The extremists mainly pursue the "movement of the white force," that is a joint fight of "the Aryan nations," according to the UOOZ. The National Resistance promotes its stance by organising concerts of its supporters, demonstrations and protest marches that are officially announced under various false pretexts. Last year ultra-right extremists held 26 such events in the Czech Republic, which is more than the year before, the report says. Experts Russia rejects U.:S radar, will bombard no one - general ...

They say extremists thereby prepare for entering higher politics and they want to win more public support at their events. In August only, extremists staged a concert of neo-Nazi bands in Ochoz u Brna, south Moravia, attended by some 400 people and they planned a similar event in Hradec Kralove, east Bohemia. After the Town Hall banned it, some 300 ultra-right supporters marched through the town centre. Tho latest extremist event was officially organised by the ultra-right non-parliamentary Workers' Party (DS), but it only legitimised a meeting of neo-Nazis from the National Resistance and helped them avoid conflicts with the police, the Tolerance and Civic Society association says. Neo-Nazi ideology is being more or less openly promoted at such events, the civic association members said previously. Former Czech wartime political prisoners of Nazism criticised the fact that participants in the march in Hradec Kralove had expressed Nazi ideas in their speeches. Experts point out that Czech extremists use the same tactics as similar groupings abroad. "The National Resistance's structure is based on the foreign pro-Nazi groups' principles that have proved successful: resistance without a leader, while particular cells work virtually independently," UOOZ says. All cells fund their activities and support imprisoned adherents, whom they call "prisoners of war," by the proceeds from concert tickets and the sale of promotion material. Last year, Czech police also monitored more intensified activities of leftist extremists who mainly organised meetings aimed against neo-Nazis.
