Golden Dawn nazis have website closed.



The Greek Nazis Golden Dawn have had their website closed.

Normally service providers only close due to inappropriate contact,such as hate speech.So ,it is a matter of speculation as to why it has been closed.

However since they are an organisation which celebrates Hitlers birthday and excludes non-Aryans in its membership (something which even the British National Party over here aren't allowed to do under British law.),then it is a matter of speculation.

This report from JTA :

 ATHENS, Greece (JTA) --The Greek neo-Nazi Golden Dawn Party, which won nearly seven percent of the vote in last week's elections, has had its official website taken down by host WordPress.

"This blog has been archived or suspended for a violation of our Terms of Service," said a message from WordPress that replaced their homepage.


The web page hosting service bars sites that include "hate content" or "contain threats or incite violence towards individuals or entities."


The extreme-right Golden Dawn Party, whose flag closely resembles the Nazi swastika, received 21 seats in parliament, the first time it passed the threshold to enter the legislative body. It campaigned heavily on an anti-immigrant platform under the slogan "So we can rid this land of filth."


Despite its strong showing, it is not clear how many Golden Dawn members would ultimately end up as lawmakers, as Greece appears headed to fresh elections. A poll published Sunday in the local To Vima newspaper indicated that in a new vote Golden Dawn support would shrink to under 4 percent.


Last week's elections resulted in a fractured parliament as voters protested against the mainstream parties they blame for the country's financial crisis and for accepting harsh European austerity measures.


Greek President Karolos Papoulias was holding last-ditch effort talks with political leaders on Sunday, trying to form a national unity government after the three largest parties failed to put together a coalition. If that fails the country must hold new elections in June.


Greece's Jewish community has condemned the rise of Golden Dawn as "a serious blow for Greek democracy."
