I guess the Dutch are finally getting their backs up. Three Imams Ordered to Leave Holland LGF littlegreenfootballs.com Holland’s Immigration Minister has ordered three Islamic preachers (imams) to leave the Netherlands. (Hat tip: Ethel.) AMSTERDAM — Immigration and Integration Minister Rita Verdonk has ordered three imams accused of being a threat to public order and national security to get out of the Netherlands. The trio have been accused of preaching a militant anti-western message at Al Fourkaan mosque in Eindhoven and allowing young people to be recruited for Jihad. They will be expelled if they do not leave the country voluntarily, Verdonk has vowed. She has given them a month in which they can challenge her order but they cannot stay in the Netherlands pending the outcome of any appeal. Lawyer Marq Wijngaarden is representing the three imams says he will go to court to block the minister’s order. He did not want to comment further as he has not yet read the full text of Verdonk’s decision. The Dutch intelligence service AIVD indicated that the imams “contribute to the radicalisation of Muslims in the Netherlands”, the Justice Ministry said earlier this year. The ministry claimed the imams tried to recruit, or tolerated the recruiting, of Muslims for Jihad, or holy war. They are also accused of using their sermons to urge Muslims to “isolate” themselves from the rest of Dutch society.
