Geert Wilders,
You are a man of great strength! I hope that you can accomplish what you have set out to do! The world is on the wrong path. There are those that don't believe this. You MUST be the spokesperson
for all of us!
Thank you for your courage!

"First they came for Geert Wilders......."
and I did not stand up because it wasn't me....

May Allah Bless ALL Kaffirs.

Solomon,

I was able to attend Mr. Wilders' presentation because I read about it here. Thank you very much for spreading the word. It was a unique experience; it's rare to have the chance to see such a prominent public figure in such a intimate setting. Despite the lack of publicity, the event was well-attended.

Mr. Wilders is an example of what has become a truly rare breed: A statesman, rather than a politician. He promotes not his own interests, nor merely his immediate constituents' interests; instead, he promotes his nation's and our civilization's interests. And make no mistake: The minority of Muslims who would see Shari'a trump civil law throughout the world are anathema to our civilization.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank Rabbi Houseman for organizing the event. Well done.

The left has alot to answer for. Biblical prophesy always said that evil will come with a smiling and benevolent face.

I interviewed Mr Wilders six years ago, when he visited a Dutch-Israeli parents' home here in Haifa. At that time he still represented the liberal party VVD in Dutch parliament. Although I did not know him at all, two of his main characteristics were clear to me - as can be read in the article that I wrote about his visit: http://yonathanbert.blogspot.com/2003/04/te-vinden-op-www.html ( in Dutch, sorry ) -: his passion ( today I would say: his single-mindedness ), and his straightforwardness. He was fair and honest, it took ( and still takes some ) some electoral guts for a Dutch politician to say in front of a Jewish audience in Israel that you support a Palestinian state.
One observation that I wrote down in 2003 I have corrected in recent years. I had the impression that his sympathy and support for Israel were the result not only of a hatred for Haman but also of a certain love for Mordechai. Today I fully believe that hatred for Haman is what mainly leads Wilders and his party towards supporting the Jewish state. For instance, one of his party's MPs led a fight against hallal AND kosher slaughter after hallal kebab was served in the parliament's restaurant one day. A ban on kosher and hallal slaughter is a favorite topic for rightwing ( and some leftwing ) extremists and animal activists. Both in Germany and in the Netherlands - and elsewhere - a ban on kosher slaughter was one of the first measures taken by the Nazis after they took power.
I still have great respect for Mr Wilders' courage - for more than four years he has led an absolutely abnormal life because of his beliefs - and do believe that most other parties in Holland ignore Islam(ism)-related problems that should be addressed. Still, I think that the PVV's style, extremism and obsessive focus on one issue has only served the islamists and their Dutch apologists: whenever Wilders or one of his party members raises a subject - no matter how relevant and important - hardly anybody else dares to touch it in a serious way, it instantly turns into muktseh.

As for his 'movie', it is basically some kind of Powerpoint presentation, and not a very good and original one. Videos like that one can be seen all over the internet, for and against Islam, Judaism, Christianity, and almost everything else. With another subject, and without the violent attention that it received in the Muslim world, it would have received a few thousand hits on YouTube, and that's it. That does not mean that Geert Wilders should not be allowed to show his piece of art wherever he wants, but that piece also does not justify having him show it all over the world.
The readers and feedbackers of the Dutch daily De Telegraaf have a lot of sympathy for Wilders and the PVV. They often praise the party's views and complain about the islamization of the Netherlands. On the site of the same newspaper you can also see some of the worst examples of today's mainstream brand(s) of Dutch anti-Semitism, sometimes written by the same commentators who had something bad to say about Muslims. This is just another proof of the fact that, while people like Wilders can in certain cases be allies for us, they will never be true friends.

why do you host this evil man of hatred. havent you learned from the hatred of the nazi's.
