Germany: Anti-Semitism commissioner calls for removal of Nazi law leftovers Nazi-era paragraphs must be purged from present-day German laws and edicts, urges Germany s anti-Semitism commissioner Felix Klein.  Germany s anti-Semitism commissioner called for the removal of 29 Nazi-era paragraphs that remain in the country s laws in comments published on Sunday. Felix Klein, appointed two years ago by Chancellor Angela Merkel s cabinet, said the worst example was a 1938 Nazi remnant in Germany s present-day law on changing a person s name. Jews in Nazi Germany were required under a 1939 regulation stemming from that law to insert a typical Jewish forename, Israel for men, and Sara for women, if their first name was not on a typical list maintained by the-then Interior Ministry.
