In a few days mostly un-noticed by most, EU presidential power will go from the UK to another member of the 25 states, the lucky recipient is Austria. Austria has quite a history, it used have an empire. & in the last years almost all of its ex-posessions have joined the Europe of 25. It is also a neutral state, its neutrality being a condition of its post war occupation and partition when rather than being held responsible for WW2 it was declared the first victim of Nazism. Despite the fact that Hitler was an austrian and the majority of Concentration camp directors were austrian too. ... read full story / add a comment

indymedias elsewhere seem to have found translations of the word 'indymedia' to their respective languages.
