Violent Right-Wingers Ruin Berlin\u2019s Reputation: and in Munich or at the Technical University of Munich? \u2013 2<\/p>\n
\u201cUntil now no one has ever issued a warning about the part of Berlin known as Prenzlauer Berg. Just the opposite: a visit to this lively area, to the east of central Berlin, has been an integral part of every visitor\u2019s program. But now this: a badly injured Italian, right where Berlin \u2013 ever eager for culture, tolerant, and open to the world \u2013 amuses itself day and night. Three heavies with shaved heads cursed this Italian male as a \u2018shit foreigner\u2019 and beat him with an iron rod or a baseball bat, as reported to the police by thirty-year-old Gianni C. Some aspects of the case seem baffling \u2013 first, there are no witnesses to a crime that occurred in an area that is lively even at night; and second, the seriously injured victim obviously hobbled around for hours without ever being noticed by anyone. The police are now investigating, but there is considerable uproar. Italian newspapers are already ringing the \u2018racism alarm\u2019 (La Stampa).\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Author and Source: Christoph Seils, \u201cNachts die Vorstaedte meiden\u201c, Die Zeit, 18.05.2006, Nr.21.<\/p>\n \u201cI feel like someone who has been attacked and injured by a group of thugs.

Im Gegenteil, bislang geh\u00f6rte ein Besuch in dem quirligen Stadtteil im Osten des Zentrums zum Pflichtprogramm eines jeden Besuchers. Und jetzt das! Ein schwer verletzter Italiener, genau dort, wo sich bei Tag und bei Nacht das kulturbeflissene, tolerante und weltoffene Berlin am\u00fcsiert! Drei kahle Muskelm\u00e4nner h\u00e4tten ihn als \u201aSchei\u00dfausl\u00e4nder\u2019 beschimpft und mit einer Eisenstange oder einem Baseballschl\u00e4ger zusammengeschlagen, berichtete der 30-J\u00e4hrige Gianni C. der Polizei. Einige Aspekte der Tat erscheinen r\u00e4tselhaft \u2013 vor allem der Umstand, dass es f\u00fcr eine so brutale Gewalttat in einer auch des Nachts belebten Gegend keine Zeugen gibt und offenkundig auch das schwer verletzte humpelnde Opfer stundenlang von niemandem bemerkt wurde. Noch ermittelt die Polizei, doch die Aufregung ist gro\u00df. Italienische Zeitungen schlugen schon \u201aRassismus-Alarm\u2019 (La Stampa).\u201c<\/strong><\/p>\n (Fortsetzung folgt.)<\/p>\n Autor und Quelle: Christoph Seils, \u201eNachts die Vorst\u00e4dte meiden\u201c, Die Zeit, 18.05.2006, Nr.21.<\/p>\n \u201eIch f\u00fchle mich wie eine Person, die von einer Gruppe Schl\u00e4ger angegriffen und verletzt wird.
