Did you know
*The newly formed coalition government, the Freedom Party of Austria
(FOP) has 6 of the 12 cabinet ministers. Included is an FOP Minister of
the Interior. One FOP cabinet minister is a holocaust denier.
*In 1986 Jorg Haider took over the small Freedom party of Austria, a
tiny fascist rump. He then broadened it out and tried to give it
respectability, covering up the fascist elements and influence in the
party.
*In 1995 Haider spoke to former Veterans of the Hitler SS Waffen Death
squad. He said, "There are still decent people of good character who
also stick to their convictions, despite the greatest opposition and
have remained true to their convictions today."
*In 1996 Haider was forced to resign as the Governor of the Austrian
state of Carinthia region when he praised the Nazis and Hitler's
destruction of the trade unions.
*Haider has also said that "I believe that a multi-cultural society is a
fiction that cannot work".
*Haider's parents were both members of the Nazi party.
