Neo-Fascists Win Big in Austria

World | Wed, Oct 1, 2008 at 6:08:50 pm PDT

White nationalists are on their way back into power in Austria: Austrian Party That Wants to Bring Back Nazi Imagery Wins Big.

Students of history may feel misgivings at this point.

And a reminder: the Austrian Freedom Party’s Heinz-Christian Strache was one of the organizers of that neo-fascist Trojan Horse “anti-Islamisation” meeting in Cologne.

In Austria’s recent national elections, voters gave significant support to a party that seeks to bring back Nazi symbols and salutes. The anti-immigrant Freedom Party (FPO), headed by Heinz-Christian Strache, former dental assistant and representative of Europe’s Cities Against Islamisation group, won 18 percent of the vote.

Another anti-immigrant party, the Alliance for Austria’s Future, led by Jörg Haider, a former Freedom Party leader who broke away and formed a new party in 2005, got 11 percent of the vote. Together, these allied parties won almost a third of the vote, giving them huge gains over the traditional leading parties, the center-left Social Democrats and the conservative Austrian People’s Party.

According to AFP, “the exact distribution of the 183 parliamentary seats will only be officially announced on October 6, 2008. But the combined score of the far-right parties would put them in second place ahead of the conservatives.”

uh oh look who crawled out of their hole in Vorarlberg. When I lived in Austria about 3 years ago these guys were just a joke, and nobody expected them to ever get anymore than 10 percent. Looks different now, and if I were a Turk I'd be kind of worried.

That's weird. Usually we know right away. Oh well.


In the absence of moderate parties that carry a platform different from the usual center-left social democrat common to all european countries, people will vote for extremists that put up front what they are concerned about.

I don't think 30% of Austrians are nazis, but I think most of them are concerned with immigration and non-assimilated minorities that are demanding sharia etc. Political correctness of other parties prevent them from making it an issue in their platform. hence people vote for those who do.

It's natural the larger and more separate from the populace a government becomes. There are ways to counter that, but what often happens is that a counter to the counter is found. Then the system becomes corrupt. Then comes a time for revolution.

30 karmic_inquisitor  Wed, Oct 1, 2008 6:22:19pm

Again, a point that cannot be stressed enough.

European liberalism has shut down divergent points of view using speech and hate laws to make the opposition to their agenda sometimes illegal and often discredited.

The result?

Because the breadth of debate is gone, you have two narrow poles of opinion - the soft socialist leftism and white nationalism.

Congratulations, Europe. Once again you show how superior your democracies are to ours.

/I don't see any white nationalist parties gaining ground here, even with a black presidential candidate in the race.

The few people I know in Europe have been pissed for quite awhile about the immigration policies being forced on them by the EU. Unfortunately the
parties like FPO are the ones that are obvious in their anti-immigration stance and that makes them attractive to the average folk. Between that and the PC multi-culti stuff mentioned by maddog in #5, it is not looking pretty.

I agree. The shuting down of "incorrect" viewpoints by hate speech laws has caused this.

In Canada, PC and the Human rights comission is starting to shut down debate. Freedom of speech should be absolute. Unlike our elites, I beleive common folks can sort out the demagogues and the asshole and the nazis; just let'em speak and we'll sort them out.

During my visit to Austria, I saw two arguments between young, somewhat drunken youths and working immigrants. Both were provoked by the youths and neither came to blows, probably because the working men demonstrated that they were willing to fight back.

This is what happens when arrogant elites sever the connection between local citizens and the central legislature. The problem with the EU is that it has absorbed soveriegnty but is not seen as legitimate. When the transnational elites in America show contempt for the people they set up for extremism. That was the problem with rule by judicial fiat as in Roe, it sapped the link between the people and the law.

OT from IMdb: , take aspirin before reading.


Former Frasier star Kelsey Grammer has received a string of death threats over his political views.

The actor - who is a staunch supporter of America's Republican Party - admits he is often targeted by members of the public who are unhappy about his outspoken opinions.

He says, "I've had death threats, stuff like that - mostly for my political views. They say 'I should kill you'.

"I do think people are entitled to different opinions but one of them was really adamant about it. It was about ten years ago. I'm trying to remember what it was that they were upset about. It was an odd thing from a weird person."

Ahhhhhhh......Liberals .... so compassionate...... so, so tolerant!

I concur.

Sadly, this part of western civilization lost her mooring to sanity. The drive left over the last 50 years became a hammer, and anything less than it became a nail.

I have always said, this was my fear in the long run. What used to be parties on the right side of the spectrum have become non-existent, allowing for any rationale alternative to socialism.

The far right noticed the vacuum, and they intend to fill it.

It is possible that the mainstream parties will develop a response to this issue as a result of the number of votes having been siphoned off by the right-fringe. My theory, which I have expounded here before, is that the fascists may unwittingly succeed in moving the issue into the democratic center.

