jewish remarks. Say in article about Hollywood movie there are statement that this is good choice after been tyred by all these geek jew actors.
* * * * * * * * *
Latvian Borat Andris Grutups had found his 20 minuts od fame when USA state department had included in human righ report.
However he is much well famous among jewish organisations.

Interesting enought, if you switch in antisemitic texts word "jew" with "us", it sounds much more truth like. They claim that jews are spreading ethnic hate, but in reality these guys themselves are spreading ethnic hate.

Latvian Borat Andris Grutups had found his 20 minuts od fame when USA state department had included in human righ report.
In January Jewish community objected to showing of a play written by prominent lawyer Andris Grutups, which involved a "blood libel". Grutups also published a book in September called Scaffold that drew criticism from Latvian academics and the Jewish community as anti-Semitic.
On May 28, a Riga court found the publisher of an anti‑Semitic and anti‑Russian newspaper not guilty of interethnic incitement. The paper had published articles referring to Jews as "kikes" and containing numerous derogatory statements about Russians living in Latvia.
However he is much well famous among jewish organisations.
Latvia's best-selling book of Christmas 2007 was an antisemitic diatribe by Andris Grutups, the co-founder of, and lawyer for, the ruling party of Latvia. His book could be summarised as "the Jews had it coming because they were all Communists".

Non-citizenship of Latvia
Latvia's far-right political landscape is kept solid by quite an exotic for an europeans system of non-citizenship of Latvia.
15% of nation a non-citizens are not a stateless persons or citizens of other country, still all Latvian born children of non-citizens still are non-citizens. Unlike stateless persons, non-citizens fully belongs to state, bur are deprived of voting rights and can not apply to certain state based jobs. Alsou non-citizens have Latvian passports of different colour with word 'alien' in it, so have problems going throught passport controls abroad.
To understand it, look at neigbouring regions. Similar laws exist in middle eastern tyranies. In Asad regime certain syrian ethno-religious groups are deprived of citizen rights, and in some region countries settled arabs have passports and full citizenship but bedaui don't. So Asad had declared, if 2nd/3rd generation kurdish refuges will support him, he will grant them passports and citizenship.
Like in middle east non-citizenship of Latvia is ethnic, non-citizens form lowest class of russians, ukrainians, belorussians, poles. Mostly old, poor, uneployed or uneducated. But there there are senior russian pro-democraty antiUSSR activist, whom by the Latvian laws in her old age was granted non-citizenship.
Pretty stunning curiosity is that non-citizens of Latvia call themselves a negroes, (in russian negr), however it's not so suprising understanding social status of non-citizens and russian history lacking race based slavery. Russian word for a "non-citizen" "негражданин" (negrazhdanin) sounds pretty similar to "негр" (negr) a literar russian transliteration of "negroe".
This "non-citizenship" is fractally wrong, it is wrong in all the perspectives and scales. It is undemocratic, unethical, antihuman, ethnic tension spreading, racist, human degradating, uneuropean, fascist and creating negative attitudes towards European Union amongst the russians.
Political system of non-citizenship allows neo-nazis to enter Latvian parlament coalition cause if non-citizens (15% of Latvia's residents) would have a chance to vote, they wouldn't had voted for nazis and xenophobes, thus creating balanced parlament not putting radical nationalism as main political interest.

Neo-Nazi in Latvian parlament
During his youth, Raivis Dzintars were notable far-right radical. Here he meets russian radicals of the same ideology.
He still is far-right radical, jet he has changed his company. Now he sits in much more respectable chair of Latvian parlamentary coalition.

Herberts Cukurs nazi criminal or a national heroe?
In april of this year there appeared request to bury ashes of Herberts Cukurs in cementery dedicated to latvian war heroes. Say, all latvian heroes must be burried in latvian soil.
There had been discussions should he be re buried in Latvia or not, and do it will create bad PR for Latvia. However none of official faces mentioned that Herberts Cukurs is notable war criminal. Most of latvians would just to prefare not to talk about certain subjects, such as holocaust. There were just some internet comments, that with heroes like him it is no suprise that Latvia is in such downfall.
In Latvian book stores one can find the book, showing war criminal Cukurs as a heroe. At some point indeed he was something like latvian "Aviator". This self made man had almoust celebrity status for his self made planes. However with the comming of nazi Reich he had chosen wrong side to follow and totally wrong way of showing his loyality to Adolf Hitler. In the 1941 year Herberts Cukurs took active role in holocaust being the most notorious member of ill famed Arajs commando, who almoust exlusively murdered Latvian citizens of jewish nationality. In 1941 year in Latvian teritory was murdered ~70 000 Latvian jewish citizens.
Suprising enought, there is no proof, that Cukurs had any antisemitic wievs. So his participation in holocaust was an easy way to show his loyality to the new regime. (much more easy than to go to front line.) Riga's Getto survivor tells Hollywood like stories about his companion throwing breast feed infants in the air and Cukurs shooting at them or Herberts Cukurs taking infant by the legs and hiting head about the wall. It could be a postraumatic or it could be the fact.
Google search gives english language blog portraiting Herberts Cukurs as wrongly accused heroe and even savior of some jews. -> http://www.herbertscukurs.net/ But the same looking blog in latvian tells, that even if he had murdered jews, it is not such a big deal. -> http://herbertcukurs.blogspot.com/
Herberts Cukurs was so notorious war criminal, that National Geographic had "nazi hunter" episodes dedicated to him.
Official latvian school history books don't say, what happened in Bikernieki and Rumbula forests (nazi execution sites), had 'forgoten' Riga's Ghetto or how war criminal Herberts Cukurs murdered exLatvian citizens. Young children are teached only mostly about gulags, so they end school having perception that those nazis were bad, but no so much bad and everything happened somewhere with some whatever jews. There were denazification in USA occupation zones but no denazification in soviet occupation zones. After the war all the soviet territories were includent in "victors". Many of the older far-right before the fall of USSR was passionate communist party members, and nazi Uldis Freimanis was soviet army fighter pilot.

