I won't watch the film, but I read the Wiki article on it and am surprised there haven't been more protests...

There was a quote stating that the films creator has equated Muslims with violence and Muslims "reject this interpretation".

Don't be a Muslim and people won't think you're a murderous fanatic who's religion dictates that people must suffer and women must be treated as cattle.

I doubt people remember East Timor, but for those who don't, East Timor, a former Portuguese colony near Indonesia, was seized by the Indonesians (the largest muslim nation in the world). Though mostly Christian, many of the East Timorese were forced to convert to Islam or given the choice of being killed. Some that did were killed anyway so as to be "purified".
So much for tolerance.
By the looks of it from this film, we can expect to receive the same here...if we are timid enough to roll over.
I don't think many of us will...at least from what i am hearing on this forum.
That is encouraging.
A good argument for anti gun control.

Looks like LiveLeak upgraded their security and has it up again.
On the 28th of March LiveLeak.com was left with no other choice but to remove the film "fitna" from our servers following serious threats to our staff and their families. Since that time we have worked constantly on upgrading all security measures thus offering better protection for our staff and families. With these measures in place we have decided to once more make this video live on our site. We will not be pressured into censoring material which is legal and within our rules. We apologise for the removal and the delay in getting it back, but when you run a website you don't consider that some people would be insecure enough to threaten our lives simply because they do not like the content of a video we neither produced nor endorsed but merely hosted.

Bravo LiveLeak!

What? From the Religion of Peace? How can that be?

Normal Muslims really need to stand up against these freaks bastardizing their religion. If indeed that is what's happening.

Dutch to prosecute Geert Wilders for “Fitna”?

The source, RIA Novosti (via Nice Deb), is dicey but Radio NetherlandsDPA report agrees. Scum: quotes the Dutch foreign minister as saying prosecutors are looking into it and the last line of this
The Dutch prosecutor’s office is preparing to take legal action against the maker of an ‘anti-Koran’ film in an attempt to ease tensions over the film’s release, the Dutch foreign minister said on Monday…
Although moderate Islamic groups have said the film is “nothing new” and have made appeals for Muslims to “react calmly and within the law,” the prospect of a backlash in the Islamic world remains a distinct possibility.

Pat Condell has his usual no-nonsense take on it.

Surprisingly it's been pretty quiet in the middle east about this. I expect more violence on Friday when the mosques whip up the ROP followers into their usual fury. The best flag and effigy burning is always on Friday don't ya know.

Saw that but didn't have time to post. It was right on the money. Good video for those PC folks to watch.
