An Austrian politician's bold recommendation
The leader of the party formerly belonging to Jorge Haider, who was notoriously anti-semitic when he was around, is a considerable improvement over his predecessor, and recommends to move the Austrian embassy to Jerusalem:
Heinz-Christian Strache, leader of the anti-mass migration Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ) has called for Austria to move its Israeli embassy to Jerusalem, echoing U.S. President Donald Trump.He's done a good deed raising these issues. Any European populist who can raise the importance of such issues will be making serious improvements in the continent's relations with Israel.
The FPÖ chief said it was “totally absurd” for the Austrian government to not recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and relocate its embassy from its present location in Tel Aviv. Mr. Strache met with Israeli Deputy Yehuda Glick of the Likud party in Vienna to talk on the subject of “Islam and Islamisation”, Die Presse reports.
