"Well, to tell the family secret, my grandmother was Dutch."

The Netherlands, where six per cent of the population is now Muslim, is scrapping multiculturalism:
The Dutch government says it will abandon the long-standing model of multiculturalism that has encouraged Muslim immigrants to create a parallel society within the Netherlands.
A new integration bill (covering letter and 15-page action plan), which Dutch Interior Minister Piet Hein Donner presented to parliament on June 16, reads: “The government shares the social dissatisfaction over the multicultural society model and plans to shift priority to the values of the Dutch people. In the new integration system, the values of the Dutch society play a central role. With this change, the government steps away from the model of a multicultural society.”
The letter continues: “A more obligatory integration is justified because the government also demands that from its own citizens. It is necessary because otherwise the society gradually grows apart and eventually no one feels at home anymore in the Netherlands...”
The new integration policy will place more demands on immigrants. For example, immigrants will be required to learn the Dutch language, and the government will take a tougher approach to immigrants to ignore Dutch values or disobey Dutch law.
The government will also stop offering special subsidies for Muslim immigrants because, according to Donner, “it is not the government’s job to integrate immigrants.” The government will introduce new legislation that outlaws forced marriages and will also impose tougher measures against Muslim immigrants who lower their chances of employment by the way they dress. More specifically, the government will impose a ban on face-covering Islamic burqas as of January 1, 2013.

All because of Gert Wilder's courage, now they move forward. What great news.
The government will also stop offering special subsidies for Muslim immigrants...
THAT'S THE KEY RIGHT THERE!
Thanks for finding and posting all this.
Hup, Holland, Hup!
“Black culture” didn’t exist prior to the civil rights era. It was artificially created as a means of creating a separation to benefit democrats. Its the concertina wire that tops the democrat plantation fence.
If you look at blacks of the 30s, 40s, and 50s, they were culturally indistinguishable from whites. Most conservative blacks are still culturally the same as whites.
Good observation.

sorry, no ping list...
Australia has a skilled migrant shortage, low unemployment.
Great find! Suspiciously quiet crickets from the global news media. One would think this item would make news round the world. NOT...yet.
Islam is a political system as well as a religion.
It is a theocracy.
For some reason the separation of mosque and state is not a problem for those who take issue with Christian politicians. Those who are the most "tolerant" would be the first to lose their heads in a society that is controlled by -- or even strongly influenced by-- Islam
...you noticed...? My daughter sent that to me from OUTBACK AUSTRALIA. The article is circulating throughout the country, and New Zealand.
Our ‘news’ now comes to us through the ‘underground’. Shades of the USSR!
How about as a place to retire?
I’m biased...I think it’s the best place on earth...we also have a health system that works!
