Welcome to the new issue of evil:austria!

First, we want to thank everybody for the overwhelming positive reactions to the first issue of evil:austria. The reactions clearly pointed out the importance and necessity of this project and give us the strength to continue!! We were absolutely happy about the many offers to help with the various translations, and especially about tranlations emerging suddenly :-)))) So, the last version now exists in German, English, Spanish, French, and Finnish. Whoever wants a specific translation should simply send us an email or have a look at our brand-new homepage. At http://www.raw.at you will find the different translations of evil:austria in the section 'Newsletter' (and of course a lot of other interesting stuff!). If somebody has the possibility to translate the newsletter into any other language, please let us know. Sure thing, we also want to thank all the people who distributed the newsletter all over the world!

For those who don't know what this is all about a few words of explanation:

evil:austria is our monthly newsletter which supplies info about the actual situation in Austria and the consequences of the new government. We have decided to produce this newsletter because we realized that the knowledge about the real situation in Austria, especially abroad, is very limited. The government has achieved its target that with the discussion about the "sanctions" of the European Union the daily madness in this country has vanished from the agenda of the international public. We want to avoid this resulting in a "normalization" of the right/right-extreme Austrian government. We also do this for egoistic reasons, because international monitoring prevents things from getting even worse at least for the moment. Therefore, it is very important to spread this Newsletter as far as possible, so that as many people as possible are informed about the situation in Austria. Thus: distribute it, distribute it, distribute
it! Feel free to use this material for other publications, but please, send us a mail if you do so.

Send criticism and all remarks, if possible in German or English, to:

raw@raw.at

Have fun!

[1] Government wants to forbid demonstrations
****************************************************************

In a recent press conference some members of OeVP demanded a ban of the "illegal" (they are not announced to the police) weekly Thursday's demonstrations, because as the speaker for public safety, Wolfgang Ulm, stated, 57 police officers have been injured. Astonishingly, police reject this demand and refer to a decision of the supreme court in 1985 which ruled that non-announcement of a demonstration is not sufficient for a ban. Moreover, it would be a problem to break apart 2000-3000 protesters with 100-150 police officers. However, now they go for intimidation! The leader of the office for state safety of the Viennese police, Hofrat Zander, who is also responsible for the recent police riot (see evil:austria 0600), threatens activists with an enforcement of police forces and the announcement to take vigorous action. Meanwhile, publicly known activists receive one police file after the other.

****************************************************************
[2] On a visit to an expert of democracy
****************************************************************

In order to defend Austria's reputation with "teeth and claws" (Wolfgang Schuessel), Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Benita Ferrero-Waldner, with her Cheshire-like cat grin, tried another charming offensive. Highly esteemed people of the international public and especially the media should be convinced to attest Austria's capability of democratic behavior. Already some time ago the tour was carefully planned by a PR-agency. In London Ferrero-Waldner met an expert in democracy, the former prime minister Margret Thatcher, who described her buddy, the former Chilean dictator, Agusto Pinochet with the words: "He brought democracy to Chile." Austria can learn a lot from him!? Maybe he can suggest some possible actions against the annoying anti-governmental activists...Whether the European Union will be too pleased about this meeting with an EU opponent is a different question. But democracy needs sacrifices, especially from the opposition.

****************************************************************
[3] Herr Windholz' humble servants
****************************************************************

