In 2003, the European Union backed an EU-3—Britain, France, and Germany— deal that promised political and economic cooperation to Iran in exchange for ending its nuclear enrichment projects. After the accord failed in 2005, the EU supported UN Security Council action against Iran and has supported all of the UNSC sanctions against Iran’s nuclear program. As part of the EU, Austria has supported Iran’s right to nuclear technology under the safeguards of the International Atomic Energy Agency. Austria has supported using dialogue to engage the Islamic Republic over its nuclear program, but Iranian Press TV quoted Austrian Foreign Minister Ursula Plassnik stating on the sidelines of the UN conference in 2008 that “the International community is prepared for dialogue, but Iran must take the hand that is being extended. Austria also rejected separate EU sanctions against the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program in October 2007. Unlike the EU-3—Britain, France, and Germany—Austria has identified itself as neutral on the nuclear issue; Austrian support for American policy towards Iran is among the lowest in the European Union. In February 2009, Greece, Cyprus, Spain, Austria, and Sweden opposed a list of additional stricter sanctions proposed by the EU3 against the Islamic Republic. But wait there's more...... Austrian companies have also legally sold military equipment to Iran, including a large shipment of the Steyr HS50 sniper rifle in 2006. However, when these rifles were later discovered in the hands of Iraqi insurgents, Britain made an official complaint to Austria to end arms shipments to Iran. What was Iran's objective again...? That's right the extermination of Israel. Austria is a member of the European Union, which has condemned the Iranian nuclear enrichment program for its secrecy.

Rabbi and 8 students harassed with anti-Semitic abuse in Berlin

By Reuters

“Two men shouted anti-Semitic abuse at a Rabbi and eight students traveling with him in Berlin early on Sunday and threw an object at their van, police said.

The two men, driving a Mercedes Benz, braked in front of the Rabbi’s van and then reversed back towards it while shouting anti-Semitic insults, police said in a statement.

“The 36-year-old [Rabbi] then saw the driver light up an unknown object and throw it towards his van,” the police said, adding that the rabbi could not explain what the object was.

Anti-Semitic crime has been rising in Germany, which has seen an influx of some 220,000 Jews from the former Soviet Union since 1990 after being home to just a very small Jewish community in the decades after the Holocaust.

Violent right-wing crime jumped 9 percent last year, and the Interior Ministry said last month it was up significantly again in the first half of this year.”

Austria isn’t the only country with an antisemitic problem in Central Europe.

Because such reactions are just helping those in Austria who say, that people abroad are prejudiced against their country. Some anti-Americans here demonstrated against the war in Iraq and shouted similar things against America. We should have a discourse with reason. One can see not only in Austria such developments but also in other European countries. Tom that is an extremely crude and silly answer.
