In 2018 registered CIDI 135 antisemitic incidents (Online-Semitism TURNED Unless it). This is the highest number since 2014. With respect to 2017 increased anti-Semitism increased by semi 19 percent.
This report provides insight into the discrimination incidents and notifications in the Netherlands 2018 by an official body registered. Reports on anti-discrimination (ADV’s), police registered discrimination incidents, requests for an opinion to the Board for the Protection of Human Rights (after this: College) and data from the Internet hotline discrimination MiND
(after this: MiND) are presented side by side. This therefore offer a glimpse into a part of the wider phenomenon of discrimination in Netherlands.
The report Criminal Discrimination Revealed 2018 reported on in 2018 flowed and completed cases specific discriminatory offenses with the Public Prosecutor (ABOUT). Specific discrimination facts are the facts that are registered and where a decision is taken on the basis of one of the discriminatory articles of the Penal Code (Sr): article 137c, 137d, 137and, 137f, 137g of 429quater Sr.
The right-wing extremist scene in the Netherlands in recent years, focusing mainly on Islam. The extreme right has a resurgence in Netherlands. Right-wing extremism in the defense organization can undermine the internal security of the armed forces. It's alright
for example internal unrest as a result of discrimination against soldiers, thereby may be displayed on both the hierarchical structure within a unit as the mutual cooperation under pressure.
It is therefore important individuals or groups within the defense organization, who espouse extremist ideology or (active) support to extremist parties and organizations, in a timely manner to recognize. A right-wing extremist violence threat
direction Defense is not yet recognized.
Defense in 2018 set three studies following signals racist references to Nazi Germany. The AIVD report on right-wing extremism reports include a polarizing discourse is passed on Islam in right-wing extremist circles. For this is no evidence in Defense. Nor DISS currently has signs that exists within the armed forces of right-wing extremist networks.
For some right-wing extremists immigration is still equal to Islamization. Immigration and Islamization hand in their eyes a danger to the Dutch identity. It feels for those right-wing extremists like the government does the Dutch culture in the sale by admitting refugees from Muslim countries. For example, a visible representative of this ideology is the group Identitair Resistance. The anti-Islam views has many supporters in extremism, with increasingly less exclusive men as before. The anti-government sentiment that draws on prevailing sympathizers within this group who have no history of right-wing extremism. They also cherish mistrust (European) politics and sometimes against science and (pulp-)media.The goes without saying that the AIVD criticism of Islam, immigration or the government is not in itself regarded as a form of right-wing extremism. This falls within the freedom of expression. We assess such statements as extremist as it turn into hate speech, bedreigingen.Een and intimidation of the extremists even advocates for preventing mixing of races. This ethno-nationalist ideology will respond within the circle of supporters of alt-right ideology, as the 'Research Association' Erkenbrand. To have it - in their own words - nothing against the existence of several races, but Netherlands for the Dutch. There are also extremists who believe in white supremacy. These people take an anti-democratic position and pursue a racist society in which people are not considered equal. This is contrary to the democratic legal.

Growth of right-wing violence appears to be continuing Although the extreme right and left-terrorist violence figures in Europe 2018 have not been unambiguous, the NCTV get the last three years of partner organizations clear signs that both the severity and extent of right-wing violence in several countries in Western Europe and North America is increasing. This is reflected in a study by the Institute for Economics & Peace. The number of deaths due to violence by right-wing groups and individuals grew between 2014 en 2017 van 4 to 17. The increased popularity of right-wing populism and right-wing extremism in Europe and the United States is reflected in the increasing threat posed by right-wing terrorists and the effective exercise of the right-terrorist violence. Including in France, Duitsland, the United Kingdom and Spain, small groups and singletons were arrested who were making preparations for attacks. Targets include refugees, Muslims, leftist opponents, prominent politicians and government institutions. The threat of violence has shifted since the seventies large right-terrorist groups to small cells and singletons. Three right-wing terrorist attacks in the United States in October and apparently corresponding perpetrator profiles of the three white men have a heated discussion that let arisen about whether the perpetrators are moved by the speech of President Donald Trump. Trump discourse resonates even in right-wing circles in Europe. This resonance at the attackers (nationalism, xenophobia, moslimhaat, antisemitism and belief in conspiracy theories) feeds perceptions of politicians, scientists and (radical) leftist opponents Trump is partly responsible for these attacks. Analysis of the statistics of the FBI (and other organizations) on hate crimes in the US, however, show that the increase in the number of hate crimes in the US since before his victory Trumps.

