Geert Wilders and islam

If a film of Mein Kampf is made with images of the Holocaust would we ban its creator on the grounds that it insults all Germans? The quran is littered with obscene passages as is the old testament, the difference is that in Islam no one questions that they are the word of god whilst the old testament has been quietly ignored by most christians. In a conflict between the laws of Great Britain and those of islam most moslems, even the so called moderates, will choose islam. This is a state of affairs that cannot be allowed to continue.

Our government rather than stand up for secular values and the rule of law appeases and capitulates to moslems. As Wilders says (and I am no supporter of right wing views) a tide of islamofascism is gathering momentum across Europe and just like its precursor in the 1930’s we must stand up to it and if our government won’t do it then we as individuals must.

Suggest you try reposting it with the following changes:- In the first paragraph refer to "some" moslems rather than "most", and replace "the so-called moderates" with "some moderates".

And, in the next paragraph replace ". . capitulates to moslems" with "capitulates to islam".

Maybe I'm crediting the BBC with too much sophistication but it will be interesting to see.

. . or perhaps its just the reference to Mein Kampf they don't like!

Graham, excellent blog. Just noticed it by clicking on a link on the Freethinker blog. Sorry I've missed it hitherto. Would like to link reciprocally. Perhaps you could contact me via the Pink Triangle blog or at editor[AT]pinktriangle.org.uk. Keep up the good work.
