Netherlands Joins Long List of Nations Abandoning Failed Concept of Multiculturalism

Netherlands Abandons Multiculturalism



I have written about the dangers of multiculturalism. When ethnic, religious or immigrant groups do not assimilate into a host nation's society bad things happen. Those countries that try to accommodate multiculturalism end up creating a "state within a state". This multiculturalist state at some point begins to flex is political muscle and demands rights not conferred upon native born or naturalized citizens.



Some even demand the host society pay for their presence in order to placate them. In the United States we have illegal aliens demanding citizenship, access to free education, and medical care not offered to native born or naturalized citizens.

Soeren Kern in Hudson New York reports, "The Dutch government says it will abandon the long-standing model of multiculturalism that has encouraged Muslim immigrants to create a parallel society within the Netherlands."



According to Soeren, "A new integration bill (covering letter and 15-page action plan), which Dutch Interior Minister Piet Hein Donner presented to parliament on June 16, [2011] reads: 'The government shares the social dissatisfaction over the multicultural society model and plans to shift priority to the values of the Dutch people. In the new integration system, the values of the Dutch society play a central role. With this change, the government steps away from the model of a multicultural society'."
