DRESDEN, GERMANY - FEBRUARY 13: Anti-neo-Nazi activists carry signs showing smarked through swastikas before the creation of a human chain in the city center as a statement against neo-Nazis on the 69th anniversary of the World War II firebombing of the city by the Allies on February 13, 2014 in Dresden, Germany.
