Parents in the Netherlands can't stop their children from being indoctrinated with Islam against their wishes.
A new report from
Cultuur onder Vuur
(Culture Under Fire) documents evidence from hundreds of cases where
children in Dutch schools are instructed by an imam on how to pray and
how schools are taking measures to hide these trips from parents.
Church Militant spoke with Hugo Bos, the campaign leader for Culture
Under Fire, who said they started investigating Islamic indoctrination
in Dutch schools after they found one video of a school trip to a
mosque.
"We found it very shocking," he said. "We found proof of 19 cases where children took part in Islamic rites."
Robert Spencer, director of
Jihad Watch,
told Bos that when children pray at these mosque excursions, it is
"exercise in Islamic dawah" — a form of proselytism. From the Muslim
perspective, these children are "purposefully prepared for converting to
Islam."
One of the cases from 2014 involves elementary school children who
were taken to a mosque in Zwolle. That mosque hosted the
hate-preaching Pakistani imam,
Mohammed Anas Noorani Siddiqui. Siddiqui reportedly said, "Non-Muslim Dutch people live like dogs and b*****s."
They found other mosques children had visited had allegations of extremism and anti-Semitism and ties to
the Turkish nationalist movement and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's AK Party.
Last year,
Erdogan called on Muslim Turks to have five children and "educate your children at better schools."
Bos noted a survey found three-quarters of Catholic and Protestant
schools visited a non-Christian place of worship. In 41 percent of those
cases, it was a mosque.
Additionally, parents are often not informed of the field trips and
schools take steps to hide the information from the public. Oftentimes,
Bos found that the school would take down the information from their
website after parents complained or they were contacted by him.
"The government has made goals for education that include respect for
other religions," Bos said. The curriculum includes spiritual
direction, yoga, meditation and visiting a church. In practice, Bos
found little to no efforts being made to take Muslim students to
non-Islamic places of worship.
