So the interesting thing about #b2203 is that the nazis aren't from the local area that they're marching through and attempting to terrorise, instead the organiser is from Aachen, and they organise the start of their march at a train station because they're coming in from out of town.
The far-right often claim that anti-far-right protests are from "bussed in actors", because that is exactly what they would do. Not because that's what the center or left are doing.

Lebanon warns of ‘new war’ as Israel strikes Tyre in south
An Israeli air raid has struck the coastal city of Tyre in southern Lebanon, the Lebanese government and several local media outlets have reported.
At least one person has been killed in Tyre from the strikes, the second wave of Israeli attacks Saturday, according to Lebanon’s Health Ministry. Another Israeli attack in Qlaileh, southeast of Tyre, also wounded four people, according to the ministry.
Earlier in the day, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said his country was at risk of being drawn into a “new war” as dozens of other Israeli air strikes killed at least five people. Salam warned Israel’s “renewed military operations on the southern border” would bring “woes to Lebanon and the Lebanese people”.

Remarquable article de @endeweld qui raconte par le menu comment l'Azerbaïdjan, Israël et la Russie tentent d'instrumentaliser son enquête sur Macron "Le grand manipulateur" pour affaiblir le président de la république (même s'il n'a besoin de personne pour s'affaiblir tout seul, à mon humble avis 😉). Passionnant, à lire. marcendeweld.substack.com/p/qu…
