#7  Avoiding "bring(ing) back the trains" is exactly why strong action is needed now.

Of course, this is the 21st century. Trains are so early 20th.

Bad, bad, bad, don't want to have to go there.

#3  The asshattery of France and the Appeasement of Spain have emboldened these islamo fasicist clowns. The bombers in Spain were Moroccan and the killer in Holland a Moroccan. Put 2 and 2 together european elites! You have a problem right in your midst and you are not dealing with the issue.

I am angry since my Dutch friend is now at risk due to this assing around by the EU and the short sighted ruling class of europe. This multi national socialism and multiculturalism is endangering our civilization. These stupid classist ruling elites are chattering and doing nothing. Their response is to add more police guards to a the mosques, and to hide the persons under threat. They will do nothing proactive. I am venting I know. However I know we US folk and even liberal Canada would act before we let this get to this point.

My friend in Holand said something that was too scarry. He said he and some friends were talking and he had said. "Since the ruling elites will not act perhaps it is time to bring back the trains for them." He is not a facists he is very liberal and was easy going before this last murder. An average guy is thinking this. He even said the thought scared him to even think it. He says the political class will not listen to the people. This is what happen when the ruling class does not listen to the people and they do not respond to the peoples needs. Europe can go down the same road it did in the 1930's we can't let that happen.

#2  There were some good quotes in the article. First it's getting personal for the politicians:

The mass-circulation De Telegraaf said those threatened included Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Somali refugee who is a prominent member of the VVD liberals, right-wing politician Geert Wilders, Immigration Minister Rita Verdonk and Amsterdam Mayor Job Cohen.

Now they're personally threatening mainstream politicians after having demonstrated their ability to reach out and touch someone. Not a smart move. It could lead to this type of reaction:

"A small group of radical Muslims are forcing us to take measures which could have effects for well-intentioned citizens," Justice Minister Donner and Interior Minister Johan Remkes wrote in a letter to parliament.

I think (hope) the Islamofascists just found out who is going to stand up for themselves in Europe.
