Theo and the Dutch

Posted by Guessedworker on Wednesday, 02 November 2005 12:52.

A year ago today Theo Van Gogh was murdered in an Amsterdam street by Mohammed Bouyeri - a Dutch-born Morrocan or, as Theo would have had it, a goat-fucker.

Incorrigibly difficult, no doubt, and rude and brave, Theo was a right-wing advocate of liberty and an implacable enemy of censorship.  For this he was killed and for this, too, he is admired - unquestionably more now than ever during his lifetime.  Admiration for Theo has been expressed all across the political spectrum in Holland because, quite simply, there has to be room for people like him in Dutch society, of all societies.  What people liked about the fabled Dutch tolerance was precisely that.  In stark contrast, Bouyeri’s actions are not simply an extreme expression of intolerance but are intolerable to the point of being anti-Dutch.

The exceptions to this view come from those Theo most opposed, meaning anybody connected to the Dutch government and “the establishment”, and those he gleefully offended, meaning Jews and Moslems and the professional anti-white lobby.

From the first moments after Bouyeri struck, people understood that something big had happened.  It is still happening, and Theo’s memory is an inextricable part of that.

Here are a few photographs that, I hope, catch the spirit of what, in death, Theo - with all his addiction to controversy, all his irritable and irritating outspokenness - has come to mean to the Dutch.

Pity Grandpappy who didn’t have to live clean like those poor boys in Iraq.


FGM and the future of the West

“I had a beautiful life, but at the same time a tough one,” says former model and “Bond girl”, UN ambassador and global campaigner against female genital mutilation, Waris Dirie.  She is interviewed in today’s Telegraph on the occasion of the launch of her new book, Desert Children.  Working with co-writers she has produced two similar books and found time to establish an Austrian-based foundation dedicated to women, like her, who have suffered FGM.  It is a noble endeavour professionally pursued.

Her journey to this extraordinary life began, of course, in a child’s terror:-

Would electoral reform help?

Posted by Guest Blogger on Friday, 28 October 2005 12:37.

The lead article at the excellent VDARE website is interesting for several reasons.

First, it is a reply to some recent articles by MR’s own Geoff Beck. It seems that MR, with over a million hits now, is getting noticed.

Second, it discusses in a calm and reasonable way Geoff’s assertion that there are differences in the way that Congressmen of different ethnicities vote on immigraiton issues.

Police told to treat Muslims differently

Posted by Guest Blogger on Thursday, 27 October 2005 12:13.

Feminism is not quite the force it once was here in Victoria. Still, it has a powerful friend in the Attorney-General, Rob Hulls.

Mr Hulls believes that there is an entrenched bias against women in the law and he has set about rectifying it. In particular he believes that an outmoded, misogynistic legal system has sheltered men who commit acts of domestic violence.

So he has enacted a variety of legal reforms, including giving police the immediate power to detain a man accused of domestic violence for six hours.

Given all this, it was a surprise to read the following in the Melbourne Herald Sun:

“Police are being advised to treat Muslim domestic violence cases differently out of respect for Islamic traditions and habits.

“Officers are also being urged to work with Muslim leaders, who will try to keep the families together.”

Too many Duggars?

Posted by Guest Blogger on Wednesday, 26 October 2005 13:21.

Liberals have their own disappointments. For Mark Morford it’s the fact that the Duggars of Arkansas have recently added a sixteenth “spotless white” child to their family.

And so he has written an article of complaint for a San Francisco paper. It’s a fun read, and something of an insight into the left-liberal mindset.

The article has also been posted here, and the Duggars have their own website, with pictures of the entire brood, here.


Bleeding the Third World

Posted by Guest Blogger on Tuesday, 25 October 2005 11:47.

It can’t get any clearer than this.

The World Bank has released a report heavily critical of skilled immigration into countries like Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

Why? There is considerable evidence that such immigration harms Third World nations. Such nations cannot develop when the majority of their university graduates emigrate to countries like Australia.

Consider this. Jamaica loses 85% of its university graduates to the West; Tonga 75%; Fiji 62%; and Ghana 47%.
