In Germany's recent elections, a far-right, anti-immigration party claimed its first state victory since WWII.

The country has spent decades reckoning with its Nazi history, but far-right extremism and violent plots, particularly targeting Jews, Muslims, and immigrants, have been on the rise.

This environment has paved the way for the AfD (Alternative for Germany) party to gain political ground.

This week on Four Corners, filmmaker Evan Williams investigates the rise of the AfD and far-right extremism in Germany.

He speaks to intelligence officers, political figures, and victims of far-right violence and asks how did this happen?

Germany’s Enemy Within reported by Evan Williams went to air on Monday 23 September at 8.30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.

A LOT OF EUROPE IS POISED ON THE BRINK OF ULTRA-RIGHT POLITICS. SEE MELONI IN ITALY. SEE MACRON IN FRANCE WHO REFUSES TO ACCEPT THE LEFT WON MORE SEATS IN PARLIAMENT THAN ANY OTHER PARTIES.

ABOVE IS A DEFACED POSTER FROM THE 2016-17 GERMAN ELECTIONS (pictures by Gus Leonisky), IN BERLIN. THE POLITICS OF THE FPD ARE CENTRE-RIGHT, WITH A VIEW TO PRIVATISATION. IT IS A JUNIOR PARTNER IN THE GERMAN GOVERNMENT THAT COULD NOT STAY IN POWER WITHOUT IT NOR WITHOUT THE GREENS.

YET ALL THESE GOVERNMENT PARTIES, THAT HAVE PROPELLED SCHOLZ TO PITIFULLY LEAD GERMANY, SUPPORT THE NAZIS IN KIEV, AND THE PROTO-NAZI REGIME OF NETANYAHU IN TEL-AVIV (OR JERUSALEM). THEY ALL ARE AWARE OF THEIR DEPENDENCE OF THE AMERICAN EMPIRE WHICH HAS MORE THAN 40 US BASES IN GERMANY. 

THE GOVERNMENT OF GERMANY IN ITS APPROACH TO THE AfD IS QUITE FASCIST AS WELL... IS IT A CASE OF FIGHTING FIRE WITH FIRE?

MORE TO COME.
