Dutch government advises military not to dress in uniform
Just when you thought the West could not be more craven in the face of threats from Islamist terrorists, there's news that the Dutch ministry of defense advised its soldiers not to wear their uniforms in public.That's all that scared them? Mere tweets on social media? They really are proving a letdown to their own troops, much like in Britain.
“We advised military personnel not to travel in uniform on public transport,” Marloes Visser, the defense ministry spokeswoman, told AFP.
And what led to the issuing of this sage advice from the Netherlands' defense ministry? A series of threatening tweets from the Dutch jihadist known as Muhajiri Shaam, a member of the Islamist terrorist group Jahbat-al Nusra. Al-Nusra is an al-Qaeda affiliate.
