In his book While Europe Slept, Bruce Bawer reports that Muslim leaders in Norway tell their people that "Islamic law gives them the right to abuse the infidels' system as much as possible -- the right, in Kheir Sajer's words, to 'cheat and lie to the countries that harbor them.' They are told to view the benefits they receive as jizya -- the tributes that the infidel natives of Muslim-occupied countries are obliged to pay to Muslims in order to preserve their lives." As commanded by the Qur'an (9:29).. That's Norway, and this is the Netherlands, but it is unlikely that the situation in the Netherlands is significantly different. "Immigrant families suspected of state benefit fraud," from Radio Netherlands, March 13 (thanks to Religion of Peace):
The Dutch social benefits authority SVB is tightening controls on Dutch-Moroccan and Dutch-Turkish families with children who live on their own in their country of origin.
Families of children aged between 12 and 17 in the Netherlands can claim nearly 280 euros a quarter in child benefit. If the child lives independently in another country, the parents may still be entitled to claim benefit. And providing their child is living abroad specifically to study and does not have earnings above a given threshold, the parents can claim double the amount of benefit to make up for their extra maintenance expenses. The regulations apply to EU countries, and also other countries that have signed a cooperation agreement with the Netherlands, which include Morocco and Turkey.
Random checks have shown that the claims of 54 percent of Moroccan families with children abroad were suspect, as were those of 31 percent of Turkish families. An SVB spokesperson told press agency Novum that the fraud includes families claiming a child lives independently in Turkey or Morocco, when in fact they live with family. SVB will now intensify its checks on families claiming benefit for children studying in Turkey or Morocco.
