Latvia's Legalized Nazism

FILE IMAGE

A EU member state, Latvia, which likes to cry foul about the so-called “Russian agression”, continues its legalized discrimination of Russia-speaking population.

Comment by the Foreign Ministry’s Information and Press Department on the Latvian Constitutional Court’s denial to sustain a claim to preserve private schools that teach in Russian (source):

All public schools in Latvia will be required to teach exclusively in Latvian, effective from academic year 2021/22 as part of the so-called education reform announced by official Riga. The Latvian Constitutional Court also recently approved the legal closing of private schools for ethnic minorities.

This politically motivated decision deprives the Russian-speaking population of Latvia of the last opportunity to receive an education in their native language, even if they pay for it.

Such flagrant discrimination runs counter to Latvia’s obligations under fundamental international legal instruments such as the 1950 Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, the 1960 UNESCO Convention against Discrimination in Education, the 1965 International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, the 1966 International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the 1995 Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities of the Council of Europe.

The language terrorism policy pursued by the Latvian authorities has been repeatedly criticised by respected international organisations like the Council of Europe (CE) and the OSCE, including their leading experts, the Commissioner for Human Rights Dunja Mijatovic and OSCE High Commissioner on National Minorities Lamberto Zannier.

We urge the international human rights community to step up pressure on the Latvian authorities given the critical situation for ethnic minorities and their native languages in this Baltic country.

This is an important reason why so many NATO troops are present in the Baltic states. Not because they fear “Russian aggression”, no, they need help of NATO to oppress the Russian speaking people if they possibly start to protest against their discrimination.

Jens Holm

A very biased version. Its true, but dont see the other side at all.

You could see it afte the Bolsjevics took over even before okt. 1917. The most obvios totalitaere contrast was nazis connected with Natinalists.

You should learn to accept thats a fact. If You let Russians have democrasy and behave like that, there will be a de-escalation.

There a no free elections in Russia today.

In that its also a fact much Russian settlements were forced and established by people and kommisars to make the 3 Baltics Russian.

So thise “Old Latvians” unfortunatly has good reasons to keep the “new Latvians” down. Here Yóu of course only see Nato in some overwhelming active role. You seemes to forget that if people feel safe because of that, they are able to act more friendly.

So please let them find their own balance. Lituanians liberated themselves from the Tzars and its many bad sides. Next communists by Rippentrop-Motov took over and eradicated all nazis and nationalists, they could find. Next nazis actullay came and killed communists and even accpters of that. And then Communist came back and Litauania sudsenly again was a smalle Minority in USSR, where so many Lituaniens were prisioners for many many years as well as Sovjets migrated 1000 to them for Russification and military matters.

Very strange You cant see that kind of Their history book. They were not liberated by Chaiman Stalin but kidnapped back.

And You say they are not allowed to make some balnces and adjust them and thinbgs like that often is up and down.

I have hoped Russia would join us, so USSR and Comecon was a part of us and would be able to be at least more semilar to us in polical as well as economic ways. I dont see that.

I see Putin wuthhis new missile, which devastating fast can hit the whole world – and even being proud of that.

How is this “Nazi?” Sounds like Soviet/Bolshevism to me.

Jens Holm

Why dont You look it up. Thats why we have Internet.

My own very short version is that liberalisme and conservatisme has a backside, because it also leaves many poor and starving.

Therefore the socialisme part is workers are secured food, housing, health care a.s.o. so they are have to be sarisfied by that. They do have rights about, but they also cant decidemuch about it, because the state has big programs(like the Comminists) they have to follow.

By that the low part of the population are helped a lot but only decides small things but its enough to keep them in line being very good soldiers kept in line too.

The upperclass is a relative. It of course are the big rich ones – fx Krups in Germany – But are You are realtive clever and very loyal cotozen, You easy can go to the top in wellfare. But You also have to know, that You for good or bad resons can be removed.

I repeat: thats my own very short version for the mechanism.

The extra build in is hate to all not 100% loya ones. Even inside fx Germany all oppostion will be removed even some can work as prisoners. People making no use such as menthal and fysical handicapped by most cathegories are waste and will be exterminated in a sober way.

