solidarity message from Erich Hackl


Article 14 of the Universal Declaration of human rights that have been adopted on 10.12.1948 by the General Assembly of the United Nations is: ". Everyone has the right to seek in other countries asylum from persecution and to enjoy" of course only if he or she "because non-political crimes or from acts which is contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations, "on the run. This restriction applies to Dennis Maklele whose misfortune unites us here today, to not, he has never let what guilty of view is rather the intentional omission of the Austrian government, the spirit and provisions of the Declaration justice to.

why we are gathered here today? Because we care about Dennis. Because we do not admit that he is deported to a country from which he fled the age of eleven, to save his life. Because we are ashamed of ourselves as citizens of a state for its government and authorities: their wrongful actions against Dennis comes to us and if we reveal not our horror, we can no longer look to the eyes in the mirror, which means you always remain: Do what say, what, why you said nothing. Therefore, it is, you are, despite adverse weather on the Steyr town square, and I thank you for your perseverance, and for some friendship with Dennis, for the inability to look away, to rule themselves perceive with his eyes. We do not want to let down, the bite, which he puts himself as the most wrongly desperate nothing remains but themselves to do violence in response to the violence, the terrible by a Minister of the Interior, its enforcement agents, party members, government counterparts and starting of course from several right-wing extremist infested, open or latent racist members as officials.

Dennis' Indeed, after Arigona Zogajs escape into the ground, the logical reaction of a person sought to the provisions of the Austrian Asylum legislation and its rigid and arbitrary interpretation by the authorities. It shows what remains a persecuted if he has nothing left: the body's own vulnerable. The silent outcry, the attack is bad to itself that the guilty - they have actually performed Dennis' hand - not to impress them, and if they comply, but without guarantee, it is because of concern for the so-called public opinion, they . Not because they feared for their reputation - that is, an example of a Mr. Platter has long been lost, and he has not missed him more. But because they cling to a chimera, the power is, Power and self-interest and reasons of state and maybe a little bit of sense of mission, the mistaken belief that their presence was indispensable.
I do not know what we can do except see Dennis our attention, our compassion, our solidarity. And the other, the interior minister and his henchmen, our disgust. Perhaps it would be appropriate to throw some sand in the wheels of persecution and deportation. We could mass-report self-disclosure, for "aiding and abetting unauthorized stay", so that we could do again first.

The example of a neighboring country, whose inhabitants the Austrians in many ways are so similar, Yugoslavia has shown how quickly and unexpectedly stable conditions into its opposite, and people just have their lives sure are on the run, except to their possessions and goods robbed and instructed others to help. I do not wish that people here are going through this experience, but I can already imagine that someone will flee elsewhere from a hit by murder and destruction Austrian home and there must fall into a seemingly hopeless situation. After all, it is repeatedly done in the recent history of our country. And this one goes Someone, in which he detects a former minister, helping hand. And this is one: Dennis Maklele

rally thoughts



First Snow.. , a visible sign of the changing seasons. Steyn on the square are, as a visible sign of sympathy, people in a long wet and shivering with cold, and above all:.. Good things

We are by a passerby asked what is the alliance for refugees. Not us organizers, we are all there.

And not only for Dennis Maklele, but in solidarity for all asylum seekers, for all refugees, all men, in the same situation.

For all their despair is not read in the newspapers, of which we know nothing, who live every day with this uncertainty, this fear.








solidarity messages





The spokesman, crowded under the roof of the speakers tent, have read the messages of solidarity. Patiently, our thread of humanity passed from person to person to be spontaneous split screens, grinning faces from dripping hood .

The weather may be unkind, the Menchen are not. A fitting backdrop for our cause.


Now that we are beginning to feel our fingers again, we would like to put together a few of the messages of solidarity, for those who could not come personally, and also for those who want to read it again.

We do not accept that bi-national Married couples are separated. We do not accept that children unaccompanied to be put into detention or picked up by immigration authorities of the school, even though it is against our laws.

We are not matter, added that the Austrian foreign legal gaps and inhumane consequences.
We do care that asylum procedure can take up to ten years.

We want to express our solidarity.


What do we want?
