Right wing messages
The ANR hopes to shore up support by focusing on every single crime allegedly committed in Europe by Arabs and Blacks. Would the ANR have given this story any importance if it was obvious from day one that the killers were Italians or Swedes? No. The implication: Arabs and Blacks are all criminals.
As it turns out, one of the main suspects is Polish. What will the ANR say now? That Poles aren't fit to live in Europe? That multicultarilsm can't work? That Poles should be expelled from Malta? That their religious beliefs aren't compatible with our way of life?
Here's the ANR on 23/4/2006, quoting a foreign website:
Joe Van Holsbeeck, the 17 year old boy who died after being
butchered with a knife by
North African youths in Brussels Central Station last week, was buried today. Muslim immigrants distributed home baked bread during the funeral. Joe was savagely stabbed to death Wednesday a week ago when he refused to hand over his MP3 player
to the North Africans. Immediately after the assassination the police inquired whether Joe had made any “racist remarks” whilst been mugged, but Joe and his family and friends were not racists. On the contrary.
And here's today's Le Soir with an update on the case:
La police polonaise attend des informations de la police belge, pour l'aider à mettre la main sur l'un des agresseurs présumés de Joe Van Holsbeeck, un adolescent tué à Bruxelles le 12 avril, a indiqué le porte-parole de la police.
Nous attendons des informations par les canaux d'Interpol. Dans des cas pareils, nous lançons toujours des recherches, une fois effectué un échange d'informations, a-t-il déclaré.
Les autorités judiciaires belges ont confirmé l'interpellation d'un Polonais mineur, l'un des deux auteurs présumés de l'agression mortelle de Joe Van Holsbeeck, 17 ans, tué pour son baladeur MP3. Le mineur a avoué avoir participé à l'agression et collabore avec la justice, a-t-on indiqué de même source. (D'après AFP)