Left-wing and far-left organizations that fight (putative) racism and fascism stirring more active. Where they chose several years ago to ignore demonstrations by extreme right groups in particular, they organize a half years since a counter-demonstration in every far-right demonstration of some size. That leads to a hardening of the confrontations. Links are operated much more violence against the right and sought confrontation with the right also deliberately. Due to increased self-confidence to go to the extreme right also more confrontational. Yet left-wing extremists do not seem to have a clear strategy to serve the new manifestations of the extreme right of reply. It is conceivable that the left-wing extremists will make more of themselves heard in the near future against the revival of right-wing extremists.

Right-wing extremism
The right-wing extremist movement in Europe has two faces. On the one hand, a movement characterized by fragmentation, weak leadership, personal animosity, and the lack of a consistent organization. On the other hand, professional practice small cells and loners / lone actors increasingly serious violence in several European countries. In the past three years, politicians in several European countries at least eight times been the target of person targeted violence with terrorist intent or purpose foiled plans. The cases of the past three years shows that the threat of personal violence directed against national politicians from both right-wing extremists (4 of the 8), Left-wing extremists (2 of the 8) as jihadists (2 of the 8) and that the violence is committed or contemplated by both loners and groups. In Europe, Dutch right-wing extremists no leadership. Recent studies of the AIVD and NCTV the right-wing extremist scene in the Netherlands and Europe show an image of a movement with many on- and offline activity outside the known organizations, in which stand the very fluid dressings. The danger posed by the lone actor in the implementation of the right-terrorist violence in the Netherlands is now more important than the threat of violence by larger groups of persons. Thus a man guilty of preparing and promoting committing murder with a terrorist intent and illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition with the same objective. In addition, the man turned his sights on Muslim and leftist leaders. He was sentenced to 36 months. (See supplement KafkaL /https://kafka.nl/extreemrechtse-terreurverdachte-lid-anti-terreur-brigade/ For an article about this man) AIVD and NCTV warn of the impact of the polarized public debate on 'lone actors'. The revival of the extreme right in the Netherlands is still not so much in committing violence, but in an increasingly aggressive and opruiender internet discourse. The new self-confidence also reflected in openly seeking the confrontation right with leftist opponents in cities with active leftist movement as Amsterdam and Nijmegen. Small right-wing extremist groups are also particularly active in intimidating and radical actions that they create unrest within Muslim communities. The attraction of the alt-right movement since the emergence of Donald Trump clearly visible in several European countries including the Netherlands and Belgium. The Dutch alt-right scene online is very focused on overseas and particularly in the United States.
Polarization around Zwarte Piet is widened
Black Piet discussion running for years, but since 2014 brighter tone that more and more identity issues become linked with the discussion. The fact that opponents of Zwarte Piet consider the kids as racist ensures acclaim but also resistance within society. As yet there are no concrete indications that there is an increasing threat of violence, but it is conceivable. The government is a complicating factor that the threat of violence not have to go from known groups, but also organize angry citizens on their own initiative outside legal action. The wide living polarization in addition, entails the risk that can escalate an incident with possible legal actions at the outside. Another risk of polarization is that for some reduces confidence in the government. A broad-based social compromise on how Sinterklaas is celebrated is not in sight, so the debate still will continue to bring some years security issues with it.
What does the extreme right there today from, How do the different groups relate to each other and which ideologies hide behind? Where members meet each other, how they interact and what strategies they use to disseminate their ideas and ideals? What nuances and caveats here are placing?

Before you is the update of the 'fact sheet far right Dutch municipalities' in October 2018, in which a current picture sketched by the extreme right-wing organizations active in the Netherlands. This fact sheet should provide insight into the extent, Geographically, meaning and involvement in violent incidents of various extreme right-wing organizations in Netherlands.
The composition of the list of organizations and presented facts about these organizations gathered under the Project Monitor Racism, Anti-Semitism and extreme right violence in the Netherlands.
The NCTV published over the right-wing extremist violence threat since the first appearance of the Terrorist Threat Assessment Netherlands (DTN) in 2005. It is widely considered
threat to all developments which could potentially lead to terrorist violence. The history, but also the actuality, showed that terrorist violence is not confined to
jihadisme. In the National Counterterrorism Strategy 2016-2020 states that right-wing extremism, the attention of the NCTV.1 The right-wing extremism nevertheless became the
imaging is often obscured by the Jihadism. This is largely understandable because the jihadist threat of violence, in any case in the Netherlands, the last decade
determining factor has been the threat of terrorism.
