I doubt it's Islam, since most converts change their name to reflect their adopted psychopathology.

Presumably his religion is secular humanism.

Perhaps the next time some murderous hoarde invades the Netherlands, threatening to extinguish the light of liberty for a thousand years, the British should think twice about sending a generation's finest young men to liberate the place.

Eric van Schijndel - UNMOVIC - email: schijndel@un.org

Of course there could be more than one van Schijndel in the nest of vipers at the UN.

Now what is UNMOVIC ....

Unfortunately it happens all too often. In the 1980s there was an Amenian terrorist group in Canada that targeted Turkish diplomatic missions. In an attack on the Turkish embassy in Ottawa they murdered a Canadian guard.

UNMOVIC ....LET'S SEE WHY HE WOULD BE PISSED AT THE BRITS...as a member of working group UNMOVIC....(http://www.unmovic.org)

"The United Nations Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) was created through the adoption of Security Council resolution 1284 of 17 December 1999. UNMOVIC replaced the former UN Special Commission (UNSCOM) and continues with the mandate to verify Iraq's compliance with its obligation to be rid of its weapons of mass destruction The Secretary-General of the United Nations appointed Dr. Hans Blix of Sweden to be the Commission’s Executive Chairman...."

Not sure if that was a rhetorical question. UNMOVIC was the weapons inspectors. The linked article above notes that Eric was involved with image analysis . . . and isn't happy with US and UK policy in Iraq.

A good peace protestor I suppose. Probably took bomb (not bong, though they probably did that too) making seminars in the park with the other fruitcases carrying Bush=Hitler signs.

It would be just priceless if it turns out that a UN employee is responsible for the explosion.

I TRY to pass comments like that one by for fear of appearing GLEEFUL during tragedies, but, boy, I'd come wherever you are and we could dance in the streets if that happens!

*Sigh*

If you have not already done so, please sign the petition to get the stinking, corrupt to the core UN out of the USA. Let's help relocate these anti-American thugs to some 3rd world shithole where they belong.

Yes, he seems to me involved in image analysis / satellite inspection via a workging group called: ungiwg.org.

And people wonder why LA Times, W-P subscriptions are down. You get this level of detail here for free. Meanwhile MSM are scrambling to find a way NOT to pull the U.N. into the story. 48 hours from nw they grudgingly admit a UN'er is under investigation.

This is going to be one very interesting story if the bomber turns out to be a UN worker.

I despise people that bomb in one country to try and affect another. If someone has a problem with the Brits - go there and fight your battle not here. Just being a smart aleck here, but technically the British Consulate is British soil. *running back into my hole*

Maybe the UN has gone from financial crimes and supporting terrorists to committing acts of terror under diplomatic immunity.
