Comments on: Far Right Scandals Continue in Austria http://blog.z-word.com/2009/01/far-right-scandals-continue-in-austria/ Commentary about Zionism, anti-Zionism, antisemitism and the conflict in the Middle East Tue, 22 May 2012 15:48:33 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5-RC1.1 By: Christa Alexander http://blog.z-word.com/2009/01/far-right-scandals-continue-in-austria/#comment-3392 Christa Alexander Mon, 26 Jan 2009 10:27:21 +0000 http://blog.z-word.com/?p=932#comment-3392 I'm so sorry for posting off topic but I have a question; I'm now reading a book by Stephan Grigat and Simone Dinah Hartmann: "Der Iran - analyse einer islamischen Diktatur und ihrer europäischen Förderer" (I don't know the english title of the book). What is your opinion about it? I consider it very good, but it would be very important to me to know the meaning of another people about it - as I haven't so much experience with this theme.

My subject matter was the extreme right in Austrian parliament. In the 3 democratic parties (conservative peoples party, social-democratic party, the GREENs) in Austrian parliament you have MPs who are pro Palestinian and others who are pro Israel and you have also those who wish to see peace between Israelis and Palestinians. During the recent armed conflict in Gaza, the 3 democratic parties did not take sides. At the demonstrations you could not see official representatives of the political parties. As a matter of fact most demonstrators were Muslim migrants or of Muslim backgrounds and some extreme leftists. The extreme right FPÖ took a decided stand against Israel. This will be subject of one of my articles. The OMV is again a different matter and you probably can find more information on the website of the action against this deal. Christa Alexander