Obviously. But they didn't learn from history. What the people have elected to "fix" the problem is going to bite them in the ass at some point. Now these parties have legitimacy- it's like europe has a political bi-polar disorder. It's either too far left or too far right. Reason and the ideals of liberty are losing.

I just got back from Europe and go there regularly.....so I see it first hand....the Europeans, those with some sense and the ones who aren't buying all the PS crap, are scared shitless that their countries are being invaded...WHICH THEY ARE!
In EVERY major city in Europe, there are HUGE swathes of neighborhoods FILLED with Muslim immigrants......and they have been growing bigger and bigger since I've started going to Europe 15 years ago on a regular basis.
Normal people feel they have no recourse.....NOBODY ELSE IS STICKING UP FOR THEM! Sound familiar?! So they vote for these parties.
I don't envy them because I would probably vote for these parties as well.
The alternative is having leaders who are bowing down to Muslims who do not want to assimilate, who bring barbaric practices to Europe, who want everyone else to change for them and who are causing a lot of crime, poverty, and a third world mentality.
They are doomed....and it's very sad. Most people feel like there is nothing they can do. I have many European friends...from all different countries...Germany, Spain, Netherlands, England.....and they all feel the same way.
The Muslims are taking over......along with the liberal loons.

Fascists need a space to occupy in order to acquire power. Sadly, the powers that be in europe gave it to them. It will be more difficult now to stop the rise of eurofascism- they've been given legitimacy.

re: #80 Charles


Because I don't think Nazis are really a problem, their only appeal to the population is that they offer an alternative on some of the more worrisome point. Immigration and assimilation.

Unfortunately, nazis are socialists (ok to be precise, facist) that have substituted racism for the old class warfare of common socialism.

Now you follow this stuff - the rise on nazims (spelling) - more than I do, especially in Belgium. So I'll take your word if you think Nazis have an appeal that goes further than just immigration and non-assimilated alien culture.

re: #68 dak

Beleive me, if the actual trend holds, Nazis is not the problem we will face coming out of Europe.

Maybe the third or fourth Muslim nuclear power will be in Europe. Give it 2-3 generations. maybe only 2 generation and a muslim political party holding the balance of power in the parliment of a nuclear nation?

A hundred neo-nazis hiding in their mother's basement won't be a big problem.

Did you read this part of the article?

We’re not hearing cries of alarm because the FPO is aligned with the Iranian regime. According to the Jerusalem Post, Strache “vehemently opposes sanctions designed to force a suspension of the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program.”

It might not require two or three generations to see the rise of a radical muslim political state with nukes.

96 richiep  Wed, Oct 1, 2008 6:47:33pm

If the main stream parties are not going to resolve the problems then people will migrate to the extreme. How many migrate to the extreme depends on how scared they are and how inept their other options are.

Consider the UK. What options do people have when they see their culture and legal system pushed aside; for individuals who have no desire to assimilate and repudiate centuries of Western Culture. Add in generally worsening economies for the European countries and people begin to look outside of the normal political parties.

Change is coming to Europe. Whether that change is good or bad depends on the individual's point of view. How peaceful or bloody the change will be is what is unknown.

No , that's not the way wishing , people should be going to the election booth TO VOTE OUT THE BASTARDS .
I know I'm gonna literally be shit-on for saying this but , we're looking at four more years of partisan bickering and acrimony, and this next Congress may be even more rancoris and non-productive than the last two -no matter WHO wins this election .

The country is stuck , divided roughly right down the middle and "the two camps " will fight each other to the very detriment of this country , and that also -no matter who wins .
The analogy to "Nero fiddling while Rome burns " is becoming more apparent by the day .

And no matter who wins , the other side will claim election fraud and so will start the new term of the new President , the two camps at each others throats from the getgo .

It's time for a THIRD PARTY ,no not the communist party , or a liberal party ....but an INDEPENDENT PARTY , and make no mistake , i dont think the american People would suffer another four years after this coming most contentious one passes .

Lou Dobbs has got the right idea , but until the true patriots finally get sick to their stomachs , of this ongoing bullshit and rancor , then will the time be right for a first serious grass roots movement , and mobilization of true government BY THE PEOPLE .

Ross Perot was too little too late , and not enough [ or any ] Independent Senators and Congressmen . Perhaps this term will be the impetus to get the ball rolling .
And sadly only the objectivity of an Independent, the ability to step back and witness the foolisheness of partisanship , as it relates to the greater good of the Country , can see it .

And to anyone skeptical of this notion , one hour of watching Hannity and Colmes will convince .

Hope we can survive these fools until such a day comes .

re: #107 dak

There are many factors, but the most important one is that they are good at disguising true goals and adopting any popular cause they can. They are also very well versed at tearing down any moderate alternative parties, and if you read their websites you will find them attacking the true alternatives more than you will the Left. (remember that the left is also socialist and trade unionist, their is a natural attraction there.) The unifying factor is tribal nationalism, and you find them all working together now from Tyrolia to the Hindus burning churches in India. They are now networked, and their goal is to further polarize things.

