As reader Shy Guy suggests, place your bets on who is behind this one. We all know that Muslims have a lot of grievances against the Dutch (heck, they have a lot of grievances everywhere about everything, but especially in places like the Netherlands, where they've taken a lot of control and have reached a critical mass of sorts). We know that in Holland, they've already assassinated Theo Van Gogh and threatened Geert Wilders and Ayaan Hirsi Ali.
So who is behind this attempt by a car to crash into the Dutch Royal Family?
Hmmm . . .
At least two people have been killed and 12 injured in a serious incident during the royal family's visit to Apeldoorn to celebrate Queen's Day.
TV pictures show a heavily-damaged black car driving through the barriers erected to keep the crowd under control, close to the open bus carrying queen Beatrix and the rest of her family.The car hit several people and ploughed into a fenced-off obelisk.
Family members on board the open bus witnessed the incident.
The driver of the car was cut out and taken to an ambulance on a stretcher. One eyewitness told the Telegraaf someone had fallen out of the car shortly before it hit the pillar. Another said the car appeared to be attempting to drive at the bus.
The Telegraaf reports that the royal procession was running late by 20 minutes but that the driver appeared to have followed the royal bus exactly.
The rest of the celebrations in Apeldoorn have been cancelled and the royal family will not appear again in public, Nos tv reports.
Nos tv said it is difficult to find out more about the incident because the use of mobile phones has been banned.
Not sure why cell phones were banned there. Perhaps because they could be used as bombs.
This certainly appears deliberate and has echoes of the people who drove into the Glasgow airport a couple of years ago. And you know who they were. Doctors "of Peace."

ReplyDeleteThe driver was casually dressed, no beard, very short hair, appeared "white" (though we do remember Islam is not a race, even if others don't) and, as seems to be usual, they haven't release a name even though he has been charged.
ReplyDeletesuspect named "K.R. Tates" in google translated Dutch article from Elsevier:
ReplyDeleteA 38-year-old suspect broke in Queens by a deposition along the route where the royal family to visit. Result is a battlefield, with four killed and thirteen injured. A summary of the facts.
It quickly became thought of an attack, but evidence was lacking. Until the Public Ministry said enough reason that the man wanted to commit an attack on the Royal House. It would be KR Tates, a 'nice man' who was recently dismissed as securer. Several media said that a "crazy dad" is that children are not allowed to see. Fathers often take foolish actions, but they have never gone so far as if this attack.
To 11.50 hours the suspect driving a black Suzuki Swift with a high speed deposition around. The open box with the royal family at that time passes by the monument The Needle.
The driver creates in his journey many people who are ejected by air and on the ground behind. Photographers and camera shy people have a policeman on a bicycle, the oncoming car just dodge.
Pierces the car in a dranghek that blocking the monument. The driver is seriously injured, but a first contact with the police in the wreck of the car, the public prosecutor that the man carried out a deliberate action.
15.50 am The authorities announced that four people are deceased. There are thirteen wounded, of whom five serious.Among the seriously injured is the suspect, who will undergo surgery Thursday, and a member of the military. Among the wounded was a policeman light.The injured are cared for in six hospitals in the region.
The suspect is arrested and transported to the hospital. The man is no known police / justice and there is also little known about problems with his mental health.
Justice suspects the man, KR Tates, including an attempt to commit an attack on members of the Royal House.The suspect is in for a 'native' Dutch. It is not clear whether he acted alone.
The police investigation is meanwhile on the place of evil and there is a search carried out at the suspect home in Huissen. As far as we know the suspect had no weapon or explosives with him.
The festivities in Apeldoorn were discontinued, as in many places in the rest of the country.
Is this a sign of things to come?