Not only the new chairman of the "Section Lower Austria" of the Austrian Freedom Party (FPOe), Ernest Windholz, has problems with a far-right range of ideas (he used the slogan "our honor means faith" of the "Waffen-SS" - armed corps of Hitler's SS - in his inaugural speech; for details see evil:austria 0600). Another high-ranking member of his section, Barbara Rosenkranz, is married to Horst-Jakob Rosenkranz who is the publisher of the far-right magazine "fakten" ("facts"). More of these interesting connections have been revealed by the weekly magazine "profil" in the issue from June, 12: Before Bernhard Blochberger became a political representative, he was a candidate for the neo-fascistic corps (NDP) of the late Norbert Burger. When NDP was banned in 1988, Blochberger took an interest in the "citizen referendum - A heart for the native" which is well known for hostility against foreigners. He used to sign his "competent" articles with "German greetings". Already in his NDP times he probably met his friend Frank-Dieter Stanzel who even became "1. Bundesschriftwart" (an expression used for something like secretary during the National Socialism). At the end of April this year, when Stanzel was inaugurated in a local council, his past was made public once again. When he was asked whether he refrains from his NDP past, he simply answered: "I did not blow up or hang somebody - this was all legal." Today Blochberger and also Wolfgang Haberler are colleagues in the Lower Austrian provincial parliament. Earlier, they both wrote articles for "Der Voelkerfreund"("Friend of the Nations"), a periodical published by people who have been described as a "small group of the far-right" by the Documentation Centre of the Austrian Resistance (DOeW). Haberler is also in the local council in a city in Lower Austria, and the FPOe local in this town distributed flyers in 1990 which stated: "Austria was German, is German, and will be German". In 1997, Alois Preiszler and Edwin Rambossek, two other members of FPOe, took part in the general meeting of the comradeship Prince Eugen, according to DOeW an "extremely right-wing veteran organization". In the sixties, Rainer Mauritz, now a financial expert of FPOe, was involved in attacks in South Tyrol and convicted to five and a half years in prison. In 1993, the police found swastika flags and other NS propaganda material in the house of his previous press officer. He was accused by an FPOe member of the local council who got expelled from the party for this accusation.

****************************************************************
[4] International connections of the FPOe (1)
****************************************************************

About 150 emissaries of Lega Nord made a trip in order to meet with the FPOe of Carinthia. According to Martin Strutz, the aim of the meeting was "the exchange of thoughts in political and organizational matters". Of course they talked a lot about the sanctions of European Community against Austria, which they both reject. The representatives of Lega Nord came from Vicenza where Joerg Haider attended their election campaign in the fall of 1999. At this occasion, according to the magazine "Padania" published by Lega Nord, he yelled: "Viva la Padania".

****************************************************************
[5] International connections of the FPOe (2)
****************************************************************

In an interview the president of the German Office of Constitutional Security, Heinz Fromm, emphasized that the success of FPOe influences the politically right scene in Germany. Moreover, he states that there are some connections between supporters of FPOe and German right-wing extremists.

****************************************************************
[6] Right-extremist speaks to FPOe academics
****************************************************************

Only now it became publically known that a German right-wing extremist, Horst Mahler, was invited by an FPOe-associated academic association to give a lecture in Vienna on Nov 23, 1999. The topic of his speech: "The betrayal of the German left by Adolf Hitler. The betrayal of Germany by the left. Is there a future for the German nation/race?" During his speech he could not withhold his enthusiasm for A. Hitler: "Hitler took hold of and united the national and revolutionary powers of this nation."

****************************************************************
[7] FPOe and the past
****************************************************************

FPOe local in the village of Seekirchen announced the community will not participate in the NS forced labor fond. Instead, FPOe vice-mayor and representative of legislature, Helmut Naderer, demands compensation from the German federal government as well as the current governments of the former allies for those people whose relatives were carried off to Russia and the other victorious countries or lost their lives in the war. He (H. Naderer) argues that for Seekirchen "it is historically proven that the municipality never used forced laborers". Thus, "there is no reason to financially support this action". On the contrary, many people from Seekirchen were still detained in custody and used as forced laborers in Russia and the other victorious countries long after the war was over. "Many of them did not survive the inhuman conditions and died. Others returned home from the forced labor camps up to ten years later."

