Mayor: Dutch against asylum seekers

Do the people agree with mass immigration?

Europe is being ruthlessly transformed by wave after wave of non-western immigration. Because European countries are democratic one would expect that the people agree with the transformation because they are not opposing it. Or is it perhaps more complicated and is the absense of political opposition the result of subtle political repression? A Dutch mayor, Eric van Oosterhout (Labour), has implicitly said so. He said that if it was up to Dutch citizens, no asylum seekers would ever be housed in The Netherlands. The mayor of the rustic Dutch town of Aa en Hunze, said this on 3FM, a Dutch radio station (Dutch).

With regards to opening a asylum seekers center against the wishes of the local population the words he used where:

we are defending a minority interest here, and such an interest should not be influenced by the majority. If the state would listen to the citizens not one more asylum seeker would be housed. You may call it authoritarian - but I call it accepting one's responsibility.

Dutch mayors are appointed and they are hand picked from a pool of 30.000 active members of the political parties. This is a narrow caste of satraps, which does not fear political competition for their positions. Hence the electorate, the citizenry has been made powerless. Enabling the satraps to overwhelm the Dutch nation and the other nations of Europe.

The media

Things are moving though. DJ Giel Beelen (Dutch) of the Labour affiliated VARA radio said it was irresponsible to increase funds to pay for asylum seeker in the midst of an economic crisis.

Dumbing down of education

With the large amounts of immigrants from non-western cultures having settled in The Netherlands come all kinds of practical matters.

Lower achievement in the countries of origin

These people come from Central Asia, North Africa and Sub-saharan Africa and the Middle East. The cultures that these people come from are not noted for a strong emphasis on education. Educational attainment is essential to getting ahead in a modern Western society. Do the immigrants from the abovementioned parts of the globe do well in The Netherlands in the field of education?

Double standards discriminate against Dutch students

The answer has been that overwhelmingly they do not do well at school. Very large numbers of non-western youth drop out of school and are added to the perenially unemployed and often criminal class of society. In order to fix the drop out rate schools are instructed by the national exams commission (CEVO) to allow non-Dutch students to make more spelling mistakes in exams than Dutch students. This is a glaring double standard. Imagine the wave of leftist and liberal hatred if it was discovered it is the other way around.

Standards are being dropped

A laywer, Mr. Roel Schreuders, told the press about the double standards that schools have to employ. He insisted that non-western students may make two to three times as many mistakes as Dutch students.

Real life example

I am not surprised. I know of non-western students who finished polytechnic despite a serious lack of knowledge of the Dutch language. They are not capable of writing business letters, but they are supposed to have written a thesis.

However, the national exams commission (CEVO) insists that the double standards only applies for a small group of students.

Further thoughts on the dismissal of Minister Ella Vogelaar

Last week I blogged on the dismissal of Minister Ella Vogelaar of Neighbourhoods and Assimilation.

A further thought on this topic occurred to me. In my above quoted piece I gave as a reason for the dismissal that the Minister was too weak.

But there is more. Vogelaar was also not well-aligned with the Labour party's position on Assimilation. She represents the old line on the position of migrants in which it is mostly ethnic Dutch who are responsible for creating favourable condition for success of non-westerners in The Netherlands.

The new line of Labour that it is the non-westerners who must create the conditions for their succesfully becoming a part of Dutch society. By firing Minister Ella Vogelaar the Labour Party has now communicated the new line to the whole party.

Either you agree with the new policy or you are out.

A strengthening Anti-American coalition

The response to the terror attack on New York in 2001 was the US-led invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Both countries were not able to resist the US military superiority and succumbed to occupation.

Both however are massive liabilities to the US, eating away resources.

The ruling elites of Non-Western nations looked on in initial alarm at the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Their fear was for their own hides in case the US might try something similar with their own nations, removing the elites from power and bringing Iraq-style disorder to their nations.

Already before the war in the Middle East there was concern in China and Russia about US-hegemonism. In order to strengthen themselves these nations, which are growing in economic and societal power and centeredness started to improve their co-operation.

Initially the co-operation took the form of weapons sales by the cash-starved Russians to the Chinese, plus the transfer of military technology to the Chinese military. Later the co-operation was solidified in the form of the Shanghai Co-operation Organisation (SCO), a formal alliance with a permanent secretariat and staff, based in the capital of China. Kazakhastan, Kyrgystan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan also became members of the alliance.

Important goals of the alliance is furthering trade between the member states and the fight against terrorism against the member states. China is a dynamic economic and monetary powerhouse and an increasingly strong competitor of Western Nations. Russia is also becoming economically stronger, while it also has technological and military production strength. It furthermore has vast oil reserves, which are increasingly becoming scarce, hence the rising price of oil. The other nations in the alliance are also strong in oil and commodities, underwriting the economic expansion of the more prosperous members of SCO.

Recently Iran, India, Mongolia and Pakistan became members of SCO. This means that the alliance now borders on US occupied Afghanistan and Iraq. Four members of SCO have nuclear weapons (Russia, China, Pakistan and India). The alliance gives Iran enormous strategic depth.

