Free Speech vs. Islam in Europe
by Geert Wilders https://www.legal-project.org/258/free-speech-vs-islam-in-europe Excerpt: Ladies and gentlemen. It is really great to be here in California. It is very kind of you to give me the opportunity to escape from the wind, cold and rain in my own beautiful country, the Netherlands. I thank the David Horowitz Freedom Center for inviting me. Ladies and gentlemen, free speech is no longer a given in Europe. What we once considered a natural element of our existence, our birth right, is now something we once again have to battle for. To exercise free speech has become a dangerous activity. As you may know, I will be prosecuted in the Netherlands, because of my short documentary Fitna and my view concerning what some call 'a religion of peace'. On top of that, also France and Jordan are considering to prosecute me for my view on Islam and the United Kingdom government did not allow me to enter their country. And the President of Indonesia declared that I will never be allowed to enter Indonesia as long as I live. So a special thanks to the United States border police for letting me enter this country. It feels good to be allowed entering a country once in a while. Read the complete original version of this item...
