In Belgium police arrested 11 suspects of terrorism this morning in a raid in various towns in the country.
"Belgian police took 11 men into custody Thursday following a request by Moroccan authorities, amid an investigation into a suspected terrorist group in Belgium, federal prosecutors said.
The 11 were picked up during 12 raids, involving around 100 officers, in Brussels, Tongres, in northeast Belgium, central Nivelle and Arlon in the southeast, spokeswoman Lieve Pellens said.
The raids follow declarations made to police early this year by Abdelkader Belliraj, a Belgian and Moroccan national on trial in Morocco on suspicion of having led an Al Qaeda-linked group."

Muslims attack Church in Gouda
Muslim youth attack Church
Four Moroccan teenagers attacked a Church in the town of Gouda in The Netherlands. The attack took place on Saturday 22 November during the afternoon. The target is situated in the Gouda neighbourhood of Bloemendaal.
The name of the church is the Reformed Christian Church "Vaste Burcht". This is Dutch for "Well-built Stronghold". The Church lived up to its name as only the door of the church was damaged by the fire.
Three of the four arrested teenagers spend a whole night in a police prison. A fourth was released.
In Parliament
The matter was mentioned in Dutch Parliament by Freedom Party (PVV) MPs Geert Wilders and Sietse Fritsma. Among other things they asked for criminals with Dutch and Moroccan (Dutch) nationality to be banned from The Netherlands.
Reaction of the Gouda authorities
Police and fire brigade reacted quickly to the attack. The mayor of Gouda, Mr. Wim Cornelis stated to "take the case seriously".
Earlier disturbances in Gouda in september 2008
Another quarter of the town of Gouda called Oosterwei was in the news in September. The neighbourhood had been terrorized by Moroccans (Dutch) and other ethnics for a years already, but now it finally hit the news due to busdrivers refusing to drive their route trough Oosterwei after a busdriver had been mugged.
Geert Wilders: protect Dutch citizens
In an effective performance Freedom Party leader Geert Wilders asked in parliament why the Dutch Royal Army was in Afghanistan protecting Afghan villagers from the Taliban if the Dutch in many towns and cities were not safe from Moroccan street terrorists.
Authorities try to diminish the issue
The mayor of Gouda, Minister of Justice Hirsch Ballin (Dutch), Minister of the Interior Guusje ter Horst and the police chief of the police district that Gouda resorts under Mr. Jan Stikvoort (Dutch) tried to put the anarchy in Gouda under wraps. They stated that there had been an "incident".
In a reaction Geert Wilders subtly demanded that the police chief of Gouda had to be demoted to a parking supervisor in a rural part of The Netherlands.
The authorities are exposed as failures
Shortly thereafter a TV presenter was mugged in Gouda, a woman was hit by a dart arrow and a police trainee was stabbed. All by Moroccans. The icing on the cake was the looting of a supermarket by a group of Moroccans, with the police taking more than an hour to arrive.
The press finally does its work
A mayor newspaper, De Telegraaf, put reports of this serie of incidents on their front page, during september and october. This established the reality of the anarchy. And this anarchy in Gouda and many other places is not incidental but structural. It had become clear that the authorities did not have things in hand in the town of Gouda.
The authorities come around and recognize there is a problem
The authorities reacted by summing up programs to deal with Moroccan street terror "harshly". But the volume of violent crime and the number of criminals is so large that the capacity is lacking to punish violent criminals significantly. Also when the treatment that politicians and police managers want to prescribe to criminals one realises that they do not intend to punish but to "treat" or "help" the criminals.
Labour MP says: "Geert Wilders is right!"
One Labour Party MP however insisted that Moroccans had to be "humiliated in front of their peers" (Dutch).
Will it have a positive effect?
Even if capacity was created to punish Moroccan and other ethnic criminals. By imprisoning them for a considarable time. Even if this would happen it is doubtful that this would have much effect. The situation has gotten too far out of hand. Prisons are full of Moroccans and other minorities anyway. They have become crime schools, rather than correctional facilities.
Too little, too late
The rapid reaction of the Gouda Mayor and Police to the Gouda Church is a result to the effect of the Dutch press pointing out reality of Dutch Multi-Cultural society and the effective opposition work of Geert Wilders and his Freedom Party.
But it will not have a significant effect. The situation is out of government control . And therefore out of control of Parliamentary politics.

