Dutch Muslim Politician Drops His Mask |
2005-04-12 |
Hat tip: LGF Cid Martel of the Dutch Disease blog has kindly sent along this revealing translation of a Dutch story from Trouw. Cid explains: "A small Dutch Christian party called ChristenUnie (ChristianUnion) is trying to figure out how to deal with Muslims. Some feel Muslims are a threat, others think that Christians need to be open to people from other cultures. There was a debate recently between the party leader and the director of Milli Gorus. It started out fine but suddenly Haci Karacear, the director, dropped his mask." Haci Karacaer was rather provocative. He hammered home that Europe has its roots in Islam. "Europe does not have Judeo-Christian roots. We gave them to you!" When they talked about religious education things got even more heated. "André, try to keep up with the facts. Demographics tell you that a school board can't continue to proselytize. I'll go as far as to say that the Christian identity of these schools doesn't mean a damn thing." I don't expect any "awake" state anytime soon. More like a hangover, after years of kool-aid drinking, not going away soon. It may take quite a few season changes for EUros to find their balls and take a stand. |
