Former Dutch EU commissioner says "recognizable" Jews are no longer safe in Netherlands due to Muslim anti-Semitism.
Former European Union Commissioner Frits Bolkenstein said that Jews have no future in the Netherlands and recommended that they emigrate to the US or Israel, Dutch magazine Elsevier reported on Tuesday.
According to a book on Dutch Judaism, released this week, Bolkestein, former leader of the right-wing VVD party, said that due to anti-Semitism amongst young Moroccans, Jews who look like Jews - those who wear kippahs or payot - should leave Holland for their own safety.
"I see no future for recognizable Jews, in particular because of anti-Semitism, specifically in Dutch Moroccans, who continue to grow in number," Bolkestein reportedly said.
The former politician added that the many Arab television channels in the Netherlands contribute to the spread of anti-Semitism. He said he has no confidence in proposed measures to combat anti-Jewish sentiment.
"The Palestinian-Israeli conflict continues to fester," Bolkestein said. "I foresee no quick solution, and anti-Semitism will continue to exist. Moroccan and Turkish young people won't care about the measures."
Politician Geert Wilders, who visited Israel this week, responded that "Jews shouldn't emigrate, anti-Semitic Moroccans should."

None that I know of.
Now we know why a less than complimentary term for the Dutch is “Swamp German”. They are lost, deep in the Swamp of Socialism.
Way before 2050:
I see no future for the Netherlands.
But is it OK if we hide in sunless annexes??

Tolerance can only go so far before it becomes poison.
Europe Died in Auschwitz By Sebastian Villar Rodriguez September 23, 2005
I was walking along Raval (in Barcelona) when all of a sudden I understood that Europe died with Auschwitz. We assassinated 6 million Jews in order to end up bringing in 20 million Muslims!
We burnt in Auschwitz the culture, intelligence and power to create.
We burnt the people of the world, the one who is proclaimed the chosen people of God.
Because it is the people who gave to humanity the epic figures who were capable of changing history (Christ, Marx, Einstein, Freud...) and who represent the origin of progress and well being.
We must admit that Europe, by relaxing its borders and giving in under the pretext of tolerance to the values of a fallacious cultural relativism, opened its doors to 20 million Muslims, often illiterates and fanatics that we could meet, at best, in places such as Raval, the poorest of the nations and of the ghettos, and who are preparing the worst, such as the 9/11 and the Madrid bombing and who are lodged in apartment blocs provided by the social welfare.
We also have exchanged culture with fanaticism, the capacity to create with the will to destroy, the wisdom with the superstition. We have exchanged the transcendental instinct of the Jews, who even under the worst possible conditions have always looked for a better, peaceful world, for the suicide bomber.
We have exchanged the pride of life for the fanatic obsession of death. Our death and that of our children.
What a grave mistake we made!
Agreed. Within a common Judeo-Christian European culture it was a fine thing. Tolerating Islam is like inoculating with smallpox to determine a fatal dose.
>>2010 - I see no future for Jews in the Netherlands.
2030 - I see no future for Christians in the Netherlands.
2040 - I see no future for non-Muslims in the Netherlands.
2050 - I see no future for infadels in the Netherlands.<<
I think your timeline is far too expanded. This might be more accurate.

Those who see no future for the Jews, obviously has never studied the past. Every society which has attempted to rid the world of the Jews has disappeared off the face of the Earth.
And the Jews are still here.
And probably bathed more.

We do not belong there anyway. Time to pack and go home.
Now they will pay the price because the chickenzz are just now coming home to roost.
We don't belong here either. Wish I had the courage to go home.
I agree it was pretty sorry, although in the hinterlands there was a passable resistance. As to now, it wasn't much, but few European nations did as much to help us in Afghanistan. There is still a big divide between the rural small towns and the urban left, just like there is here.