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.

Ethnic Dutch and young Muslims on a collission course
Two Dutch institutes, the Verwey-Jonker and Forum institutes published a report on young Muslims in The Netherlands last week. It noted that a group of Dutch Muslims are becoming more pious and try to make more room for their religious practices. Practices mentioned are: "the right to pray, not shaking hands, wearing a headscarve, time off on Muslim holidays".
The report also notes that the rest of Dutch society is less willing to accomodate Muslim practices.
Obviously Muslim society and the majority are coming in conflict with each other.
The report optimistically looks at ways in which Muslims can make e.g. their employers accept their practices.

Dutch Freedom Party: Islam no religion
By the way of Martin Bosma, MP, the Freedom Party (PVV) stated in Dutch Parliament (Dutch) that "Islam is not a religion".
The leader of the Freedom Party, Geert Wilders stated a year ago that: "Islam is not so much a religion, but rather a political ideology".

Liberalism kills
Fascinating story coming to us from the Middle East (HT Mr. Lawrence Auster): a dippy Italian bint named Pippa Bacca takes it upon herself to hitchhike to Israel from Italy through Turkey, Syria, Lebanon and the territory of the Palestinian Authority dressed in a bridal dress. To prove that peace between the West and Islam is possible by Westerners giving up steretypes of Muslims as rapists and becoming more tolerant.
Mrs. tragically is raped and murdered in the first Muslim country she visits: Turkey.
What does that prove?

Minister of Neighbourhoods and Assimilation is forced to step down
Ella Vogelaar too weak
Yesterday evening Dutch Minister Ella Vogelaar (Labour) of Assimilation and Neighbourhoods was forced to step down. The head of the Labour Party publicly concluded that Minister Vogelaar was too weak and had no authority.
Crime register
The immediate cause of the Minister's downfall was her giving in to politicians from the Dutch Antilles to have the ethnicity of Antillians logged in a special crime register, for better exchange of information on highly criminal Antillian youth. Dutch Parliament had demanded the register for two years.
Former Communist Ella Vogelaar had been a weak Minister since she had accepted her Ministerhood of the newly created policy taskforce. The idea of the policy taskforce had been to address the trouble attending non-western immigrants in The Netherlands by improving the neighbourhoods that contain large numbers of non-westerners.
A string of mistakes
The Minister's many mistakes were summed up by Dutch columnist Syp Winia: "stating that Burqas are cool, Islam enriches The Netherlands, stating everything will sort itself out in time, providing free assimilation courses to immigrants and blaming ethnic Dutch for the troubles of non-western immigrants".
The political class becomes more aligned with the nation
The downfall of the Minister shows that the presence of large numbers of non-western immigrants has gone from a liability for the nation and a boon to the political class to a liability to both the nation and the political class.
That is an improvement.
The king is dead, long live the king
Amsterdam Labour Party (PvdA) stalwart and laywer Eberhard van der Laan of the firm of Kennedy en van der Laan attorneys will succeed Mrs. Vogelaar as Minister of the taskforce for Assimilation and Neighbourhoods.

Brutal rape in centre of Amsterdam
Amsterdam newspaper "Het Parool" reports that a 26 years old woman was raped (Dutch) in the center of Amsterdam, the upscale canal area (grachtengordel).
This happened last tuesday at around 2:30. Location: Herengracht. The man asked for a cigarette and grabbed the woman. The man took her handbag and then attempted to rape her, but he did not succeed. He dragged her to the Leidsestraat, a busy area although less so at that time. He then demanded that she withdrew money for him from the ATMs at Ledseplein.
The police reports that the woman did not manage to grab the attention of the many passersby in that street. When they arrived the woman managed to break lose from clutches of the rapist and ask for help from a group of tourists. The rapist managed to run.
The police describes the man as of probable mediterranean extraction. The discription given generally fits North Africans especially Moroccans.

