And here's a 2003 article by Amir Taheri from the National Review, where Haider and Le Pen are called Iraq's "noble friends" on Iraq TV, along with Noam Chomsky:

"Anyone watching Iraqi satellite television these days might easily conclude that the whole world is rising against the United States and in support of president Saddam Hussein.

The channel — owned by Saddam's eldest son, Uday — is broadcasting images of the despot being showered with rose petals. These images fade into portraits of some of Iraq's "noble friends," including the American Noam Chomsky, Britain's Tony Benn, France's Jean-Marie Le Pen, Austria's Jörg Haider, and Russia's Gennadi Zyuganov. These in turn fade into images of antiwar rallies from London to San Francisco, and passing by Berlin."

Ping to posts 12 and 13. The Nazis and the Islamists have a long history together, going back to at least WWII. It appears that hasn't changed.
