    An organization under this name does exist, but seems to not have a website or other public presence. Of course this does raise legitimate questions. However the author of the meforum text even provided the evidence for the existence of a registered organization on his own website.

    The author of the text on the meforum Soeren Kern even published the registration information on his website

      Quite honestly, “Austrian Institute without a public presence whose main contributor moved back to Turkey” does still smell like a front group to me.

      And ftr, none of that means that I think Islamophobia doesn’t exist or hasn’t increased.
