The AP reports that the European Union justice and interior ministers want to start forcing integration onto immigrants. A simple statement that we in the U.S. could learn from
Verdonk said. “If you want to live in the Netherlands, you have to adhere to our rules … and learn our language.”
It’s a sad state of affairs that the New Left has such a stranglehold on this country’s thought (U.S.) that a statement like that is not only considered ‘racist’ and ‘bigoted’ but is fought against so strenously by our so-called ‘right-wing’ government.
Update from Arcane:
Of the about 800,000 Muslims in the Netherlands, the General Intelligence and Security Service estimates that as many as 50,000 are “sympathetic to extremist ideas.” Also, “Geert Wilders, the most outspoken advocate of restricting immigration and the heir apparent to Mr. Fortuyn, has shed his pariah status virtually overnight and now has about 20 backers in the 150-member Dutch parliament.” Mr. Wilders is quite blunt in comparison to much of the Western world and has no problems stating that “Ninety percent of our prison population is immigrants, they are the most dependent on our social schemes, they are non-Western and not speaking our language” and that he believes that “Islam is fascist.”
