Geert Wilders

Geert Wilders, a Dutch politician and leader of the Dutch Freedom Party, has been under indictment for two and a half years in the Netherlands.  He made a film called "Fitna," that included clips of Islamic Imams giving speeches that call for violence against Jews and infidels, and which featured Koranic quotes commanding violence, juxtaposed with photos of recent Muslim atrocities (in New York, Madrid, London and Beslan).  His point:  Islam is a very violent religion that is responsible for ongoing mass murder in many parts of the world.  He called on Muslims to reform their religion and "tear out" the hateful pages in the Koran that call for violence against non-believers.

Geert Wilders has long opposed Muslim immigration into the Netherlands due to the recent violence there and in other countries, and the refusal of Muslim immigrants to assimilate into Dutch society.  They are sound reasons, based firmly in reality as opposed to the wishful thinking of leftist politicians.  Wilders has received numerous death threats from Muslims and must live under a 24 hour guard to protect him from "the religion of peace"....in his own country.

The Netherlands, like much of Europe, has become a Politically Correct form of fascism, where free speech is rigorously suppressed if it involves any criticism of this violent and intolerant religion.  Wilders soon found himself on trial for "inciting hatred" against Muslims (for telling the truth about their religion).  Truth is not a defense in much of Europe -- if you break the speech codes imposed by government, you are subject to trial and imprisonment.

In the Netherlands, the prosecution stated before the trial that they believed Wilders to be innocent of the charges; however, the judges forced the trial to go forward anyway.

Reuters reports:

The presiding judge said Wilders' remarks were sometimes "hurtful," "shocking" or "offensive," but that they were made in the context of a public debate about Muslim integration and multi-culturalism, and therefore not a criminal act.

"I am extremely pleased and happy," Wilders told reporters after the ruling. "This is not so much a win for myself, but a victory for freedom of speech. Fortunately you can criticize Islam and not be gagged in public debate."

The slaughter of UN workers and other westerners in Afghanistan this week, over a burned Koran, was eye-opening.  According to some sources, as many as twenty people died at the hands of rampaging Afghanis who committed mass murder in reprisal.  Twenty people killed for a book made of paper and ink.  It is doubtful that any of the perpetrators will be adequately punished.  In Islam, it is not a capital crime to murder "infidels," no matter what the reason.

And this brings up the question:  why are we there?  Islamic societies are so barbaric, uncivilized and savage that any attempt to reform them appears futile.  In any case, they aren't worth the cost in blood and money.  Those on the right who want to democratize the world are on a fool's errand.  

The only sane policy now is for the West to separate itself from Islamic societies and cultures as completely as possible.  This is the only sound way to protect our people from this corrosive, savage culture.

To hell with Islam, its prophet, its Koran, its culture and everything else connected with it.

Peter King, a representative from New York, is holding hearings to determine the extent of radicalization among domestic Muslim youth.  He is being denounced as conducting a "witch hunt."  Oh yez, it's not as if any Muslims were going to open fire on soldiers at Fort Hood or plant bombs in Times Square, for goodness sake.  Or shoot people in airports, cultural centers or army recruiting stations, or run over them in cars.  Or plan dozens of other missions that have failed.  To fear Islam is called "Islamophobia" and there are now organizations formed to combat this menace, lest any terrorist be stopped before he can detonate his bomb or pull a trigger.

Islamophobia is, I suppose, the left's description of an "irrational" fear of Islam.  Just as in the 1950s - 1980's there was an "irrational" fear of communism.  Fearing murderous, totalitarian ideologies whose followers are bent on your death or enslavement -- oh yez, that's truly "irrational" all right.  Especially when you consider that much of the world has already fallen prey to these movements and have suffered the very things that you "irrationally" fear.

Any irrationality is in those who do not fear aggressive, violent ideologies -- in effect, those who are in denial about the reality of the threat.  

We have millions of Muslims in our midst and they aren't anxious to help law enforcement ferret out the fanatics who will attempt bombings and other acts of terror.  Why is that?  Possible, even probably, it is because the non-cooperating Muslims know full well that the fanatics are merely practicing Islam as it was designed to be practiced, by making enemies of all non-Muslims and working for their subjugation through treachery, force and violence.

Islamophobia is a GOOD thing.  Islamophobia may result in our physical and spiritual survival.

You go Peter King.
