My point is, Holland is something of a geopolitical flash point right now in terms of the Islamist leanings of many of its citizens. It's a great place to falsify any claims of invincibility. I don't pay close attention to Holland's doings. If something happens there that's bad enough to catch my attention, I'll know Raja Wilhelm spoke too soon. If - and it's a big if - in coming years I read an article about how the Netherlands is setting an example of how to reconcile Islam and the West, I may go so far as to think, "Maybe Raja Wilhelm was on to something."