Blasphemy goes PC
The law against Blasphemy
The Dutch cabinet will today discuss a proposal to remove article 147, the law against blasphemy, from the Dutch penal code. Article 137 of the penal code which forbids insulting groups on the basis of race, religion, sexual disposition or handicap will be amended too and the reference to religion will be taken out.
This is reported (Dutch) by the Reformatorisch Dagblad, a orthodox Calvinist Christian newspaper connected to the Christian Union (CU) Party. The CU is a junior partner in the Dutch Cabinet of Christian Democrats, Christian Union and Labour (PvdA).
The Constitution and the law against Discrimination
Appearently article 1 of the Dutch Constitution will remain unchanged. Article 1 states:
The Minister of Justice
The Reformatorisch Dagblad credits the proposal with Hirsh Ballin, a Cabinet member for Justice. Hirsch Ballin is a member of the Christian Democrats (CDA). He infamously defended the intimidating arrest of Dutch Cartoonist Gregorius Nekschot.
Freedom of Speech against Discrimination
2008 was a year of political friction and unrest between those who favour the principle of Freedom of Speech and those who favour religion. Dutch Cartoonists and webmasters attacked Islam in the same way as Christianity was attacked in the late 1960ies. They found that the government started to use the law against Blasphemy against them. Even though this law had been dormant since the case against writer Gerard van 't Reve had been dismissed by a Dutch court in 1968.
There seemed to grow a coalition between Christians and Islam in The Netherlands. The secular parties including the Leftist parties opposed this revival of the law against Blasphemy. They were prodded on by their voting base, which demanded Freedom of Speech and the right to criticize Religion especially Islam. The Labour Party (PvdA) and Socialist Party vied for the honour of defeating the law of Blasphemy. A proposal by Justice Minister Hirsch Ballin to extend the law against Blasphemy to insults to all worldviews was leaked by someone in the department of Justice and shot down in parliament.
What will happen?
There is a broad majority in parliament to remove the law against Blasphemy so the vote today seems a race with a predictable end.
Discrimination and protected classes
Even so the law against "discrimination" remains both in the Constitution and in the penal code. And thus immigrants remain a protected class under the law. The secularist have correctly pointed out that the law against Blasphemy makes the religious a protected class under the law. By giving the followers of religions superior rights to the rights of secular citizens. But it remains so that the law against Discrimination favours classes of people defined by race, gender and sexual orientation.
To paraphrase the word of Jesus: the secularists see the speck in the eye of the Christians and the Muslims, but fail to behold the plank in their own eye. (Matthew 7 : 1-6).

Jordan works on warrant for the arrest of Geert Wilders
Geert Wilders, the leader of the Dutch Freedom Party is coming under fire from abroad. Judge Hassan Al Abdallat of the court in Amman, Jordan has ruled that a complaint by a group called "Messenger of Allah Unites Us" will be considered by the court. As a result of this complaint Jordan will issue an international order to arrest the Dutch politician. Geert Wilders has said that he does expect the Jordan Dutch to swiftly issue such an arrest warrent. As a result he will not be able to travel outside the Netherlands. Within the Netherlands Wilders will be protected by his parlementarian immunity.
Wilders is receiving support from the Office of the National Co-ordinator of Anti-Terrorism, the NCTb and Minister Maxime Verhagen (CDA) of Foreign Affairs.

Cartoonist Gregorius Nekschot becomes a stumbling block
Dutch Cartoonist Gregorius Nekschot, who was arrested last week was released after spending 30 hours in a cell.
This is a very long time to spend in jail and there seems no proper ground for such a long arrest. There is a strong impression that the arrest, made by 10 policemen was primerily intended to intimidate.
This has led to a very strongly adverse reaction by the Dutch public, who overwhelmingly expressed support for him. He has become an icon of the Freedom of Speech, a living version of Pim Fortuyn and Theo van Gogh.
Minister of Justice Hirsh Ballin, a Chrisitian Democrat, has gotten a lot of flak in Parliament for the decision to invade Mr. Nekschot's (Dutch) home, search his house and to arrest and to detain him.
Minister Hirsh Ballin admitted that 30 hours was too long and promissed to question the Public prosection ("Openbaar Ministerie" or "OM"). Whatever that means.
It is however obvious that the Justice Minister and the Public prosecutor lost a lot of face in this affair.

