#6   Phffffftt!

This unrest will go on for a few more days, maybe a week, then everybody will forget all about it.

The Dutch are not a fighting people.

#4  My prediction: this will change nothing in the Moslem behaviour, apart from claiming that *they* are the victims.

They will continue to isolate themselves from the free institutions of the West, they will expand their areas of illegality (i.e. implementing sharia), they will continue to nurture in their midst Islamofascist terrorists -- and Europe is unable to kick out those who refuse local, Western values and institutions.

The end of the road will be a terrorist war in Europe, much more deadly than what Israel has experienced. Which would delight Al-Qaeda. Give it 5-10 years, tops.

#3  "One of the chief pleasures of the place is its lively contrast between pragmatic liberalism and the buttoned-up just-so primness of a culture founded on Calvinist principles. In Dutch society, ostentation is anathema and fuss of any kind is regarded as undignified."

I think they are getting undignified. I think we will see alot more of this too.

#2  Crunch point. Are Dutch Muslims going to allow relations between them and the wider Dutch population be dictated by their own violent minority? Or are they going to speak up and denounce them? Have they protested against the murder? Are they going to behave like responsible individuals, or are they going to go tribal and claim they resent any labelling of themselves as a homogenous group harbouring terrorists, and in doing so, whilst not publicly helping national authorities weed out the whackjobs, make that very point?

If those of you who can be part of the solution, aren't, then you are all going to be part of the problem. That may suck, but it's true.
