Italian police said on Thursday they uncovered a plot to form a new Nazi party and seized a cache of weapons during searches across the country.

Police in 16 towns and cities from the Mediterranean island of Sicily to the Alps in northern Italy took part in the investigation, which was launched two years.

The probe revealed a “huge and varied array of subjects, residents in different places, united by the same ideological fanaticism and willing to create an openly pro-Nazi, xenophobic and anti-Semitic movement”, a police statement said.

Is it illegal to form a nazi party in Italy or even Germany? I imagine the rest of the world would be tolerant as long as they don't do anything criminal. Suppose it would be illegal in Israel too.

you say that, but believe it or not a "Nazi" party was set up in Israel.

just like an Black man who decided to join the AWB:

people can do weird things sometimes.

Indeed, you can also add the 'white pets' of the EFF to that list.

Having a cache of weapons is frowned upon even in places were racism isn't a crime yet.

Random fact. His grand daughter is an MP in the Italian Parliament and she actively campaigns in favour of her Grandfather and says he did no wrong.
Interesting. I wonder if there are many examples such as Wilhelm Verwoerd.