Dutch State prosecutes cartoonist
Dutch Cartoonist Gregorius Nekschot makes cartoons that ridicule Islam and political correctness.
Gregorius Nekschot is a pseudonym.
Three years ago civil servant Enver Varisli of the Mercator (in Amsterdam-West) Discrimination Desk (MDI) reported six of Nekschot's cartoons as going against the anti-discrimination laws.
Yesterday his house was invaded by ten police men. They arrested Gregorius Nekschot, confiscated his computer, phone, back-up drive and a usb-stick. Mr. Nekschot was then taken to a high-security prison (Bijlmer bajes) and was released today.
Ominiously the police told Nekschot that his cartoon's were worse than Denmark's and that he would be in trouble for ridiculing Islam and its prophet.
Neksschot replied: "you are loading a very heavy responsibility on your shoulders".
In a interview with Amsterdam newspaper "Parool" Mr. Nekschot added:

that he never tried to flee from the law. My web site contains a direct link to the MDI (anti-discrimination desk). But I have always been very carefull with my identity. I do not use that pseudonym for nothing. What I create is no trifling matter and I know what may be its consequences. Which is why I am very afraid of a conviction. Suppose I go to jail. As the maker of those cartoons I have to fear for my life.

Imam tells Dutch Children they are dogs
Dutch primary school "De Horizon" organized a field trip to a nearby mosque. In order for the pupils to get to know other communities of Multicultural society better.
This fits with Liberal propaganda that : "all cultures are equal and compatible. Intra-community trouble can be cured through people getting to know more about other communities and cultures".
On a question of one of the visiting Dutch schoolkids the Imam (Dutch) of the "El Mouchidine" Mosque stated "that all unbelievers are dogs".
The more many Dutch get to know other communities, the less they appreciate them.

Due to strong pressure from Iran, Mr. Jami decided not to release the film. He stated that: "I have no army behind me (Dutch). The Dutch state cannot protect me"
Minister of Justice Hirsch Ballin had also pressured Mr. Jami not to release the highly provocative animation movie.

Geert Wilders released his movie Fitna
Yesterday Geert Wilders released Fitna. The film is critical of Islam. The medium that showed Fitna was LiveLeak.
The Dutch public reacted calmly. The Muslim immigrants behaved too.
It appears that the Dutch government and elites shot their collective bolt by trying to surpress the release of the movie.

Fitna, fitna and fitna
There is a lot of news on Wilders' to be released movie "Fitna". Even if I had the time I could not cover it.
Wilders (PVV) has now announced that Fitna will be released before April the first.
Kleinverzet has good coverage of Fitna. I recommend that you take a look.

Another obstacle for Wilders
After all Dutch broadcasters stated they would not broadcast Wilders' movie, there was an avenue left. Political news centre "Nieuwspoort" in the Dutch capital The Hague announced their willingness to air the film. Under the condition that Wilders (Dutch) would be responsible for security.
Wilders today stated he was neither willing nor able to pay for this security. The bill would amount to 300.000 or 400.000 Euros.
There are rumours that Fitna today got a preview on the Rotterdam Film Festival though.
Large number of cousin marriages in The Netherlands
The Dutch Institute for national Health and the Environment (RIVM) published a new study (Dutch) on cousin marriages. Although cousin marriages have dissapeared in The Netherlands after the Second World War the practice has come back again. The practice occurs frequently amongst the new communities of Muslims in The Netherlands. As a result of this practice there has been an increase in death at births and genetic defects. This trend is now flattening.
Steve Sailer of the Human Diversity Institute has extensively written on the new European phenomenon of consanguineous marriage in Islam.
Amongst Moroccans the percentage of consanguineous marriages is 22 percent. Amongst Turks even 24 percent according to the research. The consanguineous marriages are a Middle Eastern practice that strengthen kinship ties and improve solidarity amongst members of clans and tribes. It also causes lower loyalty to the national state both in the Middle East and in new areas of Muslim settlement such as Europe. The fractuous nature of consanguineous marriages are illustrated by the political and military situation on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The obstacles faced by the USA in the Middle East caused by consanguinus marriage have also been covered by Steve Sailer in "The cousin marriage conundrum"
Consanguineous marriage leads to nepotism and clannishness. It is an obstacle to achieving a Middle Eastern any settlements by Western forces.
It is also a menace to society for Western nations whose elites are so blinded to reality that they accept settlement of their land by Muslims. Due to Liberalism (the believe that all cultures are equal) Westerners have become unable to know this and to deal with this matter.
