Re. the religious situation in Holland?

I had hoped to have an insight into this situation if only by virtue of the visit of a dutch politician as one who declared he knows the answer.However, the media was loud on his condemnation and any reference to the heart of his explanations re. the social character of Holland in his time ( now) I must have missed. My question is specifically about the religious character of Holland today and NOTHING else. Does anyone have a reasonable answer?

Also I believe Islam will radically destroy anyone who is not for them, or is for Israel. Born in Holland and love my country.

    Okay I see your other post. (I answered there maybe someone will here. Good question on recent news)

    Here is the event

    Recently a Dutch politician visited Australia. His conferences intended to enlighten us Australians as to why Australia as a Nation should be more aware of Islam and Its stated ambitions. He drew from his own experiences in his native Holland.Numerous people rushed to condemn him and establish him as a Racist in the the public mind. Some news media sources seem not to have caught onto the fact that in criticizing Islam he could not be a Racist since Islam is comprised of people from many nationalities.Why do people not know what it is that they condemn; I really do mean,"Why'
