Looks like he wasn't upset that Fortuyn would 'destroy the environment' after all...

Yeah right. It was an expert shot, followed by massive media denigration campaign aimed at Pim Fortuyn character. That can not be accomplished by deranged 'lone gunmen'.

Pim Fortuyn was not against Muslims. Many Duch Muslims were his voters. He was dangerous to Dutch liberal elites, he was against show trial in Den Hague taking place in Holland.

this trial will be used to obfuscate things even further.

he did it to protect the country’s muslim minority from Fortuyn’s anti-immigration policies.

As all Leftists, the killer is not only malicious --- he is also dishonest with himself: why do Muslims that are already in the country need protection from immigration policies. Nah, he simply hated Fortuyn because Fortuyn stood in his way.

I was wondering when the Muslim connection was going to come out.

Is by chance Van der Graaf a practitioner of The Religion of Peace?

He was a leftie, but the left didn't wanted to hear that they created a killer thanks to their demonization of Fortuyn.

I am fine, thanks.

I miss Fortuyn. But he still managed to pull enough people to the right side, we even support the war in Iraq, qith or without the UN. Before Fortuyn, such a thing was unthinkable.

His party is slowly dying though. But a lot of people still believe in what he said.

Muslims in the Netherlands were being used as “scapegoats,” he said. “I saw it as a danger, but what should you do about it?” he said “I hoped that I could solve it myself.”

jDear Lord, knighthawk, words fail me.

Sounds like the peaceful person who killed Anwar Sadat, or the one who killed Robert F. Kennedy, or that other peaceful person who tried to kill the Pope. All from that peace religion.

I miss him, too. Quite a Character. Brought a lot of fun, not to mention moral integrity, to European politics. Cheeky bugger!

wonder when all the gay rights people and the animal rights people and the Muslim rights people and the greens and the pro-abortion people and the pro-pornagraphy Democrats all get together and realize that all their views are diametrically opposed to one another......lol

I can just see a Muslim society welcoming gays openly,,( even if I kind of suspect they welcome them quietly....shhhhh)

Did you catch this:

"Van der Graaf went on to become a tough and successful lawyer."

He gave up this career, a wife, young child to kill for the Muslims? He must be nuts.
