I must write a separate post about this.Maya Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10877457709995369246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25206081.post-64548361447141839372016-04-12T19:44:56.083-07:002016-04-12T19:44:56.083-07:00Unfortunately, the Dutch of today are not heirs to...Unfortunately, the Dutch of today are not heirs to the Dutch tradition of the Enlightenment and freedom.
