Those are the kind of of obstacles that come to mind. But also I'm not sure it's a good idea to set a precedence of banning political parties.

The Junta wasn't that long ago. It wouldn't be acceptable for most countries to ban a political party, but I think Greece banning Golden Dawn deserves the same "let's not do that again" exemption to democratic norms Germany gets every time it tries to ban the NDP.
