http://www.rnw.nl/english/article/dutch-muslims-fear-impact-wilders-vote Dutch Muslims fear impact of Wilders vote Muslims in the Netherlands fear that a good result for Geert Wilders’ Freedom Party (PVV) in next week’s parliamentary elections could fuel suspicions and sour community relations. In the local elections in March, the anti-Islam party scored its first victory in new town Almere, with 21.6 percent of the vote, and came second in the political capital The Hague. These were the only municipalities in which the Freedom Party fielded candidates. The elections took place just weeks after the coalition government collapsed after a row over extending the Dutch military mission in Afghanistan. The result dented the Netherlands\' reputation as a tolerant society, and, with parliamentary elections less than a week away, Muslims are still reeling from the after-effects.
