The Dutch from Morocco can’t give berber names to their children according to moroccan authorities. Thus, the Islamic identity is being emphasized.

This week, the moroccan government sent a list of forbidden names to all the embassies and consulates of Kingdom of the Netherlands

Most of Moroccans in the Netherlands are Berbers. Now, they are forced to give a Moroccan Muslim name to their newborns.In this way, Morocco wants to preserve the Moroccan identity of its subjects, as well as that of the Dutch Moroccans.

The Arab child well worth a travel

Morocco’s Minister of Health, Mohamed Cheikh Biadillah, went to the international Arab Child Health conference which opened in Riyadh.

He had to assist to the Arab Children Health Congress. The meeting was organized by the Saudis and the Arab League. The theme was "Arab’s children health, the Ummah’s investment". It’s especially an event that confirms perfectly the barrage of criticism on Mr Biadillah, concerning his absolute indifference towards Anfgou’s tragedy and his policy always based on ethnicization. As you know, the Berbers are the ancient inhabitants of North Africa. But, since the Arab invasion of the region, they are strangers in their own land.
