Question

This country’s government forced a terrorist nicknamed “Little Thumb” to release 100 captive schoolchildren by sending them food laced with laxatives. Several terrorist acts, including that school seizure and a train hijacking, were perpetrated in this European country in the late 1970s by supporters of a proposed state called “RMS.” The “Bersiap” period drove immigration to this country, where the term (*) “pillarization” (10[1])was coined to describe (-5[1])institutionalized social cleavages. The anti-immigrant “Fortuynist” (for-TINE-ist) ideology arose in this country. Right-wing (10[1]-5[1])politicians in this country capitalized on the actions of Muhammad Bouyeri, who murdered the director of Submission. For 10 (10[1])points, descendants of many Indonesian immigrants live in what European country, (10[1])where Theo van Gogh was killed? (10[1])■END■
