Geert Wilders to me, is speaking for those who cant speak out. The truth of the matter is, Netherland as a country, does not welcome foreign people, but the institution wants the world to know that, they are. Mister Wilders is telling the whole world what the society thinks about foreigners and in that context, he is not a danger to Netherland. Rather Netherland is a danger to herself.

Geert represents an unknown in national governing and international relations, and this is causing serious doubts outside of the Netherlands. That the Christian Democrats are warning both those inside and outside the Netherlands about Geert and the PVV, more than sends the message that Geert is being marginalized further and further into a corner on the right. The likelihood of Geert forming or entering into a coalition entering as far as the centre of the Dutch political spectrum is seriously remote. Votes for Geert are quickly being relegated to those of a second-tier protest variety. With the recent news of foreign investment increasing in the Netherlands illustrates two crucial points: first, foreign investors feel comfortable with the social stability and demographics as they exist in Holland, second, there is now more at risk for the Dutch economy if Geert becomes PM and attempts to interpret the constitution and government of the Netherlands in his own fashion, which in turn heightens uncertainty and risk for international capital in the country.

Could Wilders rant and rave his nonsense against Jews? I hope not. But against Muslims, anything is OK, it seems.

The Muslim haters in Europe and the Netherlands are extremely depressing to me and make me think that the next holocaust, of Muslims, this time, is on the way. Maybe Bush's murder campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan are the first step.

Lester Ness, American with a Dutch grandfather, teaching in China. I love my Muslim students.

The hypocrisy of many free governments in dealing with Islam is, is perplexing and very sad at the same time. What if the Nazi's had been exposed before they came to power, and were swiftly and efficiently dealt with. How many millions would still be alive, and how much suffereing could have been averted?

Initially I was very skeptical of this mans claims, so I fact checked, and did a lot of research of my own, the conclusion is frightening to say the least. Islam in its present form is simply incompatible with any free people. Here in America we are slowly being transformed from a democracy to a "corpocracy" with government of the corporation, for the corporation, and by the corporation. This can become a form of fascism if the voters here do not wake up quickly, but it is nothing, when compared to the medieval and primitive mindset of sharia law. One day the religious police may show up to shut down radio free Netherlands if the Dutch people do not wake up and hear the message of warning from this man.

Yes he is extreme in nature, but so is the threat. I would suggest that you focus your attention on the message, and not the man. He is irrelevant, the message is not. In the US anyone who is Muslim should be excluded from obtaining citizenship, because their allegiance is to the Koran, and not to the US constitution, you cannot have it both ways. Yet our government appeases them, just like he Nazi's were appeased before WW2, we have learned from history that appeasement simply does not work when you are dealing with a Fascist ideology.

My hat is of to this man who has the courage to speak the truth without the binds of political correctness. His message supports the image of the Netherlands abroad, it does not detract from it. To see a woman in a Burka in Amsterdam is the true shame for the Dutch people, please wake up and support freedom, thank you.

Is Wilders a danger to Dutch foreign interests? HELL NO! If anything, Wilders is bringing lots of attention to how seriously dangerous Islamists terrorists are, and to what lengths they will go to destroy us all if they had half a chance. Just take a look at USA recently, two White Americans who converted to Islam and were arrested for an assination attempt on the Swedish cartoonists because he used his freedom of speech and drew a cartoon of Mohammad. Two years ago, two white German nationals that converted to Islam were caught plotting to bomb an American base in Germany! If anything, Wilders is protecting the Dutch and also Western interest by keeping the terrorists out and making it clear to them we will not put up with their sharia law mumbo jumbo crime of hate on our lands! What kind of inhuman barbaric animals kill a human being over a cartoon?

More on productivity: Where is that wealthy Islamic nation that obtained its wealth from something it actually produced? The Oil was already there in the ground and first pumped by the Brits. What will they do when it runs out? World Wide Welfare? What product does the rest of the world use that was designed or manufactured in an Islamic controlled country? Why are there no cars, planes, TVs, etc, designed and manufactured in these countries with their combined populations exceeding a billion? It should be obvious that Islam wastes the mental abilities of its observers, and in particular, a full half of its population - women.

It shouldn't take a genius to realize that the imposition of Sharia Law in the Netherlands would be economic death in a competitive world.

We, here in America, are watching to see if Geert Wilders has been denied free speech in his own country. To think that he is being tried for saying what the majority thinks shows that the current govenment is one of expediency rather than principle.

It is better to face the problem now and install mechanisms to preserve the integrity of Dutch Culture than eventually fight an inevitable civil war in a future generation. There are only two outcomes from the imposition of Sharia Law - two separate societies in the same country and civil war. Neither reflect the heritage of an internationally respected culture and either will destroy the economic integrity of the country.

The Islamic crisis in European countries was mostly created by importing workers without answering some fundamental questions:

1. Do the workers bring, real, creative skills that contribute to the economic growth of the society, or, will they only provide labor? This is the test used by the US for legal immigration.

2. If imported for labor, will they remain or stay after the need for their labor has been satisfied? Admittedly, this is a faux question because people have offspring and that creates citizenship issues.

It's not difficult to see that it's somewhat late to reclaim the portion of culture now underwater, however, it's not too late to install culture dikes and preserve what is left. It's hard to understand why one productive society will let itself be absorbed by another existential society in just a few lifetimes.

Have suicide bombings reached 1000 yet? Tolerate what???

what is the use of respecting someones culture who does not respect yours and shows nothing but contempt?

Are we having another NSB period in Holland??

The most severe danger constitute the extreme Islamists who bomb, kill and maim innocent people and who destroy entire regions and areas. To hell with them.
