Jürgen Becker has died.

No, not Jürgen Becker the comedian, kabarett artist and actor.

And no, not Jürgen Becker the state secretary.

It's also not Jürgen Becker the jurist and academic.

And no, not Jürgen Becker the theologian.

It's Jürgen Becker the writer and poet.

And when his son dies, things get interesting again, because his name happens to be Boris... but no, not this one...

As mentioned in the Dying Bigots thread, German Holocaust denialist and Neo-Nazi activist Ursula Haverbeck has died at age 96. 

For the D-A-CH-List, she is considered another miss because we included her on the first two lists in 2021 and 2022.

But ultimately it is certainly a death that we are all "happy" with. One Nazi less.

Damn, our list could have gone up to 15 hits or so with a perfect selection. Though of course, getting them all correct was statistically extremely unlikely.