Latvia's ethnical radicals
Latvian parlament radical "All for Latvia!" member Raivis Dzintars and leader of russian radicals Eugeny Osipov could look as best buddies, however they are not. They are more like mirror images of each other.
During their political youth both had established far-right extremist organizations in a town of Liepaja. As a good nazis they claimed 'blacks' as their enemies. ('Blacks' in both russian and latvian means africans, arabs, turks, south and north caucasians, indians, mexicans, gypsies, all non whites exept mongoloid asians.) But there are no 'blacks' in provincial town of Liepaja. Maybe in all of the Latvia there are some 20 aficans, so KKK would had hard time at enemy finding. With no 'blacks', they switched to each other. In reality they never were real nazis, they both are Slobodan Miloshevitch like eastern european ethnical radicals.
Many of the former communist countries had histories of rising ethnic radicalism with following violence and dissolution of states. Kosovo, Pridnestrovia, Bosnia and Hercegovina, Abkhazia, Mountain Karabakh, South Ossetia, Monte Negro. Pro western states are internationaly recognised, pro russian and pro armenian are not. But all these micro nations (South Ossetia is just one town with neighbouring villages) came to exist in much alike situations. Mountainous regions had most of the violence, with culturaly related peoples fighting each other. Hopefully baltics and russians are much more flegmatic with moderate tendencies. Exept these guys. Say Jānis Sils.
At the outside smooth parlamentary nationalist "All for Latvia!" in the inside at Ogre town they run "All for Latvia!" fight club with much stronger far-right tendencies. On the other hand TB/LNNK is just soviet nationalist demagogs. TB/LNNK member and former soviet communist party activist Pēteris Tabūns and Juris Dobelis could claim, that all the russians are allways drunk mongol-tartarian asiatic untermenshen. But having ukrainian wife wount make to believe that he means it. Latvians don't see any difference in russians and ukrainians, as for the most europeans they both are just different kinds of russians. However their allies "All for Latvia!" party is deadly serious saying that only nationalism can lead Latvia outside of abyss, cause only nationalists love Latvia. "All for Latvia!" member 'intelligent antisemite' Jānis Iesalnieks had stated, that he sees rational reason in Anders Behring Breivik act of terror.

NeoNazis entering Latvian coalition talks
After Latvian parlament elections in september, coalition talks entered so called National Alliance. National alliance was found as electoral alliance of soviet style national demagogs "For Fatherland and Freedom" (including some suspicions members like Jānis Straume and Jānis Birks, both by some claimed as corrupt) and ex neo-nazi group "All for Latvia!".
Notice stylised swastika as logo. Party claims, that swastika had nothing to do with german national socialism, however most of far right groups using stylised swastika claims the same. Say Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging claims triskelion swastika means three black sevens, number of YHWH.
Some "All for Latvia!" key members took place in some neo nazi meeting with russian radicals. None knows, what did they discussed, and thay claim, event didn't took place.
"All for Latvia!" are known for their participation in 16. march events. In theory at 16. march they just commemorate latvian wafen SS veterans. However in reality 16. march is meeting day of all latvian right wing radikals, be it relatively moderate "All for Latvia!", eccentric antisemite Aivars Garda, bombist Igors Šiškins or not so covered Aivars Gedroics and Uldis Freimanis, who managed to grab attention of Anti Defamation League.
During independance day "All for Latvia!" traditionaly organise torch march. No way torch marches are latvian tradition, however they look nice during night.
However beautifull, torch marches in central and eastern europe are characteristic only of far right groups, like these ukrainian radikals. No humanitarian, libertarian, centrist, green or christian groups organise such events. Actualy in central and eastern europe there are not so much these groups. It realy had to do with soviet past, as democrats and humanitarian activists were claimed enemies of soviet regime, but nationalist felt relatively free if they weren't anti soviet.
Something more aggresive from "All for Latvia!".
Funny, the song is plagiate of russian song Alisa - Nebo Slavjan (The sky of Slavs). Not so good for a party, claiming all ethnic minorities must be forcibly turned into latvians.
