Looks like Holland is waking up - tho' sadly it took two vicious post-9/11 murders to stir them from their sleep (Pim Fortuyn's and Theo Van Gogh's).
Now, a very popular Dutch pol' (Geert Wilders) is calling for a 5 year halt to all NON-WESTERN immigration. He said that un-integrated immigrants threaten Dutch culture.
"He cited a report by Dutch intelligence saying recruitment for jihad, or holy war, is taking place in as many as 20 mosques in the Netherlands, and said they should be closed and their imams, or preachers, arrested and deported. 'If we don’t do anything ... we will lose the country that we have known for centuries. People don’t want the Netherlands to be lost, and this is something that I get angry about and I am going to fight for, to keep the country Dutch,' he said." (According to AP as reported by MSNBC.)
I believe all countries EVERYWHERE should expect ALL immigrants to ASSIMILATE. In fact, I've coined a catch-phrase - based on an earlier one that was pretty effective ("No taxation without representation.") - which captures this belief: "No immigration without assimilation."
We need it here as much as they need it in Europe.
