Just read in the news that there are riots with numerous car burnings in a suburb of Amsterdam by moroccan immigrants. One of them attacked police with a knive and they killed him, that started the riot six days ago. Is this race or islam related?

Yeah we have had the same sorts of problems here. Someone steals something or does something else bad. They are usually of aboriginal decent. The police chase them. The Theif/criminal gets themself sued. The police come under investigation. The aboriginal people protest.
There was a big one a while back where the kid was impaled on a fence post trying to escape.

For reasons of political correctness and political pressure (the mayor doesn't want to make the Moroccans angry at his party, most of them vote for him faithfully) those thugs have never been taken care of by police, and grown more bold as time went by.
The killing of a psychopath (with links to the terrorist group that killed Theo van Gogh) just provided the spark that made them go to the next level of open violence, setting fire to cars instead of beating up anyone they could get their hands on.
It's racism instead of religion. These kids are Moroccan supremacists, ganging up on anyone who isn't Moroccan irrespective of religion.