****************************************************************
[8] Ten-thousands of files about NS-robberies in Viennese archives
****************************************************************

Over centuries secret files of the ill-famed central office for Jewish emigration and the department for expropriation have been stored in the bureau of financial affairs in Vienna. These files include transportation lists with the names of those Jewish citizens who were deported to extermination and disciplinary camps from Vienna. First estimations suggest the existence of over 100.000 files that have been kept in storage without knowledge of the relatives of the deported and expropriated. The files not only contain information about the deportation of Jewish persons from Austria, but also about the assistance of banks in expropriation affairs. Moreover, they make it evident that Austrian authorities were well informed about the extent of the expropriation already shortly after the war. First reaction of the president of the Israelitic community, Ariel Muzicant: "This is so outrageous that these facts alone should trigger complaints in the three-digit billion range." The Israelitic community will not file complaints, however they demand a full-scale enlightenment campaign about the Holocaust.

****************************************************************
[9] Opinion Poll of the month
****************************************************************

According to a public-opinion poll of INTEGRAL institute, 8% of Austrians believe that mass execution of Jewish people during the Third Reich is not historically proven. Most of them are elderly people or FPOe-voters. Another 10% did not answer this question.

****************************************************************
[10] FPOe as "block leader"
****************************************************************

While OeVP tries to improve their knowledge about democracy, FPOe looks for cosmopolitanism. In the Viennese district Simmering, FPOe tries to give their best. A Turkish woman living in one of the council houses has been provoking her neighbors for a long time. Simply because her son did not want to share his gameboy with other kids, the racist mob had a reason to take actions against "foreign control". During repair works on her balcony, some dirt fell on the balcony of the flat underneath and this was sufficient reason to alarm FPOe. Herr Anetsdorfer, a member of FPOe, wrote a letter reading: "We learned that you are unfortunately unable to observe the simple customary (!) conditions for the usage of your apartment. Therefore, we ask you to avoid such disturbances (!) in future and eventually you might want to increase your consideration of Central European (!) habits." The letter closed: "We do hope that we allowed you a glimpse into the world of thoughts of your neighbors, and we remain in the
hope for an improvement of your manners."
Herr Anetshofer's world of thoughts was recently revealed by the Viennese weekly city magazine "Falter". During a brainstorming for new FPOe-leaflets, he had flashes of inspiration like "Who exterminates nation and country? SPOe and asylum-seekers!" (in German, this rhymes!) A suggestion to arrange a discussion forum at a place frequented by Turkish people, he answered saying: "At the best, I am going to smash a grenade into that place."
This is the voice of the nation!

****************************************************************
[11] About the freedom of the art
****************************************************************

According to his own statements the art director of the "Salzburg Festivals", Gerard Mortier, feels "watched like in a police state". "Since political statements might be rated as breach of contract" a lawyer now reviews all his letters that may be politically biased.

****************************************************************
[12] The black-and-blue understanding of freedom of speech (1)
****************************************************************

With the votes of FPOe and OeVP, the politically occupied curatorship of the state broadcasting ORF decided to investigate against the radio series "Journal Panorama" regarding the objectivity of the selection of topics and dialogue partners. Speakers of ORF's editors of the information section called this an "unprecedented occurrence in the history of broadcasting". They see this as an attempt by the government to stop unwanted critical reporting and as an attack on the freedom of media.

****************************************************************
[13] The black-and-blue understanding of freedom of speech (2)
****************************************************************

For the first time in Europe, a party (FPOe) sues a magazine under to the fair trading law (!). The reason for this is an advertisement campaign of magazine NEWS. Boehmdorfer - at that time simple lawyer and now Minister of Justice - was engaged with this action. These proceedings were possible due to the verdict of a judge who thought that FPOe, as the owner of a party newspaper, competes with other newspapers. In a conversation between FPOe and NEWS, the FPOe negotiator declared: "If NEWS stops its government-critical reporting, FPOe will suspend the execution demand." Just recently, Boehmdorfer, as Minister of Justice, increased the execution penalties for such cases from ATS 80.000 to 1.3 million per day. This will surely threaten the existence of critical media in the future.

