Mojahed Bosify: Sixty percent of the Muslims in the Netherlands live off social security.
Interviewer: They are unemployed...
Mojahed Bosify: Many of them consider this to be the jizya poll tax, on the basis of official fatwas.
Interviewer: They consider social security to be the jizya?
Mojahed Bosify: When they go to the ATM or the bank teller, and say: "Convert to Islam or pay the jizya."
. . .
Interviewer: And the teller has no idea...
Mojahed Bosify: No, he just says: "Here is your money," and that's the end of it. Today, fewer people behave this way, but some still do.Libyan Writer Mojahed Busify: Some European Muslims Collect Social Welfare, Claiming It Is Jizya
