"It's only a matter of time."

If so it is pretty much the Muslim's choice--everyone ELSE manages to get along.

Actually, in my original posting I quoted the following two lines:

For a country that has legalised gay marriage, prostitution, euthanasia and cannabis, Holland seems in no mood for compromise when it comes to applying tough laws on immigration.

and

From being considered a bastion of multiculturalism, Holland these days is promoting “Dutchness” for all and penalties for people who refuse to fit in.

And the inference was that it seems they're (Dutch) are very accepting of what they want (drugs, hookers, no responsibilities for their elders, detestable families) and less tolerant of those who don't approve of those things (i.e. Muslims/Islam; bombing and murder aside). Christianity, on a whole, is also 'down' in the country because of the same intolerance but the Dutch probably don't completely want to eliminate † in the country because of their neighbors AND the fact that † was a big part of their history.

Islam/Muslims are, OTOH, completely foreign and, so, easier to be more intolerant-of when it comes to the present Dutch's 'purity of ideals' and their desires.