But if You has been a good and loyal party Member and gets sick or wounded fx in war, there are first classe treatments for You the rest of Your life in all levels.

In details I have one verý illustrative example for the figtings in Holland west of Antwerpen. Here was a unit, where all had been sounded hard in their inside stomacs. By that they almost only could eat white bread. By that they could not be very mobile, but well digged in trenches and concrite, they defended much better then the normal second class fortress soldiers, because they all were – or has been – veterans.

We also in the late Naza many small units being snipers having one leg only, throwers of grenades as well as a few suiciders. So they remained very loyal being treted well.

Only if You like WW2, Uou should use this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Walcheren_Causeway It was a very expensive part for the western allies.

“Nazi” a term made up by a communist jew in Canada name Konrad Heiden as a derogatory term for all Germans, later picked up and used in zio-banker propaganda for WWII. The National Socialist workers party never called themselves “Nazis”. You are willingly using zionist, Bolshevik, & Soviet Communist propaganda! As a Pro-Assad reader of SouthFront, why should I believe Assad isn’t a dictator who gases his own people? The zio-propaganda says Assad and Hitler are the bad guys, so why use the propaganda against Germany as fact, & ask us to believe the propaganda against Syria is false? End ZOG!

Jens Holm

Nazi is named after “National Socialisme” made as an adding and improvement to Fascisme from Romans.

The main differences in that specialiesed version is well descriebe in the book written by Hitler named “Mein Kampd”.

Hard to eat Adolf Hitler was inspred by some Canadian Jew. But be aware the Israelien moon ship actually landed on the bacside of the moon and dont wonder if You soon can buy green cheese from there by the invible bridge, they do too.

Most work is done by ISIS runnel workers, which suddenly had no jobs, and almost work there for free. Jews are like that. People work hard for low pay.

So go back to Your poor farm you dirty little peasant and help corn to grow corrn to the cheese. If You have no maney for the cheese, the Jews pærobatly will rent Your wifes and children everytime You are hungry.

leifken

Sorry you’re wrong, & obviously you’ve NEVER read Hitlers book as he never uses “Nazi”. You can learn the truth here: https://justice4germans.wordpress.com/?s=Konrad+Heiden&submit=Search

Nationalsocialistishe Arbeiderpartei made by Jews in Canada – Hahahahah. 1933 or before and by maddages and demands from heaven.

Hahahahaha.

leifken

Read the article! “Nazi” Isn’t short for the party name, NSDAP was the correct shorting of the party.

“The term “Nazi” (along with “Nazism”) is a political epithet invented by Konrad Heiden (7 August 1901 – 18 June 1966) during the 1920s as a means of denigrating the NSDAP and National Socialism. Heiden was a journalist and member of the Social Democratic Party. The term is a variant of the nickname that was used in reference to members of the SDP at the time “Sozi” (short for Sozialisten). “Nazi” was a political pun, based upon the Austro-Bavarian slang word for “simpleton” or “country bumpkin”, and derived from the fairly common name Ignatz. It would be like saying “nutsy”. So, if for no other reason, one should easily understand why the term was regarded as derogatory by the National Socialists and why they would never use it to describe themselves.

Jens Holm

I have no need. Its very unimportant no matter what.

leifken

So if you don’t care about the matter, nor the facts behind the matter, why reply to my comment with inaccurate information?

leifken

I didn’t say Hitler was inspired by a Canadian jew. I’m not sure you understand what you are speaking about. I’m a small business owner, not an adult commenting from his mothers basement where he still lives, & talks about books he’s never read.

Jens Holm

I dont care if You have 3 legs and is from Mars. Its completly irrelevant.

I only wage remembered his second name and looked up. He certainly has connected Mein Kamph with National Socialismus and was not Canadian at all but german refugee there.

I allow me to add, that if Jews invent so many things its because someone like You dont.

None will blame You for comming beer in Your coffee.

“National minority”… That makes up 30% of population and 45% of capitol’s population. In other countries, it would be called “one of the major ethnic groups” and not a “minority”.
