(Angus Reid Global Scan) - Many adults in the Netherlands hold strong views
on the way Muslims adapt to the European continent, according to a poll by
Motivaction released by GPD. 63 per cent of respondents believe think Islam
is incompatible with modern European life.
In September 2004, Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders quit the liberal People's
Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD). Wilders criticized Muslims in the
Netherlands for failing to properly integrate to society, and openly opposed
Turkey's accession to the European Union (EU).
In November 2004, controversial filmmaker Theo Van Gogh was murdered. Van
Gogh directed a short motion picture that depicts a husband's abuse on a
Muslim woman. Death threats to Wilders and other former VVD members were
left at the crime scene.
On May 15, Dutch officials revealed that Somali-born VVD lawmaker Hirsi Ali
provided false information when she applied for refugee status, and then
when she sought citizenship. The next day, the lawmaker announced that she
would leave the Second Chamber immediately. Hirsi Ali confirmed that she
intends to move to the United States and work at the American Enterprise
Institute.
In the January 2003 election, the Christian-Democratic Appeal (CDA) elected
44 lawmakers to the 150-seat Second Chamber. CDA member Jan Peter Balkenende
has acted as minister president since July 2002. In early 2003, Balkenende
established his second coalition government with the VVD and Democrats 66
(D66).
The next legislative ballot is tentatively scheduled for January 2007.

Good news.
For those interested in this, there currently is a Canadian (CBC) documentary that
is posted to alt.binaries.documentaries and alt.binaries.multimedia.documentaries
called 'The Enemy Within'. Check it out:

CBC - The National
The Enemy Within
Allegations of a home-grown terrorist plot have Canadians asking, how
could there be enemies within our own country.. a country that embraces
tolerance and diversity?
Well, some believe that's precisely how, that multi-culturalism doesn't
work. In Europe, a growing number of politicians blame multi-culturalism
for allowing the rise in radical Islam, and they warn it's just a matter
of time before Canada Learns this the hard way. "The National's" Mark
Kelley went to Europe to hear about the enemy within.

Especially since more than 35% in Holland are white and have blond hair
they should understand that Islam is not only a rleigion; it is a racist
religion

Astonishing, actually, but probably exaggerated.
Of course, many respondents are, probably, nit-wits, or worse, even
actual moslems.
Actual support for moslem ideology cannot possibly be anywhere in sight
of 37 per cent, in the real world.
