Global Citizens:

What is happening with Joerg [various spellings of first name but not the last] Haider in Austria may be revealing with regard to the Europeon Union and its New World Order agenda.

In my opinion, Haider is advertantly or inadvertantly stepping on EU [and New World Order?] toes and forcing the EU [and New World Order?] to its resolve and position on issues (1 and 2).

The global citizenry may want to look closely at how countries and secret groups respond - particularly France; the Bilderberg Society and, of course, French members of the Bilderberg Society.

--- "``What we want is for them to give up (bringing the Freedom Party into the government) but if they don't, then Austria will be under surveillance as no country has ever been in the European Union,'' he [French Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine] said. (1).

--- "French Prime Minister [and Bilderberg Member - my comment] Lionel Jospin, (see footnote 'a'] also speaking in Stockholm, said: "This political project [Austria's Haider and his People's Party] is a very big concern for the French government."

My criteria for a Bilderberg Club Member include:

(a) Bilderberg names appear on the following Lists as have attending secret meetings from 1995-1999

(b) Bilderbergs have met secretly at one time or another since 1954 - the meetings are usually accompanied by extraordinary amount of security (last year's secret meeting was in Sintra, Portugal; June 3-6, 1999);

(c) Bilderbergs discourage presentation of its agenda to the media - no press conference is held to question or scrutinze what the Bilderberg Club has discussed in terms of global policy and

(d) Bilderbergs misrepresent their constituency and consumers by not exposing on their curriculum vitae that they are members of the Bilderberg Club.

I oppose the purpose and mindset of the Bilderberg Club because of the implications that the Bilderberg precedents includes secrecy and global anarchy as means of severing institutions from the People.

(1) Monday January 31 9:18 AM ET EU Prepares Anti-Austria Measures

PARIS (Reuters) - French Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine said Monday the European Union was preparing measures to be taken against Austria if the far-right Freedom Party joined that country's government.

``Talks are under way (among EU members) to take measures but it is up to the Portuguese presidency of the Union to announce them,'' Vedrine told reporters,

He declined to give details of possible measures but diplomatic sources said they might be announced in Brussels as early as Monday afternoon.

Vedrine said Franco-Austrian relations faced a probable ''difficult phase'' if Joerg Haider's Freedom Party joined a ruling coalition, adding that he found the movement's political platform ``repugnant.''

The French minister said in an earlier radio interview that the EU would watch Austria closely if the far-rightists joined a new cabinet, and that the EU could suspend Austria's EU membership if human rights were violated.

``Europe is no longer in the 1930s. It has mechanisms...which allow a state to be suspended (from the EU) if found guilty of constant, serious human rights violations, but we are still far from any such situation,'' Vedrine told France-Inter radio.

``What we want is for them to give up (bringing the Freedom Party into the government) but if they don't, then Austria will be under surveillance as no country has ever been in the European Union,'' he said.

``Absurd And Mistaken Path''

Haider's party is negotiating a new coalition with the conservative People's Party whose leader, acting Foreign Minister Wolfgang Schuessel, is expected to be chancellor.

Vedrine said the possible participation of the far-rightists in government was ``an absurd and mistaken path...greeted throughout Europe by disapproval and repugnance.''

Vedrine said the problem was mainly one for Austria itself but that its relations with all European countries would be ''deeply affected.''

His tough words followed a harsh statement this weekend by Haider who branded French President Jacques Chirac a failure.

Chirac said Saturday that the EU had to prepare coordinated measures if the Freedom Party entered government.

Haider described Chirac as ``one of those politicians in Europe who has really done everything wrong in recent years that could be done wrong and ultimately lost the elections.''

Haider's remarks, characteristic of the frequently belligerent style that has made him one of Europe's most controversial politicians, were likely to cause considerable embarrassment to Schuessel, who has been trying to persuade Austria's neighbors that he can ``tame'' the right-wing leader.

Haider, 50, is best known for making remarks which appeared to play down the crimes of the Nazis. A fairly forthright apology he made in November has failed to quell a storm of international protests.

Europe fears strain from far-right influence in Austria

PARIS, Jan 26 (AFP) -

European leaders expressed fears Wednesday that Austria's move to enlist far right leader Joerg Haider's party in a new government would strain ties between the EU and Vienna and prevent the 15-nation body speaking with one voice.

Haider's Freedom Party, which came second in October elections, is negotiating with the conservative People's Party on a new government after Chancellor Viktor Klima abandoned attempts to form a minority cabinet.

In a twist of fate, the rise in power of the man who once called Nazi concentration camps "punishment camps", comes as an international conference on the Holocaust opened in Stockholm on Wednesday.

Speaking at a news conference at the meeting, Swedish Prime Minister Goeran Persson said the Freedom Party's political programme was "not in line" with Europe's "values of tolerance".

Quite apart from the party's xenophobic line and Haider's pro-Nazi comments in the past -- which he now puts down to inexperience -- the leader is also virulently against the principles of the European Union.

Austria's EU partners have not been reassured by promises from Haider's likely partner in the coalition, the Europhile foreign minister Wolfgang Schuessel, that it would back Europe and its values.

French Prime Minister Lionel Jospin, also speaking in Stockholm, said: "This political project is a very big concern for the French government."

He added he hoped to express his concerns directly to Klima, who is attending the conference.

Earlier, French foreign ministry spokeswoman Anne Gazeau-Secret said Haider's political methods "consist of exacerbating and using the anxieties of certain people, even if these worries are really only imagined, to create populist and nationalist movements."

Germany's foreign ministry meanwhile said it "can understand the concerns" about Haider's party entering government.

Poland fears an Austrian government including Haider could put obstacles in its bid for entry to the European Union.

"Mr Haider's words are tainted with Nazi sentiments and raise very serious concerns," said a foreign ministry spokesman.

"The situation in Austria is mainly a concern for us in the process of enlargement of the European Union and Austria might adopt a hardline position," he added.

In Italy, a group of 27 deputies from two of the ruling left-wing parties said Haider's presence "would not only create a serious political and diplomatic problem for Italy, but would also be a moral affront and an obvious threat to the European Union."

"A deep rift would separate Austria from Europe," their statement added.

Other European leaders appeared to be waiting to see if Haider's party was confirmed in the coalition.

The strongest reaction worldwide came from Israel, which has already warned that it will recall its ambassador from Vienna if Haider is allowed to join the government.

"I believe for every Jew in the world this is a highly disturbing signal," Prime Minister Ehud Barak said in Stockholm.
