NOT THE SHARPEST KNIFE IN THE DRAWER: Dutch Dhimmitude


Bishop Martinus "Tiny" Muskens, of the diocese of Breda, advises Catholic churches in the Netherlands to replace G-d with Allah while celebrating the Eucharist to promote rapprochement between Christianity and Islam and to ease tensions.

The Stiletto cannot understand why Christians in the Netherlands need to ease tensions with Muslims, instead of the other way around, considering filmmaker Theo van Gogh’s brutal murder by an Amsterdam-born Muslim in 2004.

Recall that Mohammed Bouyeri shot van Gogh eight times, slit his throat – nearly decapitating him – and stabbed him in the chest with two knives. One of the knives was used to affix a five-page jihadi manifesto to van Gogh’s body that called for the destruction of America and all "nonbelievers" in the name of Allah - the Beneficent - the Merciful (scroll down for the English translation). The manifesto also threatened the life of Ayaan Hirshi Ali, who wrote and narrated Van Gogh’s film, "Submission," which criticized treatment of women in Islamic countries.

Bishop Muskens is a controversial figure, who has defied Vatican leadership on other matters. Thankfully, he is set to retire soon, and can get on his knees to Allah all he wants. As for his fellow countrymen, a survey of more than 4,000 people published in Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf finds that 92 percent do not want their tulips uttering a prayer to Allah.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) thinks it’s a good idea for everyone to pray to Allah, according to spokesperson Ibrahim Hooper. ‘Nuff said.

    Nice tolerant Muslims, eh? In sura 110 or thereabouts in the Quran, there lies a verse about me having my religion, and you having your own. If Allah were even equivalent to the G-d of Christians, you'd think someone would have noticed about a millenium ago.
