Why Europe’s new nationalists love Israel | PJ Media

„If ponies rode men and grass ate cows,“ goes the text of „The World Turned Upside Down,“ the tune piped by the Continental Army band at Cornwallis‘ surrender of Yorktown. Europeans might consider adopting it as their anthem to replace the present European Community hymn, the overused Ode to Joy. The resurgent nationalists who made the Alternative fuer Deutschland into Germany’s third-largest party and the Austrian Freedom Party into that country’s second-largest (and a likely member of a new governing coalition) have an extreme-right reputation, but they are now the most pro-Israel parties in Europe. The world has indeed turned upside-down, and we might as well sing about it.
