Islamist Group Warns Dutch Over Anti-Muslim Attacks
2004-11-08
More bully boyz in turbans, threatening entire nations...
That didn't take long.
A little-known Islamist group has threatened to carry out attacks in the Netherlands following a series of attacks on Muslim buildings there, according to an Internet statement posted on Tuesday. "We command ask you for the last time, and you still have a chance, to stop the attacks on our mosques, schools and the Muslim community in Holland ... before you loose your dhimmi status pay a heavy price," Islamic Tawhid Brigades said in a statement dated Nov. 9 and posted on a Web site used by Islamists. There have been several attacks against Dutch mosques since a film director critical of Islam, Theo van Gogh, was killed last Tuesday by a suspected Islamist militant. A bomb damaged an Islamic primary school in a southern Dutch town on Monday. "We will not stand with our hands tied and we will make the Dutch government and people pay dearly," Islamic Tawhid said in the statement, whose authenticity could not be verified. The group has claimed responsibility for last month's bombings on the Egyptian Sinai peninsula but has not been officially linked to them.

#9  "We will not stand with our hands tied"

No, hopefully, you'll hang by the neck with your hands tied.

#8  We'll see soon if today's Dutch have the tenacity their forefathers had in years of war with the Spanish. They'd see the butchery of Haarlem and Antwerp [then part of community of the Netherlands], but would not yield to an even bigger and stronger force directed from Madrid. I hope their posterity today will reject Mecca as an overlord as well.

Notice that they talk about Holland as if it was not their country. How can people who are born and raised in a country not feel part of it?

#2  The Islamists have miscalculated. The Dutch are tolerant and patient but they have a temper too. Their bit has been flipped and now the EUrabians will hear from a Dutch uncle.

#1  I may be premature on this, but I think that the battle lines are drawn and this is a skirmish on the coming battle between Europe and Islam (note I don't say radical Islam). The Dutch govt is going to try to finesse this but Islamic communities in Holland will not really cooperate with the govt on getting rid of radicals and terrorists. This show is not one for sitting down and eating popcorn, like the Arafish and Suha. This one is for keeps and we, on the west side of the pond, better be watching closely and taking notes.
