[De Groene Amsterdammer] Muslims in Christian Parties

De Groene Amsterdammer address the subject Moslims in christelijke partijen:

De opkomst van de religieus-democraten

Veel moslims in Europa zijn actief in christen-democratische partijen. Samen lijken ze op te trekken tegen een groeiend secularisme. Een trend?

Unfortunately the complete article is only available to subscribers. Fortunated the Islam in Europe blog has supplied a translation.

The article makes me curious about Dutch Jews. Where do they stand vis-a-vis the Humanist Democratic Center? The name change is significant to anyone that remembers the pre-WW2 E. European practice of using Christian in the titles of parties and social clubs as a euphemism for anti-Semitic.

In the USA, Arab and Pakistani Americans used to gravitate toward the Republican Party before 9/11 because the two groups thought they shared Republican fiscal and social conservative beliefs. In contrast, African American Muslims have tended to be Democratic. Nowadays all American Muslims perceive the Republican party as the Islamophobic party.

If American Muslims are uncomfortable with the predominance of Jewish Zionists in the Democratic party, they have yet to say very much about it.

The Volkskrant has discussed the efforts of wealthy right-wing American Jews to influence Dutch (and European) politics:

1. Wilders gaat steeds een stapje verder and
2. Giften voor proces-Wilders uit VS gaan naar partijkas.
   

Are hyperwealthy right-wing Zionist American Jews skipping the social conservative parties of the Netherlands directly to support the Islamophobes, or is a more subtle process of manipulation taking place?
