'It would be an utter calamity if his ideas were to be embraced'

Geert Wilders has called the Koran a "Fascist book," The Prophet Muhammad "the devil" and ranted against halal meat at grocery stores. He also wants Article 1 of the Dutch constitution changed, with the clause guaranteeing equality under the law to be replaced by a statement about the cultural dominance of the Christian, Jewish and humanist traditions. Yet according to Daniel Pipes, Mr. Wilders is a moderate because he supports Israel. Well thank you for pointing that out, Mr Pipes– many people are under the mistaken assumption that he is nothing more than a garden-variety bigot.

    I support Mr. Wilders statements concerning Islam and his right to express those. Though some may find the truth offensive to them…truth is what it is and should be exposed as that.

    450.000 Christians in Iran in 1974

    What goes around comes around
    You could not write your statement in Iran
    Be glad you are in Canada and please don’t misuse your freedom here

    All I have to say is that any who oppose Mr. Wilders and are not Islamic have not seen the conditions he describes in France, England, and apparently other countries. I am glad I will not be here for the end but I fear for my children and grandchildren.

    This article is sparse at the very least, as it does not address Mr. Wilders’ main point, which is the lack of tolerance and lack of respect for western values by Islamic fundamentalists, while Islam is foolishly being accommodated. The utter calamity, undermining democracy and free speech in the west, is already happening. Wilders is simply pointing that out. You are free to criticize him, our religions and any of our institutions as you see fit without prosecution and death threats. Anyone who is not completely crackers will be able appreciate this main his point after checking out the real garden variety bigots in the following clip:

    I’m sure there are significant numbers within the Islamic communities who are also tired of being bullied by nazi clones like these.

    Well Mr Naeem Siddiqi I am pretty sure you would love the Sharia law put in place so we could back in time to the Stone Age. Maybe you should look at your religion before you judge Mr Wilders. Wait a minute how many Christians and Dutch so called “Right Wing political parties” AKA Nationalists have blown themself up in the name of God.

    I do not believe that I am a predjudiced person. I have always taken pride in looking at others as my bothers and sisters. I believe it is time for us all to stop being violent.
    Then I see “men” murdering women just because women want to be educated. I see “men” circumcising women. I see “men” taking great pleasure in beheading their enemy on public TV/internet. I see “men” putting up walls for women to hide behind when worshipping their God. I see “men” insisting that women walk around with a hood over their face. I see “men” publically whipping women for drinking alcohol or being raped. And I see “men” praying to a religious leader who was responsible for the murder of many Jews. I see leaders of Muslim countries publically say that the Jews must be wiped off the face of the earth.
    These “men” are a destructive cult, not a religious movement.
    In of itself, the treatment of women in Islam should set off alarm bells.
    Thank you Geert Wilders for warning all rationale and empathetic humans about a group of male cultists whose main ambition is to murder, murder, murder for murder’s own sake.

    Islam is a violent, detestable cult. Mr. Wilders is doing the free world a great service by exposing it as a fascist movement.

    why is the world bowing to i SLAM?? Is it because we have become a bunch of degenerates?. Have we as a people chosen the path of “least resistance”,when the path of Christ teaches the exact opposite.Jesus was crucified because He spoke out against the ruling EliteThe muslims have learned very well , the propoganda of the nazi germany, and in silencing its dissenters . One would think that the holocaust of millions of people would be so traumatised into the psyche of freedom loving people , that we would concur with the ISRAELIS “NEVER AGAIN”.

    And yet we have one lone man who has prety much sacrificed his LIFE toward the cause of freedom .By one lone man , i mean , i don’t see the Dutch people rallying in the millions in support of Mr. wilders. This is not only a Dutch problem , it is world wide darkness that opposes the light of FREEDOM OF CHOICE.
    My solution ,would be to send all the feminists and the LEFtists to SAUDI ARABIA for 1 month. Let them have a fire side seat of what their stupidity entails
