The Dutch elections of March 15 were billed around Europe and beyond as a battle royal between the forces of populist evil, as represented by Geert Wilders and his Freedom Party (PVV), and virtually everybody else in the motley crew of Dutch electoral politics. The victory of prime minister’s Mark Rutte’s VVD party (which lost 20% of its seats) over Wilders’s PVV (which added 25%), was greeted rapturously as a monumental defeat for populism and great triumph for Europe across the political spectrum.
In fact, it was nothing of the kind, and if its coverage showed anything, it was that the European press, much like the American mainstream press, had become a one-trick pony that is good at demonstrating political bias, but rather useless in helping one understand where Europe is going. For these elections did have some profound implications for the future not only of the Netherlands, but all of Europe, that were nearly completely missed in the tons of ink spilled on partisan post-mortems.
Two things stand out. An openly Islamist party made it into an European parliament on its very first try and the usual political home of Muslims in Europe heretofore -- the socialist Left, suffered a grievous defeat, likely as a result, with the Dutch Labor party losing all but 9 of its 38 seats. This is a paradigm change documenting the growth of political Islam in Europe and almost certainly ushers a new and disturbing trend.
The Islamist party is called Denk (‘think’ in Dutch, “equality” in Turkish) and it was founded by former Labor parliamentarians who are ethnically Turkish. Denk is as radical as Erdogan’s AKP, of which Denk claims to be an affiliate. It openly rejects integration, the worn-out mantra of the Left,

NOTE TO ALL:
Denk is only six months old and yet it managed to garner 205,000 votes in the election. With nearly 1 million Dutch citizens of mostly Turkish and Moroccan descent, its prospects must be considered bright.
Which brings us to the question of what makes Muslims, who in many cases have lived most of their lives in liberal European societies, vote for a party that openly rejects European norms and values.
It is puzzling that 60% of the German Turks and 70% of their Dutch co-ethnics voted for Erdogan in the last elections, as he systematically dismantled what was left of Turkish democracy. The most troubling implication of this is the simple question that European governments never dare ask in their happy integration talk. What happens to Europe if it turns out that its Muslims do not want to integrate?
Erdogan, Turkey’s prime minister, has told all Muslim families living in Europe to up their child production 100%, from 3 children to 6 children, and they will conquer Europe. He is right.
“What happens to Europe if it turns out that its Muslims do not want to integrate?”
Muslims have decided not to integrate. Demographics are the destiny of Europe, just as they are the destiny of the USA. Europeans have already chosen an Islamic future based on the immigration policies of the last half century and the low birth rates of the indigenous population.
The US is heading down a similar path but it is not yet too late for illegal immigration to be stopped and legal immigration to be stopped in order to allow sufficient time for the current immigrant population to assimilate. If current policies of open borders immigration continue, assimilation will not occur and the unique American experiment with limited government will end, supplanted by a socialist dictatorship.
"What happens to Europe when it turns out the Muslims do not want to integrate?"
The Muslim God does not allow for tolerance or integration. Everyone wants eternal salvation. Humans will vote for whoever we believe holds the keys to heaven, despite the evidence around us.
They win, because Western women are aborting the citizens and soldiers to defeat them.
Give us Barabbas.
200 years ago, the Dutch would have just rounded up all the Islam followers and had them killed. Now they invite them in. They just don’t learn, do they.
Free men are caught in the crosshairs of marxists and mohammedans.
Muzzies make babies with their 4 “wives” like rabbits. Humans are barely replacing themselves. Politicians know that and cater to muzzies as they replace humans.
Not going to happen. Rather the USA will break up into different nations.
The only part of Europe that has a bright future is the Eastern part.

Satan has been pushing the Babel temptation for millennia. My sense is he has found a timely people who can be used to finally pull it off, with a glorious (to him) slaughter of millions.
Where is any collective Will to stop him? If it comes it will be from GOD and no other. He alone does wondrous things!
If? Has there ever been even the slightest shred of evidence that they DO want to integrate? Well, some very few, but the vast majority not.
