27 times worse than the camps'
Petermann is a political friend of Jos van Rey. He said Thursday having the tweet posted an emotional mood, to come to their senses soon. ,, It was pure metaphor, '' he said Thursday.,, I responded to her look that nasty coldness. '' More he did not want to lose.

Petermann said, despite the apology on Twitter, he still stands behind his words. ,, This woman has the appearance of a camp torturer. There are terrible things happened in those camps, but the misery it has caused is still 27 times more. The way it presents itself, does it seem to be a criminal organization OM itself. "The remark about the crash does councilor off as 'imagery', he recorded across newspaper De Limburger .

Mayor Ralf Krewinkel of Heerlen called the tweet Thursday unacceptable. Especially since Petermann offered no excuses.
