1 I condem this racially motivated attack on these poor muslim freedom fighters, frightened and unfamilliar with our repressive destructive, ecologically harmfull western ways. all cultures are equal and we cannot hold these men responsible for what is clearly a defense and backlash of poverty and of aaaaaahhhhhhh crap I cant spend one more moment thinking like a liberal it makes me feel sick and dirty ive gotta go take a shower.

2 Ha, Ha, Good one!

3 OK, dipshit. These people are clearly criminals, and no one is saying they aren't. They're religious fanatics, and they have no place in a free society. People that fanatical are a very, very tiny minority of Muslims worldwide (or Dutch Muslims for that matter). The Christian fanatics who rave about killing abortion doctors, and once in awhile try to, are also a tiny minority. This is not UNRELATED to the religion of Islam. All religions have quirks that crazy people can exploit if they're bent on doing diabolical things. It just so happens that the West has managed to tick off quite a few Muslim nations over the last few decades, so Islam gets blamed for a lot of this. If you want to chalk up the number of casualties Christians have caused versus the number Muslims have caused, it would be an interesting study, but I would doubt Islam would come out on top. Enough of the closed-minded bigotry that this country thought it had discarded a few decades ago. Come off it, you simple-minded punks. As much as a**holes like these extremists endanger our liberty, you guys endanger it even more. You're UN-AMERICAN, and you can kiss my American a***. Time magazine: "[Benjamin Franklin helped to build a hall] in Philadelphia that was, as he put it, 'expressly for the use of any preacher of any religious persuasion who might desire to say something.' He added, 'Even if the Mufti of Constantinople were to send a missionary to preach Mohammedanism [Islam] to us, he would find a pulpit at his service.' "

4 THOSE MUSLIMS IN HOLLAND SHOULD TAKE A VISIT TO ONE OF THE MANY COFFEE SHOPS IN AMSTERDAM, THEY MAY UNDERSTAND "PEACE" MAN!

5 trr: You're not an American any more than the assholes with rags on their heads collecting money for Al-Queda. Living here doesn't make an American and you obviously don't know WHAT THE FUCK I'M TALKING ABOUT. Another fucking Jane Fonda. Call home asshole 1-800-Al-Queda.

6 typical leftist response and defense of islam. he pulled the old shopworn, christianity and islam are equally responsible for an equal amount of death and misery.... not only is that argument worthless, its pathetic. jesus never gave a green light to kill anyone. ever. no where in the new testement can you find jesus calling on people to kill an unbeleiver or a sinner for god. not so mohamid. the koran is riddled with qoutes and admonitions from mo' to kill. the in this modern era, (the last 30 years) you have maybe, 2 or 3 wakjobs killing abortion doctors. in this same modern era, the muslims are responsible for cutting off heads of innocent people, and murdering many many thousands, 911 being the culmination of thier bloodlust. so im gonna have to conclude that the real dipshit, is trr

7 The Netherlands is close to Britain politically and culturally, and it is important that this country(UK) draws appropriate lessons. Like the Dutch, the British people pride themselves on welcoming newcomers and on attitudes that reflect a global outlook. But Britain should not become prisoner, as the Netherlands has, to a "consensus" that stifles debate. The UK also has a sizeable Muslim minority, but more has been done to inculcate values and make clear that all have a responsibility to participate politically and economically in British society. The Dutch have made some effort to tackle alienation among young Muslims, but not monitored closely enough the activities of an extreme few. Both countries now have much to do. In Britain, at least, the emergence of a responsible Muslim umbrella group to counter the ravings of those preaching hatred has, in recent months, eased tensions. In the Netherlands, communal relations are still too inflamed. Mr Balkenende must move fast to shore up the tolerance for which his country was once famous. It was the dishonesty in not acknowledging that this was under threat which has led to the present conflict.

8 This attack on a writer speaking his mind is more important than idiot bombers. Greatly underplayed. All the civilized world should be in an uproar. The dutch should start mass deportations immediately. ISLAMOFACISTS will make heros of these killers. It will happen again unless the civilized world shows the Muslims this will not be tolerated.
