Will Dutch Jihadis Lose Their Citizenship?

In a recent survey, it has been opined by over 40% of native Dutch people that those Muslims who live in the Netherlands & have gone to Syria for jihad, should lose their Dutch citizenship. This, from Dutch News today:

40% think Syria fighters should be stripped of their Dutch nationality

Muslim youngsters who travel to fight with rebels in Syria against president Assad's regime are seen as heroes by almost 75% of Dutch Muslims, according to a Motivaction poll for television show Altijd Wat.

'In general, Dutch Muslims consider the Syria fighters to be doing what the UN is failing to do, which is battling president Assad's regime,' the show's pre-publicity said.

By contrast, 70% of the native Dutch population say they are not heroes. Almost 40% say they will be potential terrorists when they return home and 43% think they should be stripped of their Dutch nationality, news agency ANP reports.

The show will be broadcast on Tuesday evening.

The Dutch counter terrorism office claims around 100 Dutch youngsters have gone to Syria to fight with the rebels and there are reports three have been killed.

That 40% of Dutch people are absolutely correct in saying that the jihadis will be terrorists when they return to the Netherlands, there is no possibility of letting them back in. Have we woken up to the fact that the Arab Spring is nothing to do with freedom & democracy & everything to do with Islamic supremacism? It seems that 30% of native Dutch people have not, but to quote Allen West, 30% of people are stuck on stupid anyway.

It is, of course, eminently possible to withdraw citizenship from a terrorist, even a native born one, as the British government has demonstrated time & again. Let's hope that the Dutch follows that procedure.
