Down with racism. Long live miscegenation! -

Perhaps you should read it before essentially accusing the Dutch of being a bunch of antisemites? Especially the section How was the situation in the Netherlands different from that in Belgium and France?
Though the fact the Dutch Jews were more integrated does make their behaviour more offensive.
The great majority of the Jewish population in the Netherlands, approximately 85%, had lived in the country for centuries, and before 1940 it was largely integrated. In Belgium and France, a large percentage of the Jews were immigrants from Eastern Europe and refugees who had come from Germany in the 1930s. In Belgium this even accounted for more than 90% of the Jewish population, while in France this was about 50%.
I know France, Belgium, Germany, Netherlands etc were all less than pleasant to their countrymen at the insistence of the Author of Mein Kampf.
Those in the UK whilst far from perfect behaved much better than they did, people in glass houses should avoid throwing accusations of racism about.
In our occupied countries the NAZI's weren't assisted by the locals.

So while the French & Belgians attacked recent immigrants the Dutch rounded up their great grandparents? That makes it better how?
