I'm impressed by the Dutch as of late.

It appears that not just a few of them actually have spines and free spirits. Maybe there's hope for them after-all.

So one person gets killed by Muslims and we see a rash of violence against the Muslims in the Netherlands.

We lose 3000 folks under a planned attack by Muslim terrorists, and the vindictive nature of the US population results in one dead Sikh (who unfortunately was mistaken for a Muslim.)

And Europeans claim the moral high ground and that Americans are a bunch of idiot hate mongers???

"Theo Van Gogh sparked fury from some Muslims with a film that accused their religion of promoting violence against women."

That should read, 'sparked fury from muslims with a film revealing their religion promotes violence against everyone including women!'

There has always been a nationalist Dutch underground. Remember that Pim Van Tuin, a flagrantly gay nationalist conservative (parse that, baby) was due to win national elections before he was assasinated. There is still a stong anti-foreign element in Holland.

Islam does promote violence towards women.

And what's with the "fury?" There I was hearing all about Islams tolerance...

The Muslims probably torched these mosques themselves. The damage is always superficial, none of the mosques have been destroyed. Their populations are radicalized by these actions.

They can now claim to have been "attacked".
They probably dump some gasoline on a brick wall and set it on fire in a location where it is certain to inflict only minor damage. Then claim, "The Dutch are RACISTS!"

Now look at Beslan to see how the Muslims do it when they attack a Christian institution.

"Police say dozens of people have been arrested, including both radical Islamists and far-right extremists"

Only a matter of time before there will be no middle-of-the-roaders. As Islam becomes more radicalized, their hosts will move from center and will all be called 'far-right extremists.' Cause and effect. If Islam is as scholarly as it claims to be they would know that. Were not the hosts friendly to begin with?

More than ten Christian churches and Muslim mosques have been damaged by fire since a Dutch filmmaker was killed by a suspected Islamic militant at the start of November

Who's keeping score?

Looks like the Dutch have completed their correspondence course titled, "Dealing with militant Muslims-101" offered on line by the University of Belgrade, Distance Learning program.
