Eight members of a German far-right group were sentenced to jail Wednesday on terrorism and attempted murder charges for a series of explosives attacks targeting refugees and anti-fascist activists.
Based in Germany's ex-communist east, the so-called "Freital group" had sought to create "a climate of fear" at the height of Germany's refugee and migrant influx in 2015, the court was told.
Its leaders Timo Schulz and Patrick Festing were sentenced to 10 and nine-and-a-half years prison respectively. The other six received custodial terms of between four and eight-and-a-half years.

Such as the culture that built the strong countries they came from. It's especially useful when they keep tight hold on that culture, rather than adopt the local customs. That way it's assured their new place of residence will grow to be the a place of wonder, beauty, and peace...exactly like where they came from.

Culture, so important. But it's not only that. You need great resources -- especially coal and oil. And you need a great leader. Germany has a tremendous culture, one of the best. Richard Wagner, he was so metal. Before metal was a thing. And Germany -- people don't know this -- had a beautiful Empire that went to the farthest parts of the globe. But the Emperor did something VERY FOOLISH, he got Germany into a terrible war. They lost very badly, as everyone knows. Because they didn't have enough oil. And they were forced to sign a very unfair treaty. Which took away their Empire and made their Country VERY WEAK. And even took away parts of their Country. It took away the Saarland -- so much iron, so much beautiful coal -- it was killing their steel industry. Until Adolf Hitler -- a very successful artist -- decided to go into politics. He said, no more WEAKNESS! He said, "one people, one empire, one leader" -- but in German, in the magnificent German language. And the German people loved him, they made their Country great again. Made it into a VERY STRONG Country, the strongest it had ever been. But, as everyone knows, Hitler did some VERY FOOLISH things too. Because he got Germany into a war with Russia. Which was the biggest country -- it still is. And had a very strong culture -- Prokofiev, Tolstoy, the Bolshoi. Very cultural. And they had an amazing amount of oil, so much more than Germany. Germany had a lot of coal, they made oil out of coal, it wasn't enough. And they lost very badly again. And they were VERY WEAK again. For a little while.
But they're strong again. Because they still have their Wagner. They still have the terrific German language. And they still have so much beautiful clean coal. But, not as strong as they could be. They don't have much oil. They don't have a strong leader. And, very important, their nuclear is weak and getting weaker. France, in 1940 nobody thought France could become stronger than Germany. But they're much stronger today. Because they have a very nice nuclear arsenal. While the Germans haven't built their first bomb. They were the first to discover nuclear. Their nuclear electric was OK, not many problems. But they're shutting it down, not a smart move. They started their bomb program in 1939. And they don't have a bomb yet, very sad! Iran, Iraq started much later, they got just as far. If President Macron decides to attack, it's curtains for Germany. It would be over very quickly for them.
