Thanks to heavy immigration over the past four decades, at least a half a million Turks now live in Austria, with many settling in Vienna. When you think of the cradles of Judeo-Christian, Western civilization, Vienna is certainly at the top of the list. But some residents say this city is changing--and becoming increasingly influenced by Islam. "They are here to dominate," said Vienna-based counter-jihad acticist Harald Fiegel. "And of course, knowing a little bit about Islam, you can read it there. They are are here to dominate all the world, not just Europe." Fiegel monitors Islamic growth in Austria.
