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.

Beautiful peace, GW.  The pictures are wonderful.  Does anyone have any idea if there is a remembrance for TVG on this most unfortunate of anniversaries in Holland?

Kubilai - Peaktalk, a blog by a Dutch expat living in Canada has been writing about TVG for the past year. The last paragraph of today’s entry has an archive of the blog’s TVG material of the past year.

This entry from December 13 2004 contains translations of TVG’s writings. The paragraph on the Amsterdam mayor kowtowing to Muslims after 9/11 is interesting:

The size of the crowds, and with their near complete whiteness, along with the makeshift memorials of flowers and posters are good evidence of a stirring in the group consciousness of the white Dutch.

This anniversary is getting the same blackout treatment in America given to the French rioters.

Methinks the globalization elite clique’ is getting concerned for the progress of their mission. Whites are not in revolt yet, but they have shown a remarkably consistent pattern of volutary re-segregation.

Not as easy as Zionist Sumner Redstone’s MTV would like.

Impressive, to say the least. But what is the message of that (half-?) naked couple in the third photo from the top? Perhaps the inscription on the lady’s body is the key—“ik ben” something—could somebody explain?

‘Ik ben ook een Theo Van Gogh” means “I am also a theo van gogh” —she’s saying that she stands up the the muslims also.  I’m so delighted to see that the dutch (my heritage) are finally taking a stand.

Also ‘Ik ben vrouw’ means I am a woman… No better way to piss off a conservative muslim than flash bare breasts at him.

<u>What kind of society</u>, after enduring the tragedy of September 11, continues not only to allow the coreligionists of the September 11 terrorists to flourish within its borders but to invite even more to cross those borders and take up residence within? The answer is simple: Only a dying society would accept the presence of such a fifth column. And only a society with a death wish would take the further step of praising that fifth column and encouraging its members to remain true to their religion of war.” —Scott Richert, via <u>The Ambler</u>

Sites such as this one are a tremendous resource. It’s been said that Islamists (Arabs) are engaged in a global insurgency. But who knows? Whites enjoy the internet frequency and could get a lucky break. Who’s to say what will happen in the future.

Thank you, Bob. By the way, this sad anniversary coincides with Moslem rioting in Paris. I wonder how the Dutch government would react if something like that started in Amsterdam?

You write: This entry from December 13 2004 contains translations of TVG’s writings. The paragraph on the Amsterdam mayor kowtowing to Muslims after 9/11 is interesting:
http://www.peaktalk.com/archives/000955.php

This is an excerpt out of a larger text. By that time I myself made a translation of the same, i. e. van Gogh’s last press article in Metro (see below).  In all modesty I would pretend that it gives a better image of van Gogh’s style and about the way he provoked the Muslims, not only by some of his well known one-liners that caricature him, but also in a more sophisticated way.

BTW, possibly this article played a much bigger role than is generally accepted.  Metro is a newspaper that reaches 1.467.000 people in Holland and currently is Amsterdam’s biggest. I even have the guts to make the very Political Incorrect remark, that because it is a free newspaper, I expect them to have relatively much Moroccan readers.

The article/column:
OUR MAYOR (of Amsterdam)
In The Telegraph (de Telegraaf is a major Dutch newspaper) I read that Mr Abou Jahjah considers to leave Belgium, although he thinks to need another five years to train his successor at the AEL (Arab European League). Abou is embittered. He only got 1,400 votes at the last elections and considers the Flemish people below his dignity. Abou Jahjah:  “God hasn’t been generous for Flanders when he distributed brains. It has always been a racist people.’’ I found this nicely said, such as it was also very instructive to read that his Lordship considered each dead American soldier as a victory. As the prophet’s pimp one cannot aim high enough.
You would say, a religious fascist who wants to introduce Islamic law – with all what this means for disbelievers, Jews, homo’s, women and renegades - is not someone with whom you take the effort to go in debate? By the way, I remember very well how Abou let slip that the heretic Ayaan Hirsi Ali had to be locked up. It was not clear if Allah’s shoeshine boy meant that she had to be locked up in a mental hospital or behind bars, but I don’t think that she would walk around much longer if the splendid glory of the sharia was introduced here (in Holland). However someone who thinks that Mr Jahjah wants the best for us, is the major of Amersterdam, who started a public dialogue with him and who got afterwards as a reward to hear: “finally a politician who understands me”. A splendid compliment about which Cohen has certainly been permanently very proud. As “fixer” with ambition you indeed should undertake everything - this is a citation - “to keep things together”. What a pity for Cohen that just now it must be once again Moroccan boys who have teased a native Dutch couple out of the city. That happens everywhere in Amsterdam, but it is only because the Volkskrant (the People’s Daily) gave now attention to it, that the question became political.
The Amsterdam police force is not interested to assist native Dutch people who are threatened by a minority that always becomes more aggressive. And Cohen not at all. When Mr Abou Jahjah’s sympathisers did in three thousand Americans in the WTC, then our major’s first trip was to the mosque. In schools, in mosques, everywhere in Amsterdam this marvellous victory over Satan was celebrated.  Cohen crawled thus for the believers (in Allah) and stressed the point: “ you belong to us.’’ Instead of asking: “for heavens sake, what are you doing here?” Cohen behaves himself as a major under occupation and this is not meant as a compliment. His presence demoralises the city and set-up groups against each other. According to the great thinker Frits Abrahams (NRC Handelsblad - a major Dutch daily) Cohen is “a democrat in heart and soul”. But I suspect our major to be a cunning cynic - no bad quality for someone who wants to become prime-minister - and he is a purebred opportunist too. And I even wonder how long Dutch natives will still be welcome in Amsterdam.

