Rotterdam Rijnmond TV has little moroccans saying it's good he's dead and that Allah killed him. That will promote multicultural society for sure.

Funny how left wing extremism works. Killing to keep Holland tolerant.

I have no time for any anti-democratic, anti-secular influences. I do not want to compromise with Muslims or anyone else on the equality of men and women, hetero- and homosexuals, the freedom of speech and opinion and other Western values.
As far as I'm concerned, all cultural influences are welcome, as long as they don't threaten in any way the principles of the secular, democratic, constitutional state. The countries that you mention do not form such a threat.

The number two on the list Pim Fortuyn is likely to become the new nr.1. I forgot his name, but he's a rather young black guy. Interesting...

Latest news: there is now a 'riot-like' atmosphere around the 'Binnenhof', the Dutch parliament. There is a large crowd in the immediate vicinity of complex and there's a fire in the parking garage of the building...

An idiotic move by whoever did this. Political assisinations traditionally have the oppposite effect intended. Winston Churchill once said during WWII he wouldn't mind at all being assisinated by a German Spy, for if he was it would only strengthen the British will. Expect Dutch voters to turn out and show that assisination is not an acceptable means of achieving political ends, and Fortyun's party will probably do well in the upcoming elections if he does not win outright. This could be dangerous for Europe as a whole if the right-wing movement is strengthened by a victory in the Netherlands.

Sorry that you all lost one of your leaders regardless of his political views. I was no fan of J.F. Kennedy but I will never forget the day he was shot. It is as if you had the foundation of your nation destroyed. Just about any system of government is better than anarchy and political assasins arrogate to themselves the right to decide the fate of a nation. I am sure that Holland will recover from this but it will never be forgotten.

It all depends on how bad Fortuyn's supporters behave. They are busy wrecking The Hague at the moment.

Number 2 in Fortuyn's party is Varela, 27, born in Cape Verdia.

not yet

right now, the rioters are targetting the other politicians. though, because of the extreme numbers of riot police present there now, it's likely to spread to other parts, possibly immigrant neighbourhoods.

Yes, faded, one 'possible suspect' has been arrested, if you're referring to that. But he has not yet released any kind of statement and doesn't plan on doing so anytime soon, according to the police.

Mark,
Paraphrasing the police: for now there is no reason to assume that there are more people involved, but the investigation is still underway.

Faded,
Read the rest of the thread, this was explained by several others already.

According to Hilversum police, there is one "suspect", a white Dutchman. He had a gun in his possession and was arrested on the premises of the "Omroep". He has so far refused to make a statement.

I see no contradiction in a homosexual being extreme-right. No more than a woman or a working-class person being that. They sacrifice power for one of their identity groups to be able to augment the power of others.
