Argentine neo-Nazi group approved as political party
An ultranationalist organization led by Alejandro Biondini, an accused neo-Nazi, won legal approval as a registered political party.
Buenos Aires Judge Ariel Lijo granted the approval for Bandera Vecinal, or Local Flag, on Wednesday. The party, which is expected to participate in the 2015 presidential elections, had signed up the required 4,000 members.
The Jewish political umbrella DAIA said Biondini has publicly and repeatedly supported the figure of Adolf Hitler and Nazism. DAIA reiterates its position to not legitimize as a political party those who justify hatred and encouraging violence against the Jewish community and others in our country.
In 1988, Biondini led chants of Death to traitors, cowards and Jews at a gathering of extreme-right demonstrators in Buenos Aires. At the time, Biondinis group was called the National Alert, reminiscent of the cry Germany, awake!