Whether it's nationalism, social issues, anti-immigration, xenophobia, or who leads the local dockworkers union you will find them at the forefront in most populist issues, and vehemently tearing down any other party that supports that issue. If you want to know their true goals for Europe however you have to read "Nuremberg the Promised Land" and like material.

So, why have the responsible people who would do a good job of leading governments NOT stepped up to the plate and done the right thing? Well, the ones who step forward (in this case, goose-step forward) will get to decide what to do. REGARDLESS OF WHAT WE THINK, THE FASCISTS ARE TAKING ACTION. So, where does that leave us?

And even that wasn't a true alliance -- our armies never really marched side by side in any theater.

If you want to call that alliance, you certainly can especially since we said all the right things to get them to kill our enemies. Even at that time however we knew that the Soviets were our next enemy.

Calm down a second there. No need to be hyperventilating quite yet. Together, this party, and Haider's party got 29% of the vote. How many parliamentary seats the will translate to, and whether the two neo-fascist parties will cooperate still remain to be seen. Clearly, they won't, between them, own a parliamentary majority. Significant gain? Yes. Huge win? Not quite.

The real problem, which many seem to be ignoring, is that Europe has a distinct lack of moderate right-of-center parties. The established parties are all on the left side of the spectrum; some just further left than others. There simply is no place for a thinking conservative like you or me to park our vote. Create a vacuum like that on the moderate right, and you might as well be drawing a pentagram on the floor and conjuring up the shade of Hitler himself, because a vacuum cannot exist for very long without something springing up to fill it.

Hopefully, either a new moderate-right party will spring up, and give these disenfranchised voters a respectable place to park their vote, or else one of the existing old-line parties will see the writing on the wall and lurch to the right in an effort to claim that same vote. If the head-in-the-sand attitude carries the day, the neo-Fascists will be the only ones winning.

186 Thanos  Wed, Oct 1, 2008 7:30:36pm

I spelled out a prescription many times, but it gets ignored.

It starts with laws, and enforcing individual rights. [ I know that they frown upon those in Europe, but tough, it's the only path.]

It starts with going after specific hate mongers and exposing them, but to do that you have to be morally unassailable yourself -- something the nazi's aren't.

It starts with sane limits on immigration, like you must speak the language, must be educated, and there's a cap on any one country or religion.

It starts with going after the ideology instead of the symbols, mosques aren't the problem, what's said in them is. Scarfs aren't the problem, women's rights is.

etc. etc. etc.

Communism was going to redistribute wealth by force (the old class warfare biz) and the nazis offered an alternative - socialims based on a unified nation (and everything was going to be the jew's fault).

So I wonder if the rise of radical islam in europe -a totalitarian system promising deep changes - is stoking the same sentiment now that is pushing some people to facism.

I think all of us agree on that. Really, in a nutshell, adhering to what is already in place.

I think some people think that by asking questions, this somehow equates with diminishing of the topic, or not taking it seriously.

It is not. I am not giving passes, never have, never will. I have too many in my family who fought this the first time around.

I guess my answer in some of this is, am I surprised by these events?

No.

The one aspect in all of this, is western civilization has lost her way. Holding people accountable, like politicians, means nothing anymore. The sub-prime issue is case in point for that. The very men guilty of why we are here now, are the ones claiming victory on the bill, while pointing the finger at someone else tonight on television.

My impression, like others who have opined as well, none of this comes as a shock anymore. we have reached that point. The world has reached that point.

This is not unexpected.

Europe, for the most part, went from the rule of kings directly to early forms of socialism [think Germany under the Kaiser and the like]. They don't have a long standing or deep attachment to American style conservatism -- small government [although apparently today we don't either] and individual resiliency. They would feel lost without a father/mother figure at the helm... an individual or party to which they can surrender their autonomy.

In short, they have a stunted range of political options to chose from -- international socialism thru national socialism seems to be the extent of the spectrum.

They will chose a top-down, paternalistic government... its really all they've known.

Sharmuta, I'm not giving Nazis a pass. I'm telling you that the reason why they, or neo-Fascists are winning votes is that they are capitalizing on the fear that is felt by a significant part of the population that is confronted with the fact of creeping Islamization. The reason they are able to do so is that there simply are no real moderate-right parties over there that could be considered comparable to the Republican Party in the USA, or the Conservative Party in Canada.

Right now, I see the neo-Fascists more as a symptom of a structural problem in the European body politic than as a problem in their own right, although given enough time, they will indeed become that. If the European political field had been healthy, there would have been no place for these weeds to take root.

Can we do anything about the situation in Europe? I really don't know. What we can do here, is to support our moderate right-of-center parties, so they don't wither away, and leave the field ripe for an infestation of fascist thistles.

