#1 In a way it's comical that a secular country such as The Netherlands, which is so proud of its liberal policies on soft drugs, prostitution and gay marriage now finds itself in a political struggle with the homophobic, intolerance of Muslims.

A few years ago the mayor of Nogales, Sonora was a Palestinian and things worked out fine - mainly because he considered himself a Mexican first; and secondly because that while Northern Mexico has a considerable minority of Muslims, it is nothing on the scale of Holland's (unassimilated) Mohammadean population.
