 This said, I do not mean to criticise your post, kwp. It could indeed be
 useful to understand the psychological patterns out of which this specific
 kind of contemporary German racism grows, although I suspect that in the
 final analysis the new patterns are not much different from the old ones.
 Under the reigning political circumstances, though, the first response has
 to be "Asshole!"

I agree with you.  I meant it a little parodistic - a little. Psychological 
explanations are no excuse for nothing. And, in the end, it doesn't make any 
difference. The result is the same. For me it's more interesting what this 
all has to do with the "official" politics. And with the economic 
development. The one is an asshole, the other - a hypocrite. And the asshole 
is acting out what the hypocrite only thinks. Dou you remember the BAP song 
"Kristallnaach":
"Honoratioren hasten incognito vorbei+
offiziell sind die nitt gern dabei"

Free translated:
Local dignitaries are passing incognito
officially they don't like to be involved

This song was a number one in the German charts 1982. I remember what a DJ
said in that time: "The people has become adult". What a mistake! Werch ein 
Illtum!