I understand why this is going on in europe, but it doesn't mean I agree with it. I think the one thing not being factored in is the rampant anti-Americanism many europeans have. The last thing I think they want to admit is that they could learn something about government and Liberty from the Americans. Or even the Canadians. I think they still consider us rejects over here, and thus we're not worthy of being given any sort of consideration for what political lessons we've learned that they could apply to their situation.

A good discussion overall, I'm happy to see we can still debate politics, even risky politics, without being called facists. There were a few close calls though (about giving Nazis a pass or an excuse) but that is understandable- there are so many weirdos on the net and some do happen to be nazis trying to justify their crap.

It is something to watch, the race between Islamofascism and whatever will challenge it in Europe. Lots of folks will be caught in the middle. Will the EU or UN be any help? Yeah, stop laughing.

Mark Steyn sees a problem arising and thinks something will happen. He bets on form - looking at Europe's past in dealing with political upheaval is not an encouraging prospect.

But I have to worry about this November right now. It may be shortsighted, but in all its crazyness the US is (was?) still the best bet for Western cultural lucidity... (so I guess that ain't saying much nowaday).

Edmund Burke knew this. It dawned on Churchill, knowing Chamberlain's exuberant proclamation.

you attack me?

since it has become a CRIME to defend yourself in England

what do you think the English people will eventually do?

Who the hell said I don't have an answer? That's always your retort and frankly, after quite a while, it's why I've weighed in. YOU are buying into fascism as the answer to your fears. And all the bullcrap you spew, that seems so damn smart and pushes away so many posters, will not change that. You can just kiss my big fat ass if you think that you can bully me into supporting fascists because they oppose the Islam you are wetting your panties in fear about.

The answer is to support groups that push for a rule of law that treats everyone equally. In Britain, Political Correctness, the fear of offending, has allowed Radical Islam to have a status that is, essentially, _above_ the law.

It's the end result of affirmative action here in the US and the end result on Human Rights Councils in Canada. You PUSH for people that think that everyone should be treated equally because once you don't you get a tyranny of the minority.

Yeah, dicks like Le Pen have been in Europe sine Hitler folded. That doesn't mean _we_ should support them. The enemy of your enemy is NOT YOUR FRIEND. Wise up to yourself and _you_ start looking for other answers before you start laying your smug bullcrap down on everyone.

Multiculturalism in Europe has had a stifling effect on debate to such an extent that the old political parties will not defend rational immigration policies or cultural integration for fear of being treated as xenophobes and racist. Thus popular political positions end up being mainly championed by the extremist parties. We all know where this can lead but it seems that is putting itself in an either/or situation with two competing awful outcomes, slow integration into the Islamic ummah or Fascism.

Centuries of warring with each other, culminating in the two world wars, led Europeans to pacifism. Combine this notion with multiculturalism and we now have a situation where a neutered populace can't or won't enforce the laws that distinguished the individual characteristics of Europe's diverse nations.
So who steps into the void? The only parties to advocate nationalist ideals, which, unfortunately, embrace a historical perspective we are all too familar with. And what are the common traits of these parties--ethnic purity and anti-Semitism.

Every time we, America, support a tyrant we get into trouble. We listened to the Brits about Iran in 1953 and look what happened. We supported fascists in South America and we have no credibility there today. We supported Saddam because he appeared to be the only enemy of Iran, an Iran we helped create by supporting SAVAK which drove the opposition to the Mosques. And on and on.

Every time we support the right people, democracy advocates, we win. Lech and his union in Poland, the Czechs and everywhere else where we could find no tyrant to support but could only back the people and their yearning to be free...we win and are respected.

Truman supporting Israel despite pressure that it would turn the world against us...and it's the only outpost of democracy and economic advancement in the region.

To Austrian Jews, if there are any of you left, get out, NOW.

This time, make sure you do it, and do it now, Israel is waiting for you.

That's not such a no-brainer. Where lies the main threat? The incidence of synagogue firebombings might well go down, since mostly those are the work, nowadays, of Muslims, and this political trend could translate into less Muslim immigration to Austria.

Is Israel safer? Sad to say, Ahmadinejad and the mullahs of Iran are making steady progress towards a nuclear weapons capability. What's to stop them getting it? Maybe nothing. What's to stop them using it? Maybe not even prudence and the instinct of self preservation. Is Austria target number 1? No.

And finally, if it is at all possible, you might want to play the part assigned you---be a light to the world. Where you are. Austria seems to be in need of some education.

The centrist parties, if they would heed voter concern over immigration, ought to win back many of the votes now going to the far right.

Even when Muslim armies were beseiging Constantinople and Vienna, these Europeans were still plotting and scheming against each other ('specially the French). Ditto the Nazis.

Did letting europe stew in it's own problems prevent your dad from fighting in europe? History is indeed repeating itself.

re: #123 formercorpsman

Sharmuta, I have a serious question.

