Rotten in Denmark and Lame in Spain

The anti-immigrant Danish People´s Party´s growing clout was reflected in February´s elections. Denmark´s immigration and asylum laws are widely hailed/decried as the strictest in Europe.

Last week saw an arson attack on the home of Denmark´s Minister of Immigration by a leftist group calling themselves "Beatte without Borders."

Meanwhile after a two day reunion here in Spain the OSCE culminated in the Cordoba Declaration, vowing again to keep better track of rising anti-Semitic and racist violence. As this article notes, the OSCE has no powers of enforcement beyond expulsion (and if anyone can find a historical example of this please pipe up). Many doubt with good reason that such pledges and laundry lists will result in enforced anti-racist policies.

If the extreme left-wing continues to marginalize itself with such acts -- similar to the "eco-terrorism" in California which fueled a public discourse linking activism/dissent to domestic terrorism to international terrorism -- and if the human rights community is content to echo "feel good" rhetoric, what pragmatic spheres of action exist for the concerned citizen and/or professional?
