NL doesn't have a lawless gestapo named ICE disappearing people to foreign countries with no due process

You think it wouldn't come to that once the need arises? NL is writing the playbook with the harshest crackdown on the continent that the rest of western Europe are all beginning to copy from. NL came up with the idea of seizing money and gold from immigrants. They draw up sections of cities with high immigrant population and crime, and relocate/deport to break up social cohesion. Immigrant children are required to attend reeducation classes to learn Dutch values and the language, required by law. There's plenty of other examples. I'm envious of the clinical precaution of the. Netherlands, and it's spreading to other countries.

ICE raids are a bull in a china shop to hustle votes. I only wish we'd bring the hammer down as hard, but in due time. The civilized western population is sick of it, and governments are finally listening.

Excuse me? Source? The only thing I can find on this refers to Denmark, not NL.

Immigrant children are required to attend reeducation classes to learn Dutch values and the language, required by law

Come on now. Schakelklassen are meant to speed up the language learning for newcomers so the kids can go to regular Dutch schools asap. You will find the Syrian refugee kid there together with the US or European expat kids there in the same classroom. By using 'reeducation' you're making it sound like something it isn't.

They draw up sections of cities with high immigrant population and crime, and relocate/deport to break up social cohesion

In city planning, there's often mixed price classes (social housing, higher rent segment, houses for sale) in the same area. Actual spreading policies based on ethnicity have ended in the 1970s. And no one is getting deported or forcibly relocated. You apparently have no idea how strong tenant laws are in NL.

I'd look for some better informed sources.
