Some additions:

Fortuyn becamse famous when he went into debate on tv with Imam Haselhoef. Haselhoef claimed that homosexuals should be executed (he later said he was not talking about Holland, but in coutries where it is law, like Saudi Arabia). As Fortuyn is gay, I can imagine why he dislikes islam. Also Fortuyn's party (List Pim Fortuyn) is just one of the two parties (Livable Netherlands, the former party of Fortuyn) that supports Israel 100% (Fortuyn wrote in 1997 a book about Israel).

In Rotterdam, the city where his local party won the elections, a shocking crime figure was presented: after a report of the police, it became apperent that 99% of all street-robberies were being committed by immigrants (31% Moroccans, 45% Antillian, the rest by Turks or Easter-Europeans). Maybe that gives you people a clue why so many people voted Fortuyn.

The demonization of Pim Fortuyn, the Dutch up and coming politician

Also the Green party mentioned is Green Left. A few weeks after the debate where Rosenmoller made that remark about Fortuyn could not take critisizm, Rosenmoller made the same mistake. He was interviewed and he was asked what he and his party has done for the Dutch people, he answered with things like educational projects for criminal immigrants, integration projects and so on. The interviewer then asked him again, but he also added "no I did ask you what have you done for Dutch people". Rosenmoller was silent and began to stutter. He left and forbid broadcast of this interview. He later said that the interview could be broadcasted.

More on Green Left (and the PvdA, socialists) in Amsterdam and what they have done for us Dutch people:

AP thinks a truly TOLERANT people should overlook such a minor detail. Its gotta be the latent racism.

He calls Islam anti-secular and backward, and blames Muslim immigrants for rising crime. ``Islam separates people. They see us as inferior. Moroccan boys never steal from a Moroccan, did you ever notice that?'' he said to the newspaper De Volkskrant earlier this year.

If my choice was between the dubious Dutchman, and the murdering Musli, I'll take the Dutchman every time.

His points are right on target: Holland isn't an immigrant country (tiny, most densely populated in Europe). Musli don't follow long-held western values, do crimes.

Voters across Europe will be sending messages of (non)appreciation, to their governments.

I am not surprised they are facing demons. From what I understand, that country went to hades some time ago.

I had to laugh when the "social historian" (a perfect occupation for the PC if there ever was) whined about how the Dutch would object to the construction of a mosque but not a church.

Would our esteemed "social historian" care to project what the result would be, should a Christian choose to construct a church in Saudi Arabia?

Yet, the Dutch are expected to be tolerant of these invaders, who would show them zero tolerance whatsoever in their own Turd World hellhole homelands.

The history of Holland, a tiny nation which rose to greatness on the world stage (a greatness in vast disproportion to its size), proves that the nation did just fine without Islam. If and when it becomes Islamic, will it still be the same nation it was? Will it do just fine with Islam? Somehow I doubt it, and I have a sick feeling we are going to find out.

For a good laugh, by the way, go the Guardian talk boards and watch how self-hating, constipated, idiots perceive Fortuyn. One would think that these clowns would at least cut him some slack because he is an "oppressed person" himself, but one would be wrong. I suppose the ethnic/racial aspect trumps all others.

Thanks for these posts on the Netherlands elections. You are our eyes on Europe. The question now is, what to do about the conditions already in existence ? The only remedy is to cull out those illegally there, and then for the Dutch to have more babies.

What do you think ?

Like many of our politricksters would! That's why they try to keep us focused on 'social security'.

At first, Fortuyn was dismissed as appealing only to the bigoted fringe. Then he stunned the nation March 6 when his makeshift 6-week-old party won 35 percent of the vote for city council seats in Rotterdam, nearly half of whose residents come from immigrant backgrounds.

So 70% of native born Dutch voted for him...
