Yesterday we had a report that Belgian mosques were becoming recruitment centers for Islamic extremists. Today the Dutch Internal Security Agency reports that the same thing is happening in the Netherlands.

PARIS - A network of Islamist militants has been recruiting young Muslim immigrants at mosques in the Netherlands, urging them to join the “holy war” in places like Afghanistan or Kashmir, the Dutch Internal Security Agency reported this week.

The agency is also investigating reports that groups with links to Al-Qaida have instructed their Dutch Muslim followers that they should join the Dutch army to get military training.

But Sybrand van Hulst, the director of the Dutch Internal Security Agency, said at a news conference that there was no evidence that the recruiters themselves were from Al-Qaida. Rather, he said, they were apparently from the Algerian-based Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat and other groups from the Middle East. …

In recent months, the government has stepped up its surveillance of religious and political groups in schools and mosques, a government official said. Some of the Islamic schools are teaching anti-Western attitudes, the official said. Also, they are reportedly teaching that Muslims should battle non-Muslims until they acknowledge that Allah is the only God.

Did you know that “Islam” means “peace?”

And guess who’s behind the Dutch mosques and Islamic schools that spread this intolerance and extremism?

The disclosures also coincide with government concern about the activities of conservative teachers at Islamic schools. The government says these schools receive funds from foreign Muslim foundations, in particular from Saudi Arabia.