Good news. The American actor/director Steve Buscemi is going to remake Theo Van Gogh’s movies, according to a ‘diary’ he writes for London’s Daily Telegraph. Go Steve.

Posted by Fred Scrooby on Sat, 05 Nov 2005 16:30 | #

Al Ross, we were all outraged at Theo van Gogh’s murder but as for his films, I don’t know that a right-thinking person would consider them anything to cheer about.  Furthermore, Steve Buscemi isn’t exactly what one would call ... how to put it? ... what one would call, shall we say, a wholesome-minded individual with, shall we say, wholesome tastes in things ... (which explains his attraction to the idea of re-making van Gogh’s films ...).  Van Gogh was probably like his great great uncle:  a very good man but insane.  The fact that his slaughter was an immense shame, wrong, outrage, and filthy, sickening crime doesn’t mean his artistic creations or all of his political views were palatable.

Fred Scrooby, any artistic endeavor which tells the sorry truth about the disgusting behavior of Muslims in Europe towards women( or any other group) should surely be welcomed. I would not be interested in cinematic critiques of Muslim pathologies as played out in their own homelands(after all, what does one expect from a pig but a grunt, to employ an unislamic analogy). With regards to Buscemi’s moral character, it is of no moment. Walt Whitman wrote very fine poetry, the literary judgement of which is unaffected by the fact that he was a pederastic pedophile.

Posted by Fred Scrooby on Sun, 06 Nov 2005 02:09 | #

Al Ross, thanks for your reply.  I’m not a fan of Walt Whitman’s poetry, by the way (reading it has always been torture for me and I’m sincerely baffled at the celebrity the man acquired)—but let’s accept the common opinion of his greatness.  Buscemi is no Walt Whitman, I don’t think I need to point out, but a pathetic little marginal twerp on the fringes of acting and directing.  As for van Gogh’s art films, his first film, in the early 80s I think it was, ended with a guy killing the female lead by shoving the barrel of a revolver up her private parts and pulling the trigger—and that was after a filmful of similar weird, disgusting nonsense apparently.  Look, the fact I don’t think the Imams should have put a price on Salman Rushdie’s head doesn’t mean his book had literary value—which I don’t for one second believe it did.

I don’t like blasphemers.

Posted by Al Ross on Sun, 06 Nov 2005 10:41 | #

Fred Scrooby, thank you for your comment.Accusing a non-believer,as Theo Van Gogh was, of blasphemy is like accusing a teetotaller of inebriation. One of the most baneful forces in the downward spiral of our race has been a mindless devotion to the Jewish-invented Jesus cult, not to mention its spookless derivatives Communism and Liberalism. If one had to design the belief-system most inimical to our racial interests and most unsuited to the White psyche, Christianity would be it.

Posted by Fred Scrooby on Sun, 06 Nov 2005 22:12 | #

Al, there is way too much effeminate liberalism in today’s Christianity, granted.  That’s not intrinsic to Christianity, though—for counter-examples look at Jesuit Catholicism in general, or John Knox, or John Calvin’s or Martin Luther’s Protestantism, or Oliver Cromwell’s masculine version of Christianity, or that of the Italian Renaissance, or of the early Church fathers in Palestine, Asia Minor, and Greece, or, for that matter, of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Bloody Mary, and Elizabeth I.  Look at the Eastern Orthodox Church:  it’s not infected, or not to anywhere near the extent we are in the West with the likes of John Spong, Rowan Williams, and about two-thirds of the current Vatican Court.  It can change:  what has been can be again.