The US is under pressure of the Taliban in Afghanistan. And under pressure of Sunni nationalist and Islamic groups of fighters. These groups are fighting in a highly dispersed pattern, in order to nullify the US lead in firepower.

The US forces fighting the Sunnis in and around Bagdad, the core of the Sunni demographic in Iraq are depending on a long supply line to the port city of Basra on the Persian Gulf. Astride the supply line lie the Shia villages, towns and cities. The Shias thus control US logistics. Weapons, food, spare parts, re-inforcements, fuel, medical evacuation can be turned of if the Shia Mullahs. The Shia Mullahs have been put in power by the US organised elections. And by the dismantling of the old Iraqi Army and the nationalist Baath party, which left religious and tribal groupings as the only forms of social and political organisation in Iraq.

Iran is also able to cut off oil supplies to the rest of the world due to their ability to interdict shipping when it travels through the Hormus Straits, the bottleneck for transporting Iraqi, Kuwaiti, Iranian and most of Saudi Arabia's and Gulf State oil deliveries. Just threatening the flow of oil to Asia and the West would send the oil price sky high, slowing down investment in the US economy and hurting the US labour market, which is already under pressure from out of control Mexican immigration.

The US has a technological edge over Iran, militarily. It will be able to destroy Iranian air defense easily and defeat the Iranian Army in the field. However it will run in far greater trouble than it is currently in when it tries to occupy Iran's population centres and faces a new urban guerrilla from its 68 million population.

And then the Iranians will be able to pull the plug on the US Army in Iraq's logistics lifeline and deny the world economy of its oil in a market that has no swing capacity, as in 1973.

The threats that the US have uttered against Iran on Israel's behalf are essentially empty.

Polish workers obliterate Dutch Muslims

A friend of mine is a Hungarian who fled Communism in the 80ies. He has a little agency hiring Eastern Europeans for construction work in the Netherlands. Two years ago we saw it coming a big flood of willing Polish, Czech and Hungarian workers coming to The Netherlands after their entry in the EU. They are wiping out the unskilled workers in industry, construction and farming.

Dutch newspaper "Trouw" runs an article on Polish workers running Turks, Morroccans and Blacks out of work. Not only are the Eastern Europeans cheaper, but they work hard and there is no violence. Amongst second and third generation Turks, Morroccans and Blacks violence in the workplace is endemic.

The immigrant are now on the dole. 1.800 agricultural and construction job agencies have gone broke in The Hague alone, which is close to the areas were labour intensive agriculture is strong with the characteristic glass house flower and vegetable businesses.

The idea that these immigrants were a boon to the Dutch economy ever is again exposed a the poppycock that it is. Although the cheap African and Middle Eastern workers helped out the farmers since the period of full employment in the sixties, when Dutch workers moved on to better jobs rather than work in agriculture 90 percent of the earnings are pocketed by the workers. The rest is the profit for the employer. But once these low skilled third worders are unemployed they go on the dole, which is financed by the rest of the working population. So the benefits are accrued by the employers, the immigrants, while the long term costs are born by the Dutch population.

Rescued by the Left?

Elites versus the governed

In the past 40 years the political, media and business establishments in most Western nations have collaborated amongst themselves to undermine traditional Western culture. Initially right-wing business interest imported foreign labour to bring down wages. Later the Left used accusations of "racism" as a club in order to keep whites from defending their material and cultural interests. In the 1990s Universities and the Media developed and enforced speech codes to mold perceptions of reality. To forestall the possibility that people would be able to put together a picture of the ethnic competition that is taking place between old populations and the newly arrived.

Elite becomes more powerfull

The real winners in this set-up are the elites, not the newly arrived, the immigrants. The immigrants are constantly threatened in turn by more recent immigrants. This threatens their access to services and undermines their wages just as is the case with the original inhabitants of Western Nations.

Political cartel plus a media cartel

It is impossible to do something about this, when the working of democracy is undermined by a cartel of political parties which does not allow real opposition against Multiculturalism and mass immigration. And a media cartel that does not publish dissent.

Outflanking the cartel

Recently the Left in the establishment political parties in several Western Nations is losing its control of the political arena. In The Netherlands, Denmark, Flanders, France, Austria and Australia political parties are springing up that have the ability to go into the mainstream. Internet is giving people an opportunity to voice real opposition to Multiculturalism and to outflank Left wing media bias. With the attack by political Islam on New York, the bombings of Bali, Spain, the UK disadvantages of Multiculturalism have become looming. So that doubts about the viability of Multicultural societies can not be denied anymore by the Media and Political elites. This has resulted in real debate between the opponents and proponents of Multiculturalism and the rise of parties that really oppose Multiculturalism in several countries. These Antimulticultural forces usually focus on the threat that Islam poses to the West. By its inate hostility to Western values such as liberalism, the western work ethic, independence and freedom for women and non-islamic groups.