By asking it, I am not implying anything, because we agree on this subject.

Is it your impression, that this election success was because the electorate is pining for Nazism, or have things become so dire in Europe, the populace who cast their vote are scared to the point from what has happened over the last 20 years, this appears to be the only thing that even comes close to preventing full bore dhimitude?

Seriously.

I did not mean to make it seem as though I was ignoring you by not answering this question.

My impression is that the leftists/socialists of europe have created this mess entirely. They've allowed the islamists in and granted them privileges, and by ignoring the needs of the people of europe, created a space for the fascists to come back into power. And as Thanos said, the moderate voices get slammed by both the left and the fascists and this leaves very few options for the people. And it's exactly what the fascists want. We can only hope the left in europe will get a clue because of this, but I fear we're seeing a repeat of history.

309 useless  Wed, Oct 1, 2008 10:56:14pm

I don't know what to say about this rise of fascism. I understand that it is a psychological blowback kind of response to the white people feeling marginalized in their own country, but it smacks of making a deal with the devil to save your ass. Historically, the Nazi's made a laundry list of all the evil things that Jews did to them (none of it true) but if they were to replace Muslims with Jews, I would be hard pressed to say that they would be wrong for blaming Muslims for many of the ills of the world.

Ultimately, it sounds like one of my concerns about liberalism. I feel that a nuclear exchange or some horrific similar incident is far more probable under liberalism than it is with conservatism. The reason being that liberals seem to be apologetic for their existence and seek to always take the easy way out of any conflict. However, a true threat has to be so clear even liberals can't ignore it. As much as liberals hate themselves, they still don't commit suicide. The end result being that what ever actions they take end up being desperate last ditch measures because they failed to do anything decisive that could have made a difference, if only they had a backbone. I think this is looking like one of these incidences. Once they feel that they legitimately have their existence threatened, their elitism means that they WILL take "Final Solution" like measures. I don't like this.

310 Lewisit  Wed, Oct 1, 2008 11:18:22pm

i haven't read all of the comments, but wanna add something to think about:

here in europe any rightwing or anti-islamic movement is labled "nazi" by the left & the press (in reality - thank g-d - we only have an estimated 0.01% real sick-in-the-head-neo-nazis in germany and i'm pretty sure the number in austria isn't that different)

i myself have been called a "nazi" by leftwingers just for standing for ("the racist apartheit-state") israel or the ("facist supremacy worldpower") usa - so pls consider this before jumping on that train!

i assume the problem that you people in the usa have is that you just cannot imagine living in a society where any speaking out against the danger of islamisation is labled "racist" and being patriotic is considered "a step towards facism" - but let's wait until november, maybe you'll understand then...

You'll have a choice. The choice in Europe at the moment is restricted to mainstream parties who will label you a racist for bringing up the Islam issue. While I have no love for Nazis and I respect the sacrifice Allied troops made for our freedom from the Nazis in WWII, I have to say that I'm glad the mainstream liberal elites got a big slap in the face from ordinary citizens.

In the end I think this will help bring the anti-islam movement into the mainstream and as a consequence the balance of power will again move back to the centre.

No- the counter-jihad will not become mainstream by aligning with nazis. It will become marginalized and it will be harmful to those of us in America who also seek to combat the effects of islamization because people will think it's a nazi movement. How can we tell them it's not when they'll be able to point to the counter-jihad in europe with it's nazi allies? This makes the movement fringe and helps the islamists paint it as racist. Don't come back and tell me "islam is not a race" either. They will be able to paint the movement as racists because the euro-leaders are white nationalists. It's completely counter-productive to everything we've tried to accomplish. Worse- this gives the fascists political power and legitimacy. Damn pity.

316 Walahi  Thu, Oct 2, 2008 2:17:43am

I will say it time and again... Until European political parties begin to deal adequately with immigration, then the rise of racist parties will continue unabated.

The mainstream parties continue to say immigration is under control but people in cities towns and villages can see that 1) illegal immigrants are on the rise 2) they have rights that are seemingly greater than that of the citizen 3) the governments usually tell the people to settle down and there is no problem.

I honestly believe that Europe cannot do anything about it. They have painted themselves into a corner with various legislation and conventions (particularly the European Convention on Human Rights). You have to understand, human rights law here is like the golden calf; it is worshiped and if you dare criticize even the wording (as I have done at conferences and seminars) you get branded as a racist.

That last point brings me to another issue. The 'racist' missile that gets lobbed at a person when debate about society and social issues arises. People are fed up of being called 'racist', especially when it is applied incorrectly (which I venture to say is the overwhelming majority of the time). Parties like these in Austria use this to attract people. The pitch goes something like 'well of course they call us racist, we are trying to deal with such issues'. On that point I can agree. Dealing with immigration is not racist nor bigoted or any other sort of vile manifestation of human hatred. Where I do disagree with these parties is 1) how they reach their conclusion and 2) their solutions.

