Members of Dutch Right-Wing Party Resign Over Antisemitic
Article
By R. Hoffner
Several prominent members of an extreme right nationalist
faction in Holland called the New Right Party resigned in
protest over the publication of an antisemitic article by one
of the party leaders. They say the article, which claims "the
Jews have too much influence in Holland," represents an
instance of blatant, old-fashioned antisemitism. Commentators
note the extreme right's agenda in Holland is based on
opposition to constant, large-scale immigration of Muslims,
and as such common interests are even developing between
Western Europe's right-wing parties and Jewish
communities.
