A truely sad day for all Dutch
Today movie maker, columnist and chain-smoker Theo van Gogh was murdered He was known and feared for his strong critizism and his blunt and harsh statements that he spewed when ever he got the chance. Often shocking his "opponenents" Van Gogh had a very stong opinion about the way muslims-funtamentalists suppress women and how they condem gays. In an ultimate attempt to shut him up, he was brutally excecuted in Amsterdam this morning. He was shot 6 times and then a letter was pinned to his dead body with 2 knives The killer was captured after a shoot-out with the police. He is an immigrant from Marocco and aparently a muslim-extremist. Van Gogh paid the ultimate price for what he believed in the most: the freedom of speech |

Yeah well....my Hisory Prof actually blamed it all ....Hitler and WWII.... on the French.......
He felt that the humiliating terms of Germany's WWI surrender in the treaty of Versailles caused most of Germany's problems in the 20s and early 30s.....war reparations, the disbanding of their army and navy....the ban on expansion....this all plunged Germany into a deep economic depression and humiliated the German people.....Pride is a real motivator. Adolf took the prejudices of the majority and blamed the minority(s) in his rise to power. When he WAS firmly in power he went after the French....when he won, he got the same railway car out of the museum where they signed the WW I treaty and forced the French to do it all over again...payback....except HE was the head BITCH. It's all who has the biggest weenie..... |
