Barbara Rosenkranz scares Austria
VOICE IS SUBMITTED, almost slender. Silver hair, bright eyes, Barbara Rosenkranz travels the countryside and cities of Austria two months ago, wearing a " Trachten " (Traditional dress), pounding his credo of "family policy" re-founded. Candidate in the presidential election this Sunday, the member of the Land of Lower Austria look like this almost anonymous and without neighbor stories, mother smiling, we greet politely from his hedge. For two months, however, all tremble before Austria's candidacy Barbara Rosenkranz, elected the party of the Freedom Party (FPÖ, far right) and an apostle of Pan-German ideology dark memory.
Dubbed the "mother Reich" by the press autrichienne, Frau Rosenkranz règne à 51 ans sur une impressionnante tribu de dix enfants, tous affublés d’un prénom issu de la mythologie germanique : Avec son mari Horst Jakob, elle met un point d’honneur à organiser tous les ans dans son jardin la « fête du solstice d’été », vieille tradition païenne héritée du national-socialisme et célébrant les « familles saines, fortes et nombreuses ». Son époux, un des membres fondateurs du parti néo-nazi , dirige une magazine, "Fakten", which gives pride of the deniers and denounces pell-mell " Turks, Chechens, Asians, Gypsies and Negroes " and " the clichés worn the alleged crimes of the Wehrmacht and the horrors of the camps " .
Horst Rosenkranz and Barbara are among those called in the Austrian "cellar rats Nazis (Kellernazis): born after the war, too late to join the party National Socialist (NSDAP), they maintain the cult of the "Thousand Year Reich", in which Austria would find his modest rank of "Eastern March (Ostmark).
In public, nothing wrong with not sweating in the speech of the elected official who merely criticize immigration "criminal" from the east and rejects the Schengen agreements, citing tighter controls border. Only member to vote against the EU constitution in a referendum Parliament of 2005, she received the official support of " Kronen Zeitung, the most powerful of the country's tabloids, with a million copies a day for a country of 8.3 million inhabitants, and its influential founder, Hans Dichand.
But soon announced his candidacy in early March, Barbara Rosenkranz skidded. Asked about the "final solution" and concentration camps, she said have " information from an Austrian who attended the school between 1964 and 1976 , where Nazi crimes were not program at schools. Then she started a storm of protest, demanding a u the name of freedom of expression an easing of the 1947 Act, the "Verbotgesetz," which prohibits the NSDAP and the glorification of Nazism.
Barbara Rosenkranz not win the presidential election. The outgoing Head of State, the Social Democrat Heinz Fischer, should be re-elected with 70 to 80% of the vote. She hopes to reach 35% of the votes but will probably se contenter d’un score de 10 ou 15%, après une fin de campagne sans éclat. Lundi, sa défaite consommée, elle retournera à ses obligations parlementaires, la satisfaction du devoir accompli. Le leader du FPÖ, Heinz-Christian Strache, resté prudemment en retrait, lorgne sur les élections municipales qui se tiendront en octobre dans la capitale autrichienne : il rêve d’enlever « Vienne la rouge » aux sociaux-démocrates de l’inamovible maire sortant, Michael Häupl, en poste depuis 1994. Et cette fois, l’extrême-droite est convaincue de ses chances de victoire.