The NCTV also published for this reason in recent years, several studies phenomenon in terms of Jihadism (For example, "Minors at ISIS 'from 2017). New domestic and international events and developments in the field of right-wing extremism and right-terrorism cause the phenomenon has gained in recent years of relevance to the threat.
Over several decades, the extreme right in the Netherlands was characterized by a neo-Nazi, fascist and anti-Semitic ideas. In recent years this has changed; Neo-Nazis are only a marginal group and other forms of right-wing extremism are previously replaced.
Anti-Islamic ideas to the fore main ideological motive which increasingly has emerged in recent years for groups and individuals within the extreme right movement, the anti-Islam views. This development began from 2014 to assume definite shapes as a consequence of two events:
• the declaration of the caliphate by ISIS and the array of jihadist terrorist attacks in Western Europe that followed;
• The flow of refugees in the course of 2015 initiated came to Europe and Netherlands.
Already existing groups in the right-wing extremist scene in Netherlands, as the Dutch People's Union (NVU), handles the rise of ISIS and the refugees to present themselves and to reach a wider audience. They did organize this is by anti-ISIS demonstrations or protests by asylum seekers. Simultaneously, a variety of new initiatives arose. Examples include Protesters against Municipalities (DTG) en United We Stand Holland (UWS). The AIVD also saw an increase
right extremist statements on the Internet against Muslims and asylum seekers.
Then in 2016 the influx of migrants stagnated, disappeared many of the above initiatives weather. Nevertheless, the anti-Islam ideology remained dominant. It is thereby made little distinction between anti-Islam- Anti-migratieretoriek. Migrants are Muslims, so the reasoning seems.
The people who are attracted to have the anti-Islam rhetoric largely no history of right-wing extremism. Traditional right-wing themes as antisemitism and Hitler Glorification enter it so little group. If however there is here, is sometimes opted not to carry out this opportunistic reasons.

Dutch far-right groups are particularly active in intimidating and radical actions, but there are no indications that they would like to operate violent. The focus remains on actions against the alleged Islamization of the Netherlands, the arrival of asylum seekers and the alleged loss of Dutch identity. Right to Resistance (Tear), an offshoot of Pegida, A new group with members over the past period was responsible for a number of intimidating protests. Especially putting up a decapitated doll and threatening letter at a mosque in North Amsterdam in January 2018, which protested against the arrival of a "mega mosque", attracted a lot of political and media attention. The announcement Pegida to pork during Ramadan at several mosques barbecue, also led to much media attention. It is also striking that some extreme right of self-confidence seem to win and now dare to demonstrate in the political 'left' famed cities such as Amsterdam and Nijmegen. This increases the risk of confrontation with leftist violence against demonstrators. In general has long been estimated that severe wing extremist violence is primarily conceivable from rapidly radicalized groups or loners. The man who was arrested in August in Schiedam, after he had uttered in reaction to the death of a Hague PVV councilor a threat to social media, is an example of the latter possible,.
It could be a quiz: what Trump, alt-right, Alternative for Germany, het Front National, Thierry Baudet and the N-VA in common? They everywhere for a shift to the right care? naturally. They were a response to neoliberal globalization that captures? Certainly. They "tell it like it is'? Likewise. But according Ico Maly there is an important agreement which many see overlook: all those people, parties and groups share the struggle against equality, freedom and universal human rights. Against the values of the enlightenment. A complex interplay of social, political, economic, ecological and digital evolution accelerated their advance. The cross-border Internet culture caused a tree. about populism, ideology, Pepethe-frog versions of Trump and Baudet, Theo Francken as a meme in imperial suit, Breitbart en Gramsci.
The far-right threat of violence remains relatively limited in Netherlands. Unlike in neighboring countries in Europe and especially Germany, There are no indications of legal structures or terrorist groups in Netherlands. Potentially serious wing extremist violence is primarily conceivable from the corner of loners or quickly radicalized groups. Emphatic exception to stagnant growth, the racist group Erkenbrand. This group is attracting more interested, What is also evident from the presence of more than two hundred people at the annual convention. Because of the anti-democratic ideology in Erkenbrand assumes this group
a danger for the democratic legal. In various parts of Erkenbrand life ideas of an impending race war (as with more radical groups). Although the focus of the organization in keeping radical readings, can be carried out further radicalization. The alt right movement and Erkenbrand as Dutch exponent, Semitism in far-right circles back again (never completely) gone.
The views on Islam and immigration have been for some years the main ideological motives for the right-wing extremist scene in Netherlands. More recently, thereby creating a non-public sentiment.
