"The Netherlands to Abandon Multiculturalism"
The Netherlands has apparently woken up.
This is a TOTAL reversal of previous policies.
Unfortunately, this story isn't getting any coverage in the American media.
I guess that would be "politically incorrect".
Let's hope this awakening spreads far and wide...

Soeren Kern has the story at Hudson-ny.org:
"A new integration bill (covering letter and 15-page action plan), which Dutch Interior Minister Piet Hein Donner presented to parliament on June 16, reads: 'The government shares the social dissatisfaction over the multicultural society model and plans to shift priority to the values of the Dutch people. In the new integration system, the values of the Dutch society play a central role. With this change, the government steps away from the model of a multicultural society.'
The letter continues: 'A more obligatory integration is justified because the government also demands that from its own citizens. It is necessary because otherwise the society gradually grows apart and eventually no one feels at home anymore in the Netherlands. The integration will not be tailored to different groups.'
The new integration policy will place more demands on immigrants. For example, immigrants will be required to learn the Dutch language, and the government will take a tougher approach to immigrants to ignore Dutch values or disobey Dutch law.
The government will also stop offering special subsidies for Muslim immigrants because, according to Donner, 'it is not the government's job to integrate immigrants.'"
