1st hand information from jihadwatch poster Holger Dansker posting at 3:41 PM today...

Attitudes are changing rapidly here in the Netherlands and people are getting very fed up. Wilders party the party for freedom has 9 members in the Dutch parliament and if an election was to be held now would have over 20. It is only a matter of time before he holds the balance of power in the parliament, if not at the next election but certainly the following one.

Speaking of films about the middle east, has anyone seen the film or read the book “The Kite Runner” ? I read the book but was wondering how I can see the film it was out just a few weeks in my area. I wonder if it will go to DVD.

CD

The more extreme the pagan Moon cult fundamentalist whackos who call themselves Muslims are in their reactions against freedom of speech and human rights the better for everyone because the world will see them for the rabid dogs they really are.

The Dutch government is short sighted;

Yes, they are. But they are not only ones.

“The Netherlands also has a tradition of respect, tolerance and responsibility. Unnecessarily offending certain groups does not belong here.”

Translation:

“If we accept dhimmitude humbly, our muslim overlords promise not to cut off our heads.”

I've heard of it and heard that it may cause controversy but have not seen it.

According to FoxNews, an Iranian official has warned the Netherlands not to allow screening of the film:

“A senior Iranian lawmaker warned the Netherlands on Monday not to allow the screening of what it called an anti-Islamic film produced by a Dutch politician, claiming it “reflects insulting views about the Holy Koran.”

Alaeddin Boroujerdi, head of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, promised widespread protests and a review of Iran’s relationship with the Netherlands if Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders’ work is shown.

“If Holland will allow the broadcast of this movie, the Iranian parliament will request to reconsider our relationship with it,” Boroujerdi said, according to IRNA, the official Iranian news agency. “In Iran, insulting Islam is a very sensitive matter and if the movie is broadcasted it will arouse a wave of popular hate that will be directed towards any government that insults Islam.

Wilders calls his 10-minute film “a call to shake off the creeping tyranny of Islamicization, “ and said it could air as early as this week on Dutch television.

“People who watch the movie will see that the Koran is very much alive today, leading to the destruction of everything we in the Western world stand for, which is respect and tolerance,” Wilders, the 41-year-old leader of the right-wing Party for Freedom, said last month in a telephone interview with FOXNews.com.

“The tsunami of Islamicization is coming to Europe. We should come to be far stronger.”

The Kite Runner

I have seen the Movie last week. It is a good film, it is a moving personal story of the characters involved, without much politics and/or war scenes. Towards the end it gets interesting and has some interesting twists. In general it is anti russian, anti taliban, US involvement is not mentioned.

“Unnecessarily offending certain groups does not belong here”

This is very untrue, a long while back it was very fashionable to insult Christianity by the media, mostly by ‘comedians’ and other tv-personalities.

THey said harsher things then Wilders say about muslims. I can remember what was said on the Pope with some tv-show. Very insulting, there was commotion but still.