The European Union is headed towards a big fight I believe. It will pit balkanized immigrant communities against native populations. It unfortunately will be a monumental step backwards and rekindle old prejudices and naked hatred.

In the London Assembly elections, the British National Party managed to gain a seat. The popularity of the BNP continues to grow precisely because the major parties dither or ignore major issues about society.

I will be interested to see how the EU handles the twice-dead constitutional treaty, um excuse me, Lisbon Treaty (which I am sure will be forced through undemocratically despite the two failed attempts). If it is more of the same undemocratic nonsense, people will be more inclined to vote of despicable parties like the BNP and the ones in Austria.

I know some people who have told me they will vote BNP here inthe UK. I tell them that the immigration issue is a lure. Once they get you supporting them on that, then its a long ugly trip back to the 1930s. You can deal with immigration effectively without turning into the SS.

I suggest that people merely force mainstream political parties to make immigration an issue. If they don't then organize yourselves into a party (lefties do not have a monopoly on communities and organization, much less the political process).

I for one have opted to start putting my money where my mouth is. UK lizards stay posted...

re: #30 karmic_inquisitor

European liberalism has shut down divergent points of view using speech and hate laws to make the opposition to their agenda sometimes illegal and often discredited.

"Liberalism" has nothing to do with it. The history of the most significant laws pertaining to these issues is complex and has its roots way back in the 20th century (in the Weimar Republic, it was illegal not only to incite racial hatred but also to "incite class struggle" -- which was in effect in West-Germany until 1960, when &sect129a of the RStGB was turned into the &sect130 of the StGB), the most recent laws which are still in effect having been introduced right after WWII (austrian "Verbotsgesetz" of 1947) or on other occasions when European lawmakers were too emberassed of the nazi part of their population.

And this is a key part here: Europe did not liberate itself, Europe had to be liberated. Especially in Germany and Austria (which turned to Austro-Fascism years before its annexation by Nazi Germany) democracy had to be forced on to the society which, unfortunately, still consisted largely of ex-nazis, of which a significant number did not want to admit to defeat and were happy to still be nazis, or now: neo-nazis. This was simply emberassing for the new parties in power (although conservatives -- which here means something completely different from "conservative" in a US-policy context; the german F.D.P. for instance is regarded as both liberal and conservative -- were largely sympathetic by virtue of having many ex NSDAP-members in their ranks) in the democratic West and so their laws mostly targeted only the most visible and active parts of the neo-nazi movements (like the outlawing of the Sozialistische Reichspartei in 1951 and the introduction of &sect86a of the StGB).

Democracy, in its universal and absolute form, is a very young and fragile concept in Europe. Germany, the most populous and economically powerful country in Europe, did not have a real democracy until 1918/19 and that one lasted just a few years. Fascist regimes were in power even after WWII until a few decades ago (Spain and Greece). And, as mentioned above, part of the reason why it's not as cherished is that (with the notable exception of the United Kingdom) democracy has a weak tradition in Europe and often was not introduced by the people themselves (the German constitution -- the Grundgesetz --, for instance, was supposed to be voted on and regarded as transitional but the voting never took place; instead, it was just deemed a constitution after German re-unification in 1990).

RE Immigration: Blaming the left is missing half of the truth which is that while the left pretty much opposed any kind of restrictive immigration policies (a notable exception being the german "green card" of 2000-2004 which completely failed), the right (in this context mostly working with ethnic/identity politics) did not have a sensible concept (i.e. one based on political and economical needs) for one. Immigration politics in Europe is largely based on policies either opposing or affirming ethnicities/races and thus is mostly acted out by demagogues both from left and right.

The BNP in the UK is rotten to the core and disgust and contempt is the only sane response to it. They have not left their Jew hatred behind. A leopard does not change its spots. And having a Jewish councillor on board means nothing. There are plenty of self-hating Jews for them to recruit.
I understand anyone's concern to salvage British culture. But I do wonder what's left of it.
The BNP is playing squeaky clean for now,hiding its barbarity behind a veneer of respectability. Better to get the seats first and the reins of power, and then stick the boot in. And it will not just be Muslims. The kind of nationalism that the BNP represents is brutish and suspect.

I just wish the author hadn't twice mentioned his blue eyes as if they were a scary sign of his racism.

"...but Strache’s gleaming blue eyes and slogans shone through..."

Eye colour is irrelevant and beyond a person's control (unless the writer can prove that Strache has brown eyes and is wearing blue contact lenses; then it would be pertinent to the story).

This probably seems like nit-picking and I apologize if it is. I come from a blue-eyed family and this emphasis made me uncomfortable.

It seems that the Austrians are desparate. They are desparate for the sanity that eludes their current leadership. They know that if no one starts addressing the islamization of Europe, they will be like an Israel in the vast sea of European countries taken over by islam. In 100 years perhaps Austria will be like Israel, one country standing alone against the mulsim oppressors and their sick and twisted religous fervor.