Just to clarify, when I said I disliked blasphemers I meant all of them, not just blasphemers of Christianity.  Van Gogh blasphemed Christianity and Islam, of course, and I oppose that, as regards both.  I deeply respect Christianity, which is my own religion, and also Islam, and all serious religions (Santaria, Wicca, and the like don’t qualify as serious religions in my view).  Rushdie, for example, blasphemed Islam, and I oppose that.  From what I’ve read he could’ve said what he felt he had to say without going out of his way to blaspheme.  There shouldn’t be a fatwa on him obviously—but that doesn’t mean he’s not a disrespectful, contemptible little no-talent creep—which is exactly what he is (and a radical left-winger to boot).  The guy makes my skin crawl, to put it frankly.

Posted by Al Ross on Sun, 06 Nov 2005 23:32 | #

Fred, your consistency regarding the antique offensive of blasphemy does you credit. However some of your ‘counter-examples’ of muscular Christianity are unusual to say the least. To take just one instance, Oliver Cromwell repealed several centuries worth of that part of England’s penal code which banned Jews from settling in England.The proscription had been in force since(if memory serves)the year 1290 and its revocation was contrary to the interests of the English people.


21

Posted by Fred Scrooby on Mon, 07 Nov 2005 02:49 | #

Al, I see what you’re saying—that Cromwell’s inviting the Jews back into England can be viewed in a way as resembling today’s liberal multi-culti program of inviting alien cultures into our midst.  But my understanding is he did it not from a 1600s version of today’s liberalism—i.e., not from some 1600s impulse to destroy, to destroy what normalness and rooted tradition they knew in those days by diluting it with things utterly alien—but rather from exactly the opposite impulse:  a Biblically-based conviction that the Jews were an integral part of Christian tradition in its deepest sense, so that ending their exclusion from England helped to “complete” Christianity there and, if anything, strengthen not weaken its roots.  That motivation would be absolute anathema to today’s multi-culti liberals who accept only what leads to Christianity’s destruction whether through direct or indirect means, never to its strengthening. 

But my overall reference in my comments was to the lack of balance in Christianity, not necessarily to a need for a more “muscular” Christianity.  Christianity is best when it’s dominated neither by effeminateness nor by an outlook that’s excessively masculine to the diminishment of the feminine virtues:  it needs balance.  And masculinity doesn’t necessarily mean “muscular” in an unnuanced sense—men also have compassion, gentleness, forebearance, and so on, but masculine versions of all those.  In Christianity today, one too often looks in vain for masculine versions of those:  effeminate versions seem to dominate for some reason. 

That’s why today’s Christianity is a de facto ally of race-replacement:  the ability to perceive those realities men know as race and the nation-state is not something the feminine spirit possesses in abundance.  The female brain doesn’t easily see either race or the nation-state. 

The predominance in today’s Christianity of an effeminate rather than a balanced outlook needs to change and doubtless will:  the pendulum swings.  I estimate we’re about a century-and-a-half into it, and my guess is it won’t last too much longer before there’s some restoration of a more proper balance.

Netherlands 25 percent Nonwhite, Will Become Majority Third World within 1 Generation

New Observer, 28 Sept 2018:

The recent arrest of a further seven legally-resident nonwhites for terrorism in the Netherlands has highlighted the fact that, thanks to pro-mass Third World immigration policies, at least 25 percent—and most likely more—of that small nation’s population is now nonwhite, and if current trends continue, that country will become majority Third World within one generation.


A street scene in Rotterdam.

According to the official Dutch census bureau, the total number of residents of the Netherlands stands at 17,081,507, of which 13,218,754 have a “Dutch background,” to use the official terminology.

Of these “immigrant background” population, the Dutch census bureau claims that 2,173,723 have a “non-western” background, made up of 391,088 Moroccans, 153,469 Antillean and Arubans, 349.978 Surinamese, 400,367 Turks, and 878,821 “assorted not-Westerners.”

To this total must be added the “first generation non-westerners,” which the census bureau puts at 1,199,972, and the “second generation non-westerners,” which the census bureau puts at 973,751. The census bureau claims that third generation “non-westerners” are now Dutch and count them as of “Dutch background.”

This means that by the official record, there are 4,347,446 “non-westerners” living in the Netherlands, or 25.45 percent of the population. When the third generation “non-westerners” are added in, the figure will be even higher.

These figures mean that the Netherlands is due to become a majority nonwhite country within the next generation, or 30 years, thanks to the race-denying liberal immigration policies pursued by that country’s governments for the last five decades. That this will happen is a certainty—unless the current mass Third World immigration invasion is not only halted, but reversed.