****************************************************************
[14] Community servants for sale
****************************************************************

Recently, the Ministry of the Interior cut back the daily money for community servants from ATS 155.- (about 22 DM or 11 US dollars) to ATS 43.- (about 6 DM or 3 US dollars). The nutritional expert of the Ministry of the Interior also provided the daily shopping list: 53 grams of roasted chicken, 4 grams of spinach (strained), 143 grams of bread, 9 grams of cabbage, 18 grams of pasta, 14 grams of tuna fish, 142 millilitres of fresh milk, half a bag of tea, 0.7 eggs. This list was taken from the supply list for emergency cases issued by the Civil Defense Association. Since many social organizations are no longer officially supported by this community service, the Minister of the Interior Strasser had another brilliant idea: Organizations which need community servants can obtain them for just ATS 10,500.
The slave market is open.
Note: In Austria, military service is compulsory for young men. The military service lasts 8 months, the alternative civilian service 12 months. So anyone who does not want to carry a weapon or to be sentenced to prison for total resistance against military service has to serve 4 additional months. The community servants are mainly assigned to police, hospitals, ambulances, and social institutions like ai or the Documentation Centre of Austrian Resistance (DOeW). Many of these jobs were now abolished, and therefore the affected institutions are faced with financial problems. The cutbacks are quite aimed. Human rights organizations and hospitals in Vienna (the city is ruled by the Social Democrats) are mostly effected, the police not at all. Many community servants now have to wait for a long time until they can actually resume their service. Nevertheless, civilian service is still a form of forced labor and leads to wage dumping in many professions.

****************************************************************
[15] Cold showers in Carinthia
****************************************************************

In Carinthia, the magazine "Life in Line" has been distributed in front of schools for a while. In various articles, young Carinthians can read and learn what it takes to become a real man. A real man does not do civilian service, but: "Airborne training is one of the most challenging educations". Also sexuality plays an important role in becoming a man, as explained in "Life in Line": "Two models of contradictory morals come to mind: On the one hand, the rational boy who takes a cold shower every day and who keeps looking for his princess. On the other side, the absolute "engraver" staggers about. Who has the better cards ... to establish an obliging, happy relationship? The ace of hearts is with the fair prince who understands the old school of conquest of hearts in his magnanimity and who is going to make his girl happy."
This utter nonsense is supported by the Carinthian provincial government (led by FPOe), ORF Carinthia, and the newspaper "Kleine Zeitung". In an one and a half pages long article, Joerg Haider is allowed to condemn drugs and present himself as a shining example. The newspaper portrays him as "the most outstanding head of a provincial government in our country's history. Athletic, fit, almost everywhere at the same time, always perfectly well informed, always seeming to be straight back from holidays."

****************************************************************
[16] The police and the special group for criminal investigation - SEK (1)
****************************************************************

The members of SEK always attract attention: masked SEK policemen arrested people during the anti-fascist carnival, the refugee and foreigner advice-office of the Green Party was the target of an offence, a sauna frequented by homosexuals was closed, shooting of a supposed drug dealer (Imre B.), racist and sexist rhetoric ("you bimbo/nigger whore") - the rambos of civilian police are busy (for details see evil:austria 0600).
The case of Imre B. goes on: According to the police, the gun went off accidentally when the supposed drug dealer opened the door of his car. Even inner circles of the police raise doubts as to this dubious version of the incident, and the autopsy clearly speaks against the official version. Now it became publically known that the same night the shooter himself (!) - who was said to suffer from a post-shooting-trauma - interrogated eye-witnesses, a clear violation of the convention against torture (!) and also searched houses the following day. Therefore, it now seems comprehendable that Imre B.'s passenger "confirmed the official version of the incidence", especially since it is known that "witnesses" were beaten, threatened, and humiliated during the interrogation.

