#1 I have visited Amsterdam, and found the people to be a very polite, pleasant group of collaborators.

#2 More of this. What in hell is wrong with a person like Gispen ? He is simply a traitor to his country and enables its eventual fall. Prof. van der Horst was completely correct and trying to approach this from an historical perspective which is usually very accurate. All their society needs to be alerted to action against the invaders. Perhaps the problem is that there is no real society anymore. Society being a group that has common interests, promotes common ideals, and projects norms of behavior. Maybe this crucial fabric has fallen away.

#3 a large majority of the chancellors of the Dutch universities agreed that academic freedom at universities should be limited.

Bit by bit it all goes away.

#6 Btw, rewriting History to be muslim-friendly and muslim-oriented, plus setting specific rules for treating islam, is part and parcel of the Eurabia strategy. It's not a bug, it's a feature.

#7 "However, his university's chancellor, the rector magnificus, Prof. Willem H. Gispen"

More like rectus magnificus

#8 Coward ! Cowards all. The EU is becoming spineless. First the government, next the universities. Will the police be next to cower ?
Will their courts submit to sharia ?
Remember, this is the same Europe which has numerous muzzies camped out in Catholic churchs.
They have gone to hell. There's nothing left to loose except their pathetic EU liberal lives.
Europe's honor died in the 1940s. Survivors include appeasment, dhimmitude, and pointless leftist bloviation. Cowards all.

#9 Again, sorry to rant, but it's a feature, not a bug.

Maybe I'm paranoid, but between the internal rot set by the various shades of post/neo/paleo/marxists, the deliberate and planned (since the 1920's) killing of national identities by the EU, and Eurabia, what's happening is not the results of blind historical forces. Sure, they set the stage, starting with WWI which was the death of Europe, really, though the spiral started with the french revolution, but ideas are carried by people.

And there is an actual political will to change european societies into what the European Enlightened Elites wish them to be.

It's not paranoia when they really are out to get you.
And remember, you've got the same people at home, with basically the same agenda. Only thing that's helping you is a deeper sense of identity (religious and national), and a more healthy political "genetic memory" (but the new left came back from your shores).

#10 #9 anon - the 1st and 2nd Amendments don't hurt either.

Every day I wake up I'm grateful my ancestors got on those boats. And I'm really glad Jefferson's ancestors did, too.

#11 I have to wonder, the next time Europe needs a savior, someone to liberate them from murdurous scum.

Will we give a damn?

#12 We have to, Redneck Jim. Otherwise Europe becomes a reservoir to poison the rest of the world. We may have to choose to rebuild themselves next time though, if only to keep them busy and out of trouble, after the way it turned out last time.

I do apologise, all. I'm not thinking very logically about this right now. My mother just called to let me know that the genteman who'd hidden her during the war just chose to be euthanized, and was buried on Friday. He was 91, in continual pain after a series of debilitating strokes, and decided it was time. He died in the love of his family, including some of his (nine?) children and grandchildren. When I heard, my first thought was that at least he will avoid what is about to come to his little country. His memory is for a blessing, and in Israel he and his wife are listed amongst the Righteous Gentiles.
