Dutch mosque razed:-

BRUSSELS | June 15, 2005 6:13:54 PM IST

A mosque was gutted by an arson attack in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

The cause of the fire has yet to be established, but slogans painted on the wall of the mosque point to the probable involvement of extreme right-wing groups opposed to Muslim immigration.

No mosque in south read one slogan, while another said Theo R.I.P -- a reference to the controversial filmmaker Theo van Gogh who was slain by a Muslim fanatic in November. After the killing, several mosques were burned and others were daubed with anti-Muslim graffiti.

Interviewed by RTL news, mosque chairman Abdoelhak Billar said, Arson and racist slogans are an abnormal act ... committed only by pathetic people.

Yep Europe will be an interesting place to watch the next couple of decades. I doubt their big issue will be supplanting the US as a world power.

point to the probable involvement of extreme right-wing groups opposed to Muslim immigration.

As opposed to "right-wing" groups or "extreme left-wing" goups or just plain people fed up with the spread of Islam and their ideas into their country.

The islamist apologists use that technique all of the time.

Anyone who tells the truth about what islam IS and what they DO is called names and shouted down by the PC droids.

Heck they might even try to call a person a drunk or a bigot!

Too bad for them all, (islamists and their PC droid apologists et. al.), TRUTH is an absolute defense.
