Austria's anti-immigration party triumphed on Sunday in the first round of a presidential election

Yes, the country's common sense Freedom Party is going to be smeared as "far-right" all the way up to the second round of voting, and don't be surprised to see leftist parties form alliances with so-called centrist "Christian Democrats" to block the election of Norbert Hofer. That's basically what happened in the recent French regional elections, with leftist and so-called center-right parties working together to stop Marine Le Pen's National Front.

  1. It is a good they are seeing the problem. The trouble is there is likely to be some antisemitism mixed up with it. For all I know they might end up blaming Jews and Israel for their troubles with Muslims.

    1. What will further their cause, I am sure. Though we need to ignore the "you're a racist!) crowd to get anywhere. Screw them.

  2. I think I put my last comment on the wrong entry. I meant it for here. That is I am worried about Austria's blaming Jews for their problems wit Muslims. Sorry about the mix up.
