A JDL Germany member contacted me to take action against this website and its antisemitic articles. I wrote an e-mail to them. I said that they have to delete the Antisemitic articles from their website. But they won't.
Just take a look (German)

Steven Weigang, Jewish Defense League Germany
Here we publish the response of the Lachner news to the Jewish Defense League Germany:
In reply to your mail and the comments of 31 10. 2009:
Dear Mr. Weigang,
Your comment has been posted at the above-mentioned articles letters.
Among these articles, I would mention the following:
www.lachner news.ch is an independent, online newspaper. Regardless of all political parties and all faiths. I myself am a partisan. When I criticize a government so I do it regardless of religion, color, origin, etc. There is racial hatred, not with me. The accusation of anti-Semitism and hatred of Jews is therefore absurd.
In the article it's all a criticism of Israeli politicians.
For the purposes of expression and press freedom in Switzerland will not delete the above article!
Veiled threats as in your comment: "We will watch you" are totally useless and unnecessary.
Yours sincerely
Hans Christoffel

It is really surprising that the Lachner-News is also read somewhere in Germany. Any response to an article is published, even if it times out negative. However, here no items deleted just because someone feels concerned. As well as helping hidden threats such as "We will watch you" absolutely nothing.