****************************************************************
[17] The police and the special group for criminal investigation - SEK (2)
****************************************************************

If police are not able to convict somebody for a crime by legal methods, this does not present much of a problem any longer. More than a hundred black people have been arrested during "Operation Spring" (a large-scale racist-motivated "drug raid" performed since last year). Except for one, all of them have been prosecuted and convicted for drug-dealing on the basis of no or little evidence. If it is not possible to dig up any evidence at all, police try to buy principal witnesses. In particular, they promise reduction of confinement for drug-addicts or persons who are involved in drug-dealing themselves, or they simply pay them off. In a recent lawsuit the testimony of such a witnesses, named "Anonymous 1" and masked with a crashhelmet, was sufficient to bring somebody to jail for five years. The system of justice is turned upside down! At another occasion the counsel for the defence asked such a "witness" what he received from the police for his testimony. The witness answered: "Am I expected to answer this in public? And anyway, this is not your cup of tea!"
The only acquittal of a black person was due to tremendous contradictions of the "witness of the prosecution". And, no wonder, these particular "witnesses" are often accompanied to court by members of the SEK, and thus are being intimidated. Recently, a police officer angrily banged shut the door of a court room, after one of "his witnesses" had a sudden change of mind, whereas another one patted the shoulder of "his witness" and invited him for a beer.
Right now, these methods are "only" used against black people. The way was prepared by the racist propaganda that has been going on for years under the former SPOe/OeVP government. It is simply a matter of time until opponents of the government and politically active people will be treated in the same way.

****************************************************************
[18] Denouncing
****************************************************************

A slight change of law makes it feasible: for the first time, a regular citizen - who, unlike the police, is not subject to police laws regulating the conduct of officers - can do investigations as an 'extension' of the police. For the first time, the judiciary allows hobby amateur investigators to disclose "observations" in court, totally anonymous and in the absence of defendants.
Nobody except police officers knows them, nobody knows what their reward is - according to insiders, they will earn money and the goodwill of the police...
Big Brother is watching you. Big Brother is denouncing you.

****************************************************************
[19] Drug dealers and the Audi A8
****************************************************************

In an interview for the weekly newspaper "Format" (no. 25/19.6.00), Viennese chief constable Peter Stiedl was asked if the harassment of Black Africans by the police had racist motivations. Stiedl answered: "Statistics prove we do not proceed against Black Africans for racist reasons, but because a great number of Black Africans sell drugs." And: "If Black Africans sell drugs at a certain time and place, then the appropriate controls will be made, and they will be made on black people and not on white people." "Format": "So you are saying that the color of
skin is a criterion for the police". Stiedl: "Let me put it like that: If more cars of the brand "Audi A8" get stolen, more Audi A8 will be checked... If Black Africans are suspected of drug-dealing at a certain locality, police are going to check Africans who show up."

****************************************************************
[20] Arson attack on hostel for foreigners
****************************************************************

On June 27, an arson was committed on a building in Salzburg inhabited by foreigners. The inhabitants were able to escape from the house in time. As usual, police rule out the possibility of a political background from the start.

****************************************************************
[21] Please love Austria! (1) - the project
****************************************************************

"Please love Austria! - First European week of coalition" - is the title of a production of German director Christoph Schlingensief and part of the Viennese Festival ("Wiener Festwochen" 11.-17.6.). In the city centre, next to the opera, Schlingensief shacked up 12 asylum-seakers in deportation containers. Via internet and screens, applicants were to be observed. By TED telephone voting, two applicants were to be elected for deportation every day. On top of the container was a picket reading "Foreigners out" and below that a banner with the logo of the "Neue Kronenzeitung" (popular Austrian daily with the highest circulation). Next to this, there was an FPOe flag. Schlingensief wanted to "just practically play through the demands of FPOe". At the same time, the project was a mirror for everybody, because - as the director says - "the observer observes himself" and "the truth lies in the dark".
The borders between fiction and reality quickly disappeared. The "Austrian natives" who were the actual principal actresses and actors gave their best - or their worst. A permanent crowd gathered around the container village. There were heated arguments and yelling ("Nazi, Nazi, we are who we are, we do not need any negros here. No Jews either"), and also vehement pro and contra discussions in the internet forums. Tuesday night saw attacks on the container village (attempted arsons, two men with knives forced their way into the area of the containers and tried to destroy the "Foreigners out" banner). Early Thursday afternoon, strangers threw butyric acid bombs into the container village.
Almost as reflex actions, political debates followed: OeVP thought that the Schlingensief project was "questionable and counterproductive", it would lead many tourists to "completely wrong impressions and to unjustified emotions against Austria" (OeVP Secretary General Maria Rauch-Kallat). FPOe announced a motion of no confidence against OeVP cultural councillor Peter Marboe. Hilmar Kabas (party leader of Viennese FPOe local): "The indignation of citizens has reached a boiling-point." The "Kronenzeitung" calls Marboe a "tax money wasting washout". Typical phrases out of "Kronenzeitung" and FPOe's repertoire of flowery language were used: indignant citizens, (ab)use of tax money, denigration of Austria, exploitation of envious feelings, this is not art...

