HILARIOUS, YET ALSO SAD SLOGAN
Just came across this website and it’s slogan is hilarious and sad at the same time:
A sign of the times?
I just hope he didn’t had to do this because some ignorant people would assume a not-so Western sounding Middle Eastern name equals terrorist….that would be truly sad

Hi Björn,
Thanks for the link to my site. Just to fulfill your curiosity, yes, my family is of Middle-Eastern origin, but no one has ever contacted me through my site and accused me of being a terrorist… yet!
Thank goodness! Perhaps the slogan is a sign of the times, but I try to have a little faith in humanity. In that sense, the slogan is intended to conjure more humor than sadness, at least for me.
Greetings from America.

P.S. I have been to the Netherlands a few times and loved it!
Hi Brian,
Good to hear it’s meant to be funny.
I liked it immediately, but then started to wonder if people would actually be so stupid to harass you because of your name. Glad to hear this is not the case.
Thanks for your kinds about The Netherlands.
All the best,
grtz
