ZARA CLEAN-POLITICS PETITION

I can say that it is extremely hard to schock me, but the political language in Austria was always quite schocking. Just in the moment you think that it can't get worse, you see the Freedom Party (FPOE) ads: Kein EU Beitritt der Tuerkei, Wien darf nicht Istanbul werden - meaning Vienna must not become Istanbul(varying a former FPOE slogan of Haider: "Wien darf nicht Chicago werden"), Deutsch statt "nix verstehn" (German instead of "don't understand"), Arbeit statt Zuwanderung (jobs instead of immigration), and other Islamophobia coloured ads and radio spots (Daham staat Islam, Sozialstaat staat Zuwanderung, Sichere Pensionen staat Asyl-Millionen, etc. - you can get the whole list and fill yourself with disgust on the website of H.C.Strache: http://www.hcstrache.at/index.php?style=7&PHPSESSID=b89006fb0e59c22afe58d8b0d8ba51db Now... ZARA (www.zara.or.at) was founded in 1999 and is fully committed to anti-racism work. Please position yourself and sign the Clean-politics-petition (KEINE STIMME FUER RASISMUS!): www.zara.or.at/cleanpolitics Thanks a lot! Irina P.S. Right partners for Jacek as well.
