The long knives are out.
Demanding fewer numbers of the very people committing a disproportionate number of the crimes in society, is not an unreasonable request. Not unless you’re a boneheaded Lefist who cares more about ideology than about public safety.
Wilders asked supporters of his Partij voor de Vrijheid (Party for Freedom) whether they wanted more, or fewer Moroccans, both in their city and in the country as a whole. His followers responded by chanting: “Fewer, fewer, fewer!”. Wilders concluded: “Then we’ll see to that.”
‘Fewer, fewer, fewer!’: Far-right Dutch politician Geert Wilders creates a storm with anti-Moroccan chant
Thursday 20 March 2014
Geert Wilders, the leader of the fourth largest party in Dutch politics, has caused commotion by leading a gathering of his followers in an anti-Moroccan chant.
The chant took place in the wake of local elections, during an address in the Hague on Wednesday evening. Wilders asked supporters of hisPartij voor de Vrijheid (Party for Freedom) whether they wanted more, or fewer Moroccans, both in their city and in the country as a whole. His followers responded by chanting: “Fewer, fewer, fewer!”. Wilders concluded: “Then we’ll see to that.”
The exchange can be seen around 30 seconds in to the video below. (Be sure to turn the subtitles on).
In the lead-up to this question, Wilders had said: “I’m not really allowed to say this, because you will get accused, and there might even be D66 officers who will start a court case, but the freedom of speech is a great treasure. And we haven’t said anything that is not allowed.”
Wilders should remind the Dutch what the Algerian muslims said in 1961 to the christians and jews who lived there: “choose the suitcase or the gun”.