****************************************************************
[22] Please, love Austria! (2) - the consequences
****************************************************************

The project of Christoph Schlingensief is also going to give rise to a pile of charges. FPOe sued the Viennese Festival for slander of honour and damage of credibility, an anonymous private person reported "derision of the state". The banner of "Kronenzeitung" was removed already on the second day of the action and the newspaper sued because of the usage of their logo, argueing that this is "illegal and injurious to the interests of the company". Schlingensiefs comment: "I am sad about the behaviour of "Kronenzeitung", one does not loose such good friends every day."
While the chairman of Lower Austrian FPOe, Windholz, got away with using a slogan of Waffen-SS ("Our honor means faith", see evil:austria 0600) with the excuse that it was an ad-lib thought (the fact that he is good friends with a "veteran" of the SS who is known to enjoy telling stories about "the good old days" does not surprise many people), the action artist Christoph Schlingensief is sued for violation of the law against the revival of National Socialist propaganda (this particular law only exists in Austria). The reason for this charge was a banner with a satirical reference to this quote he had fixed to the "Please love Austria" containers. The Minister of Justice, Boehmdorfer, insisted on calling up various newspapers in order to personally inform them about the proceedings in the Schlingensief case.

Oddly: Four FPOe members of the State Parliament filed charges against Schlingensief for "committing of punishable offences, in particular suspicion of incitement". The "Foreigners out" banner would obviously invite hostile actions against foreigners in Austria. FPOe propaganda, however, used slogans like "Stop the foreign infiltration", "Against abuse of asylum rights" and "Vienna must not become Chicago" in various election campaigns.

****************************************************************
[23] Please, love Austria! (3) - "Indians take the fort"
****************************************************************

Participants of the weekly Thursday-demonstrations against the government climbed on the roof of the container, destroyed the "Foreigners out" picket and sprayed "Resistance" and "Fight racism" on it. Some of them forced their way into the container and symbolically "rescued" the surprised asylum-seekers. Other demonstrators removed the hoods from the truck of an OeVP-associated group that said the Schlingensief production was ONLY a "dangerous game with emotions". The "storm of the Indians on the Western fort" (Schlingensief) was doubtlessly meant as an intervention into the "deportation game" showing solidarity with it. Still, the opinions differed and caused discussions.

****************************************************************
[24] Why an economic conference was stopped
****************************************************************

After visiting the container of Christoph Schlingensief, about 200 demonstrators made a run at the stylish Marriott hotel where an international economic conference of the National Bank took place. They interrupted Minister of Finance Grasser (FPOe) who was about to threaten with plans for reforms of pensions for employees of Austrian Federal Railways (OeBB). Whistling and a chorus of voices ("Resistance", "We want Schuessel") stopped his speech. After about twenty minutes, the demonstraters left the hotel. Federal Chancellor Schuessel cancelled his appearance, the conference was stopped and not continued until the next day. Actions because of "trespassing" and "resistance against the executive power" were announced.