Jews may be opposed to the neo-fascists in Austria, but at this point it seems that this politcal force is their only hope against the larger more sinister force, islam.

rolus, if the Austrians put their faith in a group like this, they, and Israel, are both going to end up the same way, when Iran gets the bomb. (Hint: it won't be good).

And Jews putting their hope in neo-facists to save them (neo-facists who, by the way, support Iran, some of them)---is that the latest talking point now? I remember some other poster arguing that. Whatever the source, it's absurd.

This is not good. These idiots want to bring the Nazi salute and stuff back? At least other white nationalists are putting up an act, even if it's phony, about not being Nazi symps, but these guys look like they aren't even bothering to put up a front.

I figure it is a backlash against the Leftist Multiculturalist Reich, but jeez, all they are doing is replacing left wing Nazis with right wing Nazis. Are there any real alternatives to right and left wing fascists in Europe?

And as far as Omni's comment (#303) is concerned, what are you talking about? Fascism is preferable to Sharia? Based on what? Fascism is just like Sharia without the Islamic component. As a student of history, I don't see much difference between them, and you can throw communism into that hateful totalitarian stew as well. Given the long track record of fascism spreading death and misery, your comment is quite ridiculous.

That's my point exactly. They really aren't anti-jihad. So why are groups like this being lauded as Europe's only hope? If they support, and aid, Iran in getting nukes, there's not gonna be much hope for anybody.

(Such an alliance also shows they aren't pro-Israel).

They are not anti-jihad. They are racists and antisemitic. They are using the people's concern over uncontrolled immigration opportunistically in order to gain power and activate their fascist nationalist agenda. It is not just the Muslims who will be persecuted but the Jews too.

This is depressing news. But it shows that when the mainstream parties won't do something about the concerns of ordinary voters, the only option left to voters is to shock the system by taking their concerns to even the most wretched of parties. Had the mainstream parties not been pced into silence on these issues, but incorporated and moderated those voter concerns, these SOCIALIST parties would still be at the margins.
And I also take issue with the Board calling these parties RIGHT wing.
SOCIALIST PARTIES ARE LEFT WING. HITLER'S NATIONAL SOCIALIST PARTY WAS LEFT WING. IT WAS CALLED PROGRESSIVE by people here in the United States ON THE LEFT WING. FASCISM is a LEFT WING Phenomnon. Look up LIBERAL FASCISM, maybe even read the book.
You'll see that FASCISM/NATIONAL SOCIALISM have nothing to do with American conservative values. Liberals have been doing their best to discredit conservatism and republicanism for nearly sixty years by labelling them fascists/nazis, when they are the true heirs to those obnoxious and morally repellent doctrines.

It is absurd, yet it happened again and again in history. Even in Nazi Germany and straight through the holocaust until the very end, jewish organizations and individuals "helped" the insanity surrounding them. The victim helping the perpetrator carrying out his crime can be observed everywhere when crimes continue for a longer period of time and those who are targeted are aware of their systematic nature. They rationalize their behaviour by speculating that by cooperating and being helpful they will be able to save themselves or the ones they care for. It is a dangerous idea, one that often leads from freely choosing the opportunist way (journalists are the first) over being intimidated and threatened up to outright coercion. The Germans had this figured out pretty quickly and set up mandatory and centralized organisations for jews under state control from the very beginning. This ended up in the nightmarishly cruel institutions of the "Judenrat" and the "Funktionshäftling".

The challenge of freedom is tough because it always ammounts to idiots being abound, even those who knowingly or unknowingly help to abolish it. But even if you care more for security than freedom, democracy is the best bet, as it has been empirically proven that democracies are the least likely to massacre parts of their own population or wage war and the least likely to wage war.

Being decent and hard-working, alas, do not protect people from facing the horrendous results of bad decisions.

(Also, if they are going to ally themselves with Facists, decent and hard-working folk should ask themselves if they'd pass any kind of race test; and do they have any "useless eaters" in their family?

In Denmark, a local drug gang called the Hell's Angels has been waging a mob war against competing Muslim drug dealers. Danish kids see that the Hell's Angels are the only people fighting Muslim crime, so hundreds of them are offering to join up with these drug dealers, hoping to become criminals to fight crime.

The genesis of the problem (in my humble opinion) is not simply European and American fecklessness in the face of a fascist invader - and in this case I reference radical Islam.

Whether it be a suicidal political correctness, a dilution of free speech (tolerance of opposing thoughts), neo-Marxist pandering, or a campaign to create common mind thought - all spring from a kernel of far left advocacy.

Many of those far a port (on both continents) are not simply taking inaction. They are proponents of the dissolution of capitalism and the Judeo-Christian ethos that they feel stands between our world and the utopia they envision.

