THE HAGUE (AFP) - Two suspected Islamic extremists arrested this week are suspected of plotting to assassinate two Dutch lawmakers known for their critical stance towards Islam, the Dutch press reported.

One of the deputies targeted was Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a liberal lawmaker of Somali origin who co-wrote a film about the place of women in Islam along with Theo van Gogh, the outspoken filmmaker who was murdered by a suspected Muslim radical on November 2, the NRC Handelsblad reported.

The suspects, who were arrested Wednesday in a police raid in The Hague, also intended to kill Geert Wilders, a deputy highly critical of Islam who intends to launch a new, staunchly right-wing, party, the report said.

Both lawmakers have been placed under constant police protection, having received threats in the past.

Prosecutors handling the case refused to comment on the press report.

The two suspects, arrested as part of a wider crackdown on Islamic extremists, are suspected of terrorist conspiracy with the aim of murder and have been provisionally charged with the attempted murder of several policemen wounded during the siege, according to prosecutors.

Police refused to comment on whether their arrests were linked to van Gogh's murder, which has shocked traditionally tolerant Dutch society, fuelling ethnic tensions and sparking a spate of violence against Muslim mosques and schools.

They will continue to use the west's freedom against it until the west either has no muslims
or no freedom

Watch their government's reaction to know which way the wind will blow

Just like here...

Was it a coincidence that this gang of butchers murdered Theo van Gogh 911 days after the killing of Pim Fortuyn - another brave voice against Islamofascism?
