"Christians don't do fatwahs." Ah, wait. Christians do fatwahs, if you define them as is done here as "declarations of faith". What Christians don't generally do is enforce obesiance to declarations of faith to the point of murder. THAT'S the difference.

I hope it won't sound like sour grapes if I say I meant to make a similar comment in reply #1, but forgot. Excellent analysis. And as much as I'm down on multiculturalism and other liberal dogma, I have to say that if Europe (and especially the Netherlands) gets Dhimmi-ized, it will not be because they embraced multiculturalism. It will be because they were so cowardly that when someone said "I am a murdering scumbag, and you will respect my religious doctrines or I will kill you, " their response was not to be brave, or even just laugh, but to get down and immediately lick the boots of the terrorizer.

They will fall because of base cowardice, and whether the philosophies caused or just abetted the cowardice has something of the chicken and the egg to it.
