Some members of a white supremacist group in Arkansas are among some groups that disrupted a Holocaust memorial ceremony in Boston on Sunday. Yesterday was the 60th anniversary of the Allied victory in Europe. Some six million Jews were killed by Nazis during World War Two. The protesters clashed with those attending the ceremony, resulting in the arrests of two local people. Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, who attended the event, said the presence of white supremacists disgusted him.
