Fitna Rage
“Satan” Geert Wilders
* Strange enough: these protestors don’t have a problem with the hate-speeches and the terrorist attacks depicted in the film ‘Fitna’, they have a problem with Wilders connecting the dots between Islam and terrorism…
Members of the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) youth carry posters outside the Netherlands Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, April 1, 2008, to condemn the production and the broadcast of the anti-Islam film “Fitna” by a right-wing Dutch lawmaker. The signs read, “Slander (Fitna) is slander” (C) and “Don’t create religious tension. (R) REUTERS/Zainal Abd Halim (MALAYSIA)

Jonah Goldberg: Geert Wilders film could very easily get him killed
Geert Wilders’ film could very, very easily get him killed. (He’s already guarded around the clock.) It essentially picks up the work of Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh, who was murdered in 2004 by a jihadi for criticizing Islam.
“Fitna” is certainly provocative, yet it has good reason to provoke. A cancer of violence, bigotry and cruelty is metastasizing within the Islamic world.
It’s fine for Muslim moderates to say they aren’t part of the cancer; and that some have, in response to the film, is a positive sign. But more often, diagnosing or even observing this cancer — in film, book or cartoon — is dubbed “intolerant” while calls for violence, censorship and even murder are treated as understandable, if regrettable, expressions of well-deserved anger.
It’s not that secular progressives support Muslim religious fanatics, but they reserve their passion and scorn for religious Christians who are neither fanatical nor inclined to use violence.

* Well, without the usual death-treats who would take them seriously..?
Stumble it!

How dare they publicly insinuate a good Christian such a Wilders is a Satan for producing a peaceful documentary? Christians are peaceful, these protesters should have their mouths sewed and then be flayed and crucified like Christ for the insult against all Christians, their bowels opened as they hang with a rusty directors action device!!! In the name of baby Jesus once they convert of course, bless them………I’ve heard reverse psychology works some of the time anyway. He he

Denutted politicians in the West have made it quite clear that they will act on the whims
and threats of the “tiny minority of misunderstanders who have hijacked a peaceful
religion” rather than on the reasoned thoughts and discussions with “moderate”
representatives of the “peaceful” religion … perhaps because they can’t find any.

I am totally surprised by youtube folks to not censor it. But, I could be just fooling myself since they could still do it like they have done quite a number of other films.
