Arnoud van Doorn, who until December 2011 was vice-chairman of the PVV group on The Hague’s city council, announced his “new start” on Twitter.

He also posted a tweet in Arabic declaring that “there is no god but Allah and Mohammed is his prophet,” in accordance with one of the five pillars of Islam.

The 46-year-old (pictured, above, with Dutch Iranian politician Ehsan Jami in 2010) has continued on the council as an independent candidate since splitting from Wilders’s party.

Initially Van Doorn was reluctant to discuss his reasons for converting. But in a later interview with Al-Jazeera, he explained that his interest in the religion had gradually deepened after he began visiting a mosque in his home city out of curiosity.

He said: “I have heard many negative stories about the Islam, but I am not a person who follows opinions of others without doing my own research and forming my own opinion.

BWAHAHAHA!

I might not be a fan of religion, but if following Islam is what makes him happy, and is what he needs at this moment in his life then good for him. Unfortunately with the way Muslims are viewed in America, I don't see him managing to retain his position much longer.

Well, I suppose it's a good thing he's in the Netherlands.

Then again, most Europeans aren't exactly Islamophiles, so it could still be a thing.

I doubt any of that included reading the shitty parts of the Koran, but whatever, this story was good for a laugh.
