Trapped in a NY Nazi Enclave, Couple Claims

By NICK DIVITO 

CENTRAL ISLIP, New York (CN) – A Long Island suburb that was once a hotbed for German-American Nazi sympathizers still flies a Hitler Youth flag above its clubhouse and fights to keep the neighborhood all white, a federal lawsuit claims.

Long Island Housing Services jumped in to represent homeowners Philip Kneer and Patricia Flynn-Kneer in a federal housing discrimination lawsuit filed Monday against the German-American Settlement League.

The Kneers say they\’ve been trying to sell their home in the Nazi-founded suburb of Siegfried Park in Yaphank, Long Island, for the past six years, but can\’t because of the group\’s strict rules designed to keep the neighborhood German.
