A long ago someone related to the royal house of Orange & Nassau put the political-religious cauldron to boil because of some squabbles. Since then the war between protestants and catholics grew and involved also Spain, England, Scotland and Ireland. Queen Beatrix never said anything about that, and couldnt anyways, cause kings and queens of any country are not allowed to discuss political questions. However, during her visit to Abu Dhabi and Oman, she respected the local habits: she wore a long black cloak over her clothes and a veil on top of her (mandatory) royal hat. Queen Elizabeth of England had done the same thing, but nobody claimed she was "legalizing the women's oppression". In Holland, however, Geert Wilders who mixes libertarian ideas with acid critics to Muslim religion, decided to make a song and dance about it. Angry, the queen said that Wilders' reprehension was "pure rubbish". However, Wilders has not the monopoly of nonsense: reviewers of the left (the left, mind you!) like to attack him because he is a mestizo... a crossbred, grandson of a jewish lady from Indonesia, formerly a Dutch colony. Go figure.
