Austria:Half of Parliament Refuses to Observe Minute of Silence for Leonie

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


As previously reported, Austria is dealing with the shock of a murder case in which a 13-year-old girl named Leonie was drugged, gang-raped, and murdered in Vienna. Three Afghan asylum-seekers are in custody and a 4th is being sought.

This week, Herbert Kickl, a member of Parliament from the Austrian Freedom Party, asked his colleagues to stand and observe a minute of silence for the girl. Only about half of the chamber stood.

That request came at the end of an electrifying speech in which he excoriated his colleagues and government officials like Interior Minister Karl Nehammer, who was present in the chamber just a few feet away. 

The below article from Unzensuriert is translated by Fousesquawk. It contains a video of the speech by Kickl and shows how half of the chamber refused to stand in silence. Due to the length of the speech, it is as yet, not translated. For those readers who know German, it is well worth spending 20 minutes to view it. If not, you can still watch the last minute of silence as requested by Kickl. After that was finished, he closed his speech with these words: “A picture says more than a thousand words.”

Commemoration for the murdered Leonie: Only blue and a few red deputies stand

The “urgent request” to Austrian People’s Party Interior Minister Karl Nehammer yesterday, Thursday, was used by the Freedom Party for a minute’s commemoration (minute of silence) for Leonie, allegedly murdered by rejected Afghan asylum seekers.

Speaking time used for a minute commemoration

Austrian Freedom Party chief and club chairman, Herbert Kickl, used his speaking time in Parliament to show his sympathy to the 13-year-old girl, who was made compliant for sex with drugs, repeatedly raped and killed, as well as her (next of kin). He asked all the deputies in Parliament to join with the Freedom Party members for a minute of commemoration.  However, only the blue faction and a few Social Democrat deputies stood (in contemplation), the others remained seated, sometimes looking furtively into space. 

Sobotka refused commemoration of Leonie

As reported, one day previous, on Wednesday, National Council President Wolfgang Sobotka (Austrian People’s Party) refused a commemoration minute for Leonie in Parliament. He wanted no politicization of “the single, very very tragic incident,” he said an argument for his refusal. Kickl then stated that that was just a flimsy excuse, after all, commemoration minutes had been held for the victims of a massacre in a homosexual club in Orlando, USA, or for victims in the Mediterranean as a result of the mass migration from North Africa. He accused the Austrian People’s Party of making an unpleasant topic taboo.
