A must-see for everyone

DUTCH far-right MP Geert Wilders made good on his pledge to post his
controversial film critical of Islam on the internet, which features
violent imagery of terrorist attacks in New York and Madrid intertwined
with Koranic texts.
The first minutes of the 15-minute movie - posted today on
www.liveleak.com - show a Koran being opened and the text of a sura from
Islam's holiest tome, which it translated from Arabic as imploring the
faithful to "terrorise the enemies of Allah".

It was followed by images of airplanes flying into the World Trade Centre
in New York on September 11, 2001, with soundbites from phone calls to the
emergency services on that day.

The film continues with grisly images of bloodstained bodies in the
aftermath of the Madrid train bombings in March 2004 in which 191 people
were killed.

Mr Wilder's movie plans had already drawn complaints from religious groups
and warnings from the Dutch government that it could provoke violent
protests around the world.

Despite pressure from The Hague not to release the movie, Mr Wilders
pushed ahead. Dutch officials fear a repeat of violent protests that
erupted when European newspapers printed cartoons depicting the Prophet
Mohammed.

Liveleak is a British-based video sharing website, similar to the more
popular YouTube, with an emphasis on current events, politics and
reality-based footage, including images of war from around the world.

Dutch news media reported that the Dutch cabinet has seen the film, but
there was no immediate reaction from the government.

In comments to the Netherlands' domestic ANP news agency to, Mr Wilders,
44, said he felt Fitna is "a decent film".

He said that he can understand that Muslims could be upset about the film,
but stressed: "It remains widely within the framework of the law".

"My film was not made to provoke violence," he said, adding that he hoped
there would not be riots now that he had posted the film.

The movie includes images of Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh who was killed
in 2004 by a Muslim radical for also making a film critical of Islam.

After nearly 10 minutes of selected Koranic verses followed by gruesome
images of attacks, beheadings, beatings, and speeches by unidentified
Muslim clerics condemning infidels, Wilders turns to the situation in the
Netherlands.

The film shows statistics of the growing Muslim population in the
Netherlands and shows images of female genital mutilation, a hanging of
suspected gay men, beheadings and bloodied children, all following the
words: "The Netherlands in future?".

The film concludes with someone leafing through the Koran, and a tearing
sound is heard.

"The sound you heard was from a page (being torn out) of the phone book.
It is not up to me, but up to the Muslims themselves to tear the spiteful
verses from the Koran", says a text that appears on the screen.

"Stop Islamisation. Defend our freedom", the film concludes.

The final image is a reproduction of the Danish cartoon of the Prophet
Mohammed with a bomb as a turban. The fuse coming from the bomb is lit and
as the screen turns black there is the sound of thunder.

Mr Wilders, whose Freedom party holds nine seats in the 150-seat Dutch
parliament, is no stranger to controversy. Even before he announced his
film he had already received numerous death threats and lives under
round-the-clock protection following the murder of Van Gogh.


Damn muslims cant face the truth - they are savage, murders and intolerant
of non-muslims.The rest of the world should wake up and face up to the
facts - forget being politically correct as muslims certainly arent!
islam does not respect any other religion or culture, why should islam be
respected!!!
