A group of Neo-Nazis holding flags with swastikas on them marched on the Wisconsin State Capitol grounds in Madison on Saturday afternoon, with one lawmaker saying their presence was "alarming."
The neo-Nazi rally comes at a time of great division in America over the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Pro-Palestinian groups are calling for a ceasefire amid the fighting in Gaza after Hamas, a Palestinian militant group, launched its deadliest attack on Israel on October 7. In response, Israel launched its heaviest-ever airstrikes on Gaza, with pro-Israel groups supporting the country's right to self-defense.
The group on Saturday wore red shirts that said "Blood Tribe" on the back and performed the Nazi salute, or Hitler salute, which was a gesture used by the Nazi Party in the 20th century as a signal of obedience to their leader, Adolf Hitler.
According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), Blood Tribe is described as "a neo-Nazi group with semi-autonomous chapters in the United States and Canada. Blood Tribe promotes hardline white supremacist views and openly directs its vitriol at Jews, 'non-whites' and the LGBTQ+ community."

They have been here a long time. Many just went underground during and after WWII. But apparently they taught their offspring and decedents the same hatred because they are still here and gaining in force.
