This letter was forwarded to a blogger on a Dutch news site. It was written by a woman in Antwerp to the mother of an imprisoned Moroccan criminal. The woman wrote the letter after seeing the criminal’s mother on a Flemish television news program. Many thanks to Timo of the Dutch Defence League for the translation:
Dear Madam,
I saw your vehement protests in front of the TV cameras against the transfer of your son from a prison in Aarlen to a prison in Leuven. I heard your complaints about the distance that separates you from your son and the difficulties you have in visiting him. I also noticed the media attention from journalists and reporters about other mothers in similar situations: they are defended by several organization for human rights and such.
I am also a mother, and I completely understand your protests and discontents. I want to join you in your battle because, as you will see, there is also a large distance between me and my son.
I work hard, earn less, and have the same financial difficulties in visiting my son. With a lot of effort I can reach him on Sundays, because I work all the other days, even Saturdays, and besides that I have my family duties towards my other children.
In case you didn’t understand it yet: I am the mother of the boy that was brutally slaughtered by your son, in the gas station he used to work for at night to pay for his studies and support his family.
I will visit him again next Sunday. While you hold your son in your arms and cuddle him, I shall only lay some flowers on his modest grave at the city cemetery.
Oh, and I almost forgot: you don’t have to worry, the state keeps a part of my lousy wage to pay for a new bed for your son, because he burned the two previous ones in his cell where he is doing time for the brutal crime he committed.
Finally, also as mothers, maybe we can contribute something to stop the inversion of human values. Human rights should only be there for the rightfully deserving.
So much for a letter from a grieving mother. Maybe this is something that we, in these dark days, should think about more often!
“maybe we can contribute something to stop the inversion of human values”
Incredibly touching letter.
My bet is that the killer’s family has zero respect for it. They knew these things already. Why would they give a damn simply because it was spelled out to them.
Do you know of any links (in English) to reports on the underlying crime?
On target!
Human rights should be withdrawn from anyone who demonstrates they are no longer human. I would think brutally murdering an innocent young man qualifies.
I disagree. It's not a comeuppance. It's a cry for sanity. A commeuppance would be a bullet to the brain pan of the murder of her son and a speedy deportation of the rest of his miserable family.
All moslems are not terrorist but most terrorists are moslems
Remember the next time some libtard says “all moslems are not terrorists”
My only complaint is the use of passive voice. Active voice is much more forceful in making the point. OTOH, could just be the translation.
For now I'll take the letter at face value and say that it was an absolute waste of time from the standpoint that it would have any effect on the mother of the murderous moslem devoid. In reality, I'd expect that if the murderer or the mother of the murderer could get their mitts on the slain boys mother who wrote the letter they would kill her without a second thought.
islam is not a religion, it is not peaceful and it is not something that should be allowed in any society. It is anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-self determination and anti-everything it is not.
Could be more of a translation error though.
virtually all “international” terrorists are Muslim
when terrorist methods have been used by other groups it is nearly always in a “local” context (i.e., FARC inside Colombia, the IRA and similar groups within the UK etc.)
global Islamic jihad is the source and motivation for virtually all terrorism across national borders
As if this islamist pig gave a damn.
I sometimes wonder if we need to become like the Russian mob towards their enemies.
“If you cross us we will kill you, kill your children, kill your parents and kill your spouse.”
Would it make a difference to these moronic and ignorant muzzies?
Another blog roll spread story without:
1. Author
2. Original Source
3. Background story and verifiable links to the event supposedly behind the story...
These “letter from” stories are getting swallowed by too many people as real who can’t stop to think and question the details and source.
Same for:
Inner Neighborhood Services story
The Bird Feeder story
=8-)
Wrong. Assuming that a moslem is a follower of islam, and that islam is correctly defined by it's scriptures (The koran primarily and the hadith) then upon reading the koran we find what the moslem must do to be a follower of islam. All moslems are terrorists (killers of the innocent with no provocation) else they are not moslem.
Terrorism and islam are inseperable.
I once wrote a letter like that to he who killed my father. The victim witness group forwarded the letter to him and made sure he could not respond in turn. I am sure he threw it across the room and didn’t care a fig. I almost want to write another letter. After all, it’s been ten years since the last. He seems to need publicity every few years. Perhaps he should get a new letter every time.
I agree. This story is too pat. Too self-righteous, with little or no details.
This does not sound like a letter written by a grieving mother.
Would it make a difference to these moronic and ignorant muzzies?
Who cares. As long as we eventually run out of moslems.
