V-E Day tributes from Dutch bloggers
2005-05-06
Dutch blogger Arjan Dasselaar of "Zacht Ei" posts some beautiful pictures in salute to V-E day. And Pieter Dorsman of PeakTalk has the schedule for Bush's visit to Holland and an oustanding remembrance of Pim Fortuyn, three years after he was assassinated.

#2  Em, great links, especially the first. I ad forgotten that Lileks quote that he uses:

''They can talk for hours about how wrong it was to kill babies, busboys, businessmen, receptionists, janitors, fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers - and then they lean towards you, eyes wide, and they say the fatal word: But.''

''To you from failing hands we throw the torch--Be yours to hold it high.'' -- Beautiful quote.
