German far-right supporters holding torches march in Dresden February 13, 2005, on the 60th anniversary of the city’s destruction in World War Two. A march by neo-Nazis cast a shadow over official events attended by British, American, French and Russian dignitaries intended to mourn the victims while also remembering the crimes of the Nazis and other cities which shared Dresden’s fate.

Thousands of demonstrants protest in a countermarch against a march of neo-nazis aimed at drawing attention to the ‘Holocaust of bombs’ dropped by the Allies in Dresden (banner reading ‘Geh Denken’ (go and think); wordplay with ‘Gedenken’ (commemoration). The eastern German city of Dresden paid its respects to tens of thousands of people killed in the Allied bombing 60 years ago, amid attempts by the far-right to exploit the commemorations.(AFP/DDP/Norbert Millauer)