Anti-Semitism is a persistent evil that has resulted in the recent history catastrophic consequences. And although overt anti-Semitism in the Netherlands since the end of World War II is generally regarded as unacceptable, keep anti-Semitism regularly resurface. This requires permanent vigilance and therefore CIDI been publishing 34 Monitor the year anti-Semitic incidents in the Netherlands.
In 2017 CIDI held its first anti-Semitic statements on the Internet and recorded separately in the political domain. The role of the internet and social media in information and awareness-raising is huge. That unfortunately leads to be widespread Holocaust denial and all kinds of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, which can translate into increased verbal and physical attacks on Jews. CIDI works closely with the Hotline set up by the government Internet Discrimination (MiND) and regularly report themselves against people or websites that are guilty of anti-Semitism.
The observation that the century has been a major break in the Dutch political culture is now regarded as the Death Eaters of the public debate. A country that nurtured an image as a beacon of tolerance and progressivism developed in short time at the European forefront of the political resurgence of nationalism and anti-immigrant sentiment.
The meteoric rise and dramatic assassination of Pim Fortuyn 2002 led to a stunning electoral victory of his party, de Lijst Pim Fortuyn (LPF). Out of nowhere it became the second party in the country, Seventeen percent of the vote, in what has generally come to be known as the Fortuyn revolt. Since then, his identity, immigration and law and order, the dominant themes of the public debate. It was the start of the Dutch culture wars, a battleground in which conservative advocates of stricter immigration- integration and crossed swords with prudent progressives.
The question in this book is how central understood this shift can
are defined in ideology.
Two-thirds of younger people in liberal democracies such as the US, Britain and the Netherlands believe that it is not essential to live in a democracy. About the same percentage of millennials (those born since the early 1980s) would not regard a military takeover as illegitimate per se, if the government was deemed incompetent or failing, according to a study by the political scientists Yascha Mounk and Roberto Stefan Foa. Older age cohorts are more supportive of democratic principles, but their support has been waning over the last decade as well.
This sixth report Semitism, racism and right-wing extremist violence in Netherlands, reports on these facts in the year 2016, and developments with respect to previous years. The report has been made on behalf of Anne Frank. The Anne Frank Foundation manages the Anne Frank house and brings her life story to the attention to reflect on the dangers of anti-Semitism, racisme en discriminatie en het belang van vrijheid, equal rights and democracy. The Foundation does not give in, inter alia aim to provide information and educational activities about discrimination and human rights, to promote the proper functioning
an open, pluriforme, democratische samenleving. A major goal of this report is to provide input for the educational activities of the Anne Frank Foundation. Furthermore, it serves as periodic reporting to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OVSE) en de Europese Unie (EU).
Regularly found in Netherlands vandalism and graffiti in place / mosques and Islamic schools. There are also examples of mosques being harassed with threatening letters, as in June AsSoennah mosque in The Hague. The most visible manifestation of the extreme right in the Netherlands is determined by groups like Pegida, Identitair Resistance (ID-Resistance) and increasingly Erkenbrand. The above-mentioned groups are characterized by extreme right ideas, but use no violent methods to achieve their goals.
Worrisome is the increased rate of radical Pegida during the last year. This is reflected by the widening of the focus on acting against Islam, Muslims seekers and, in general,. The group operates in the Netherlands now with right-extremist organizations from abroad like HoGeSa (Hooligans against Salafism) from Germany.
ID opposition chose this DTNperiode for temporarily occupying Muslim properties, as the Salafist Cornelius Haga school and a mosque under construction in Venlo. ID Resistance remains, unlike other identitary groups in Europe, limited in size. Also concerns remain about Erkenbrand. The group works online and offline to further expand the number of followers of their racialist doctrine.
This is the second edition of the national report on discrimination, where the police figures and anti-discrimination (ADV’s) are presented together. In addition, the analysis also details of other organizations that record messages discrimination, such as hotlines for Discrimination on the Internet (MDI MiND) and the Board for the Protection of Human Rights which receives requests for an opinion on situations that are perceived as discrimination. Data from the Center for Information and Documentation on Israel (CIDI), The national hotline 'Report Islamophobia' and Transgender Network Netherlands (TNN) are included in the report.
This report describes cases of discrimination in 2016 played with the Public Prosecution (ABOUT). The discrimination approach is essential and a priority of the OM. Discrimination can not be accepted in a democratic society where everyone is equal and human rights are respected. Criminal law is one of the ways to tackle discrimination: with prosecution a strong signal can be given to the society that discrimination is not tolerated. The visualization of discrimination cases provides insight into the approach to discrimination by the Public.
