At the 15.Maerz the group of neo-Nazis of "Bürgerbewegung pro-Köln" wants to march again in Cologne and this equivalent twice on one day! They want to hold two demonstrations: the first at 11:00 in Cologne-Chorweiler and a second at 15:00 in Cologne-Muelheim, what is also a exactly decided provocation because these are the quaters with the hightes rate of immigrant inhabitants in cologne.
--------------------
Who is "pro-Köln"?
--------------------
Behind the harmless name "prominent heads of the Cologne neo-Nazi scene hide themselves pro-Köln". In the last years numerous right-wing extremists demonstrations in Cologne held their leader Manfred Rouhs, in which mainly right skinheads and Nazi racquet took part out completely North-Rhine/Westphalia. "pro-Köln" takes up again and again different topics, in order to transport their brown propaganda: But all the same whether they rushed against the Christopher Street Day or demonstrated against the "brothel" in Longerich - each mark they were confronted with decided resistance. In Chorweiler it succeeded to prevent pro adjacent resident/inside in the last year even a "pro-Köln" demonstration completely - and also Nazi concert planned by "pro-Köln"-nazis had to be broken off because of anti-fascist protests.
To schueren after the Nazi troop tried with most diverse topics the fear of humans of other origin and skin color, they want to destroy the peaceful living together of German and foreign citizens now with actions against the planned building of a mosque in Cologne-Chorweiler and/or Cologne-Muelheim. For this purpose "pro-Köln" announced two demonstrations for 15 March: at 11 o'clock to Paris place in Chorweiler and at 15 o'clock at the Viennese place in Muelheim. We do not permit that their calculation comes up!
-------------------------------------------------------
What happend on the nazi-march in Chorweiler last year?
-------------------------------------------------------
Already last year here were "heavy arguments" against the nazi-march in cologne-chorweiler:
-> article "Express"-newspaper march 2002:
"stones flew! Chorweiler in the demo state of emergency "
State of emergency in Chorweiler. Stones flew, tracer ammunition at policemen were shot, glass containers upset. "Nazis fuck off"; "we called the one wars you all" the others.
Cause was a demonstration of the initiative oriented towards the right "pro-Köln". They wanted to pull yesterday of Paris place out by Chorweiler to the national office for protection of the constitution. Because of that they are observed, against what the protest of the Neonational ones arranges itself.
A counter demonstration had directly announced itself beside it at the Liverpooler place. In order to keep the two groups apart, several groups of one hundred police were used.
(...)
Starting from 15 all waited o'clock on rights. In addition, those had to wait. Scarcely two dozen by the BGS in the Chorweiler rapid-transit railway station on the platform were determined. Before five they were then let through over briefly.
The police had spaciously locked that off Paris place. But stones and bottles from the quantity of the inhabitants flew immediately. Became again and again "Nazis out" called. signalmunition flew over the place. The policemen in the middle in it.
Also in the Lyoner passage the officials were thrown with stones. In the Osloer road rioters revoked glass containers, in order to build from it barricades. At 18.10 o'clock was then everything past. The oriented towards the right ones were shipped into the rapid-transit railway. 40 counterdemonstrants were arrested, an inhabitant in the Osloer road suffered a cycle collapse. Result of a demo daily in Chorweiler."

And what will happen this year?
--------------------------------
Noone knows, but police officials seems to be frightend that cologne will get the biggest riots since years on march 15.
Here a interesting newspaperarticle from 2003/03/01 ("Kölner Stadtanzeiger"):
"Police counts on heavy riots on Nazi demo
OF AXEL SPILCKER, 06:16H
Much work comes to the police in the next weeks.
The police counts on a hot month March: Hardly the "Karnevalstrubel" is past, waits the next extensive use for the officials. For 15 March the right-wing extremist called "Buergerbewegung pro-Köln" to two demonstrations. In the morning it is to be able through Cologne-Chorweiler, on afternoon is to be protested also in cologne-Muelheim against the building of mosques. Of Cologne leading police director Winrich Granitzka counts on substantial riots. It gives realizations that right-wing extremists groupings would have announced out completely North-Rhine/Westphalia. Leftist coalitions called in the InterNet already to prevent the actions that rights with all means.
The police fears that in Chorweiler the force could escalate. During a demonstration one year ago in same place after the words of the police director hundreds had switched themselves young people and young men on spontaneously into the demonstration to make "only over in hooligan manners riot. These people were totally unpolitical. Those was it no matter, whether it went against the police or flew at that time against the right-wing extremists." Stones and there were bottles trown, from which quantity became tracer ammunition shot, numerous policemen and demonstrators became hurt 44 arrests. So that such force scenes do not repeat themselves, the police wants to use some groups of hundreds on that Saturday. Special concern prepares the second planned demonstration for Granitzka. To the end of the first demonstration the right-wing extremists Protestler want to obviously change with public means of transport in Rechtsrhein-area. The police tacticians will have large troubles to hold the opposing groupings apart on the way after Muelheim.
Mental the Cologne police prepares besides for the threatening war against the Iraq. Long the planning staff under the line developed Granitzkas of plans for all political eventualities. An alarm plan stands, already now keeps to departments around the clock upright a call readiness, the layer service was changed over. Several hundred officials are in case of emergency additionally used. Also far more than hundred objects were taken up in the city to the catalog of protect-worth buildings. "In first line are this English, American, Jewish and Turkish Objekte." in the case of an invasion count the police on large demonstrations, which could abuse extremists for their purposes. Es is possible everything: of Farbschmierereien up to Brandanschlaegen , Granitzka said. Of Cologne leading police director warned at the same time panic-make of all too larger. So far give it no references that Cologne could be a preferential goal of a notice, nor are active in Cologne radical groupings."
