Since the end of World War II and its recognition as a sovereign state in 1955. Austria has sought to win its way back as a respected democratic nation in the world. It is true that in heretofore providing a way station for Soviet Jewish refugees. Austria had in part demonstarted some contrition for its antiSemitic outrages of the past. but its announcement that it will close Schoenau Castle to Israelbound Soviet Jews is so grotesque that if not rescinded. it can only cause all decent people to ponder how different is Austria today than in 1938 when Anschluss occurred. Nations normally principled look away when Arab nations encourage and support terrorists. and give them sanctuary. as Libya habitually does. while they are quick to condemn Israels actions taken in selfdefense to stop the terrorists.
