Dutch reporter repeatedly raped by Taliban, she says they respected her

Joanie de Rijke. No rational explanation.
Joanie de Rijke. No rational explanation.

This one’s too bizarre for words. Just too damn bizarre for words.

A Dutch journalist named Joanie de Rijke went looking for the Taliban in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, she found them.

We’ll let the Brussels Journal take it from here:

“In November 2008 a Dutch journalist, Joanie de Rijke, was abducted by Taliban fighters in Afghanistan. She was held captive, raped repeatedly, and released after six days for a ransom of 100,000 euros ($137,000). After her ordeal, she acknowledged that her captors ‘did horrible things to me,’ but added in several media interviews ‘They also respected me,’ and emphasized ‘They are not monsters.’”

Bizarrely, de Rijke said this ordeal didn’t make her angry. de Rijke said, “They also respected me.” How did she say they demonstrate this immense respect? Believe it or not, by giving her tea and biscuits between rape sessions.

There’s no explaining this case. Maybe it’s Stockholm Syndrome. Maybe it’s lunacy. Maybe it’s the left’s complete inability to confront evil. Take your choice.

Dutch TV show finds Osama bin Laden “Not Guilty.” IHateTheMedia.com finds the Dutch “Not Rational.”

The Dutch should stick to what they know. Tulips. Windmills. Wooden shoes. Marijuana. Sex shops.

The Dutch are generally pretty rational. What the hell happened here?

The Netherlands public TV network runs a show called “Devil’s Advocate.” On its Wednesday night show, a five-member jury and the studio audience listened to all the evidence and concluded that there wasn’t enough proof to convict bin Laden of being the brains behind the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks. This, of course, is despite the fact that bin Laden has repeatedly, proudly taken credit for the attacks.

The show features famed Dutch defense attorney Gerard Spong defending some of the world’s worst criminals. The silver-tongued Spong convinced the jury that bin Laden’s connection to Sept. 11 was merely “Western propaganda.”

While they were at it, the jury also concluded that there was insufficient evidence to prove bin Laden is the top dog in al-Qaida.

Next week on Devil’s Advocate, the jury will decide that black is white, up is down, and global warming causes global cooling.

French human rights group tries to take Dutch politician to court for speech made in United States

Dutch politician Geert Wilders has been accused of telling the truth
Dutch politician Geert Wilders has been accused of telling the truth
French attorney Yassine Bouzrou has entered a complaint in Paris on behalf of the ”Collective Against Islamophobia.”

Horrors! Bouzrou accuses Dutch politician Geert Wilders of uttering these scandalous words these words during a speech in New York:

“Paris is now surrounded by a ring of Muslim neighborhoods” and “Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without head scarves.”

As MediaWatchWatch.org said, “The idea that a Dutchman can be prosecuted in France for saying something perfectly legal in the United States is simply too absurd to contemplate.”

“If this goes through, the United States should issue speeding tickets to every driver in France.”
