    How a convicted terrorist got cancelled

    Why was convicted terrorist-turned-radicalization-expert Soumaya Sahla expelled from her political party? Did she really “steal” 85,000 euros from her mentor, former VVD party leader Frits Bolkestein? This scandal reveals a deeper issue in the Netherlands—a shift from the "multicultural debate" of the 1990s and 2000s, when we discussed how immigrants should be integrated into Dutch society, to today, when we discuss how to keep them out.