Fight them overhere, not overthere

People such as Pia Kjersgard, Pim Fortuyn, Ali Hirsi Ayaan, Theo van Gogh strongly oppose Islam in the West, while the leaders of the United States and the UK seek to fight political Islam and state sponsored Islamic terrorism in the heart of the Middle East.

More power to the executive branch

In this climate of real hot military and cold political warfare against the excesses of political Islam Western politicians seek to counter the threats of Islamic violence. They do this by giving state agencies, such as the military, the secret services, the police and the judiciary increased powers in the fight against terrorism.

The public pays the price

Unfortunately the powers that the state begets are gained at the expense of the citizenry. The citizenry is now exposed not only to the rising crime of a Multicultural society and omnipresent terrorism. But also to the increased power of the various state agencies that are mobilising to crush terrorism. The US have suspended Habeas Corpus, the traditional right of individuals not to be arrested and detained without an indictment for a specific crime.

This means e.g. that Middle Easterners arrested in Afghanistan during the American assault on that country are held without an indictment or a trial for THREE years already at a US prison in Guantanamo Bay under the US "Patriot" act.

This means e.g. that Tony Blair, the Labour Prime Minister of Britain, has tried to pass legislation that would give state agencies wide ranging powers in the fight against terrorism. Also suspending Habeas Corpus in the UK, the very country that gave these rights such fame in the past. Fortunately his proposals have been shot down in flames by the British parliament.

And in The Netherlands politicians, such as Maxime Verhagen and Pieter Hein Donner, are discussing whether terorist PLANS and INTENTIONS should be made punishable. This after a court declared Samir Azzouz innocent when it turned out that this self-declared Jihadi was too incompetent in his preparations to be credible as a threat to the security of the Dutch public.

And Ali Hirsi Ayaan is regularly proposing new legislation that would give state agencies powers in order to improve the rights of children and women in the Muslim community against violence and abuse by Muslim men, usually family members.

The state versus the people

All four of these initiatives counter the growing power of Islam and Islamic communities internationally. All four initiatives counter Islam's power to impose its will on Islam's outsiders and insiders. Yet all these initiatives have one thing in common. They fundamentally increase the power of the state and at the expense of the rights of the public. In this they are typical of the approach taken by the Left under Socialism, Communism and Multiculturalism. These initiatives are not specifically aimed at Muslims and they undermine the freedom and rights of ALL citizens of Western Societies. Something Liberals and Conservatives alike should be opposed to if they take their own worldview seriously.

Meeting the challenge of Islam

We, Liberals and Conservatives, should be concerned that a foreign religion and worldview is trying to scare us and submit us to its will. The challenge is to find an approach that does not fight for Freedom at the expense of Freedom. The problems with Al-Queda are much worsened by Multiculturalism. Without open borders and Multiculturalism the September 11 conspirators would not have been able to enter and stay in the USA so easily. Without the presence of large and growing Islamic communities in the West plus the blinding of public opinion by Multiculturalism and Political Correctness Islam would not be such a threat, at all.

The Truth will set you Free

If we free ourselves of the shackles on our thought and look objectively at the strengths and weaknesses of the West and the strengths and weaknesses of Islam, we can see that the balances are in favour of the West. Islam has to export its population to do the dirty work of the unbelievers. Whereas Freedom is one of the most fundamental strengths of the West. Through Freedom Westerners are able to freely discuss the direction their societies need to take in peace and war and to vote for the parties that take a credible approach as a process of trial and error get underway.

The example of Israel

Look at Israel. A few million of Jews, mainly Westerners, are standing up to the multitudes of Islam for decades and they, the Jews, thrive. Time in time again Muslim armies are defeated. The Jews only fail to win where they have become occupation forces of hostile Islamic populations. As in the population of the territories occupied in 1967 or the population of large parts of Lebanon after 1982. The Muslims are able to maintain themselves and even win some space through riots, suicide bombings, assorted terrorism and of course demographics. This works only as long a the Jews fight as nice boys, keeping to the rules of Western warfare and not resorting to ethnic cleansing or genocide.

Ethnic cleansing

However, if the Muslims really corner the Israelis, these will have no other option than to take off their boxing gloves and to hit the Muslims with mailed fists ("Egrofei Shofim"). This is called "Transfer" in the political debate in Israel.

Europe must follow

And the same goes for the European Christians worldwide. If the Muslims really anger us and put us in a difficult position we will have to cease to be such gentlemen and to wipe these unruly populations from our lands. Not by killing them but by a firm removal from our societies. And then it will be obvious who needs who. Because afterwards our societies will be much better off. Yes, our marginal industries will be lacking cheap labour and they will relocate elsewhere. But on the other hand the white underclass will receive much better wages so it will benefit far more people than that it will hurt. And end a chasm that is opening up in Western societies.

Keeping the rights of the people intact

And the best of it is that it can be done without hurting the core populations, without taking our political rights away, without establishing a security dictatorship or oligarchy.

Radical? Sure. But think about it. It makes sense. Transfer.