They view the Islamism of our culture as the proverbial strange bed fellow that can assist them in neutering the Judeo-Christian influence, while (they feel) creating a voter base that follows the far left parties.

And the kernel? The universities and colleges. Who creates the journalists that so predominantly preach the party line? The political science majors who believe that thuggish tactics are justified for the greater good?

We have leaders that are speaking the language to which the minions might rally. But they are shouted down, ridiculed, or censored by our main stream disseminators of information.

The common folk may be in danger of falling for thugs in a hope for a return to sanity - but the far left has already done so with enthusiasm and decades of forethought.

re: #347 Charles

Maybe you haven't noticed, but most people in this world don't have much respect for Nazis.

While this is true, I believe the reason for this being history's well-known verdict that declared the Nazis the ultimate losers in the biggest conflict on earth. Nobody wants to associate with losers.

National Socialism was mainstream once and became mainstream within a democracy. Their morals, aims and prospected means were clear and well-known from the very beginning (except in some cases, like the "Notververfasung" found in the jacket of Theodor von der Pfordten, one of the nazis killed at the failed beer-hall-putsch, or the Boxheimer Documents) and large proportions of the german populace continutally became to be in favor of them and later participated in them.

It's crucial to look at the actual content being displayed. While nazi insignias, runes, salutes, despicable associates and the likes are good indicators of fascists, fascists are not stupid and know these indicators to be an obstacle in their struggle for power. Even those agreeing in substance with neonazi propositions would probably be repelled to vote for a party waving the swastika flag.

I have to differ on your point about "desperation." I don't buy it. The majority of the people who are joining up with these groups are in absolutely no immediate danger from militant Islamists in their daily lives. They may be unhappy about their governments' multiculturalism and the influx of unchecked immigration from Islamic countries, but "desperation" is just not an accurate word for that state.

The Nazis were not desperate about the "Jewish problem," either. It was not desperation that drove fascists then, and it isn't now.

Bullshit. National Socialism is not a version of Marxism; both are two directly opposed versions of Socialism. National Socialism was an idealist ideology that sought to overcome class struggle through chauvinistic national and racial unity (including those in the "ruling class" into the organic whole of the state); while Marxism was a materialist and internationalist ideology that sought to overcome class struggle by abolishing all classes (which was supposed to be achieved through the abolition of wage labor but ultimately just resulted in the abolition of property).

re: #194 maddogg

Thats a big brush. I hate communism, but I see nazis as the other side of the same coin.

It's not that big of a brush to me. Literally, the only parts of Nazism that differ from Marx and Engels, were its views on Religion and the Nation State. The latter is a distinction without a difference though. Communists beleived in a world where the Proletariat would come together and abolish their borders and join together, and the latter literally (despite their rhetoric) wanted to conquer the world which would of course evaporate borders as well.

The Nazis opposed State Atheism, and Hitler viewed his Thousand Year Reich as being a place of religious freedom. He even wrote about the cultural hatred of the Jews perpetuated in Vienna as being religious bigotry which he did not support, in Mein Kampf. Why did Hitler hate the Jews? As Marx himself said, the religion of your average Jew is Capitalism, and the Bank his Temple. Jews were the bringers and perpetuaters of the class war. They were the puppetmasters that made the entire Capitalism machine run.

It's worth noting though, that Hitler was the only prominent Nazi to not leave his Church (and even he was non-practicing). Speer, and the rest of the upper echelons of Nazi leadership had all either abandoned religion and traditional German culture in favor of what would presumably be post-Hitler religious social engineering, as they viewed Christianity as being burdensome and weak.


We are enemies of today's capitalistic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are determined to destroy this system under all conditions.

-Adolph Hitler


This is our calling, that we shall become the templars of this Grail, gird the sword round our loins for its sake and stake our lives joyfully in the last, holy war which will be followed by the thousand-year reign of freedom.

-Freidrich Engels

Given conventional 'wisdom' and what is taught in today's Academia, one would think that those quotes are misattributed.

You can take a thousand other quotes from Hitler, Marx, Engels and the Nazi upper echelon and match them like this and not be able to tell a Marxist from a Nazi. You can make a game out of it, like trivial pursuit.

The Nazis were Marxists, through and through. The rest is just window dressing. They are the same side of the same coin.

Those 'Center-Right' parties are still essentially PC Multiculturalist, Democratic Socialists. Even most of the 'Neo-Nazi' coalition parties aren't actually right of center, but are socialists too. Center-Right in Europe is all about a few issues being right, while the majority of the platform is leftist. It's like calling a Socialist-leaning Democrat, that happens to be Pro-Life a right-winger.

Too bad that Europe has to resort to neo-Nazi philosophy in order for them to wake up to the dangers of Islam. I'm all for an anti-Moslem immigration party, but why the Nazi symbols? Can't they just think of some way to stop the influx of Islam without resorting to fascism?
