"The Dutch and the French seem unable to shake loose their hatred of Jews and Muslims long enough to allow them a place at the political table. And anyone - like Ayaan Hirsi Ali - who's brave enough to point out their flaws is thrown to the lions."
I don't agree with the Dutch people that have made the previous comments, but I don't think you can state that ALL Dutch are behind in the enlightenment regarding race/ethnicity/religion. Since we became independant of Spain, The Netherlands have always been a place where freedom of religion has been guaranteed for all. There is no general hatred of Jews and Muslims at all here
