Geert Wilders addresses crowd today near Ground Zero in NY City, despite call for his beheading a week ago by an Islamic cleric

9/11/10, from Geert Wilders remarks to the crowd today at Park Place and West Broadway in Manhattan (Mr. Wilders objects to people threatening to decapitate others, so is deemed by the UK as a 'hater' and banned from entering Britain. Those who threaten decapitations are of course welcome in the UK. ed.)
They understand that it is both a provocation and a humiliation. They understand the triumphant narrative of a mosque named after the Great Mosque of Cordoba which was constructed where a Christian cathedral stood before the land was conquered by Islam.

An overwhelming majority of Americans is opposed to building an Islamic cultural center close to Ground Zero.

  • There is no lack of mosques in New York.
There are dozens of buildings in which Muslims can pray. It isn’t about a lack of space for prayers. It’s about the symbolic meaning.

We who have come to speak today, object to this mosque project because its promoter and his
  • wealthy sponsors have never suggested building a center to promote tolerance and interfaith understanding
where it is really needed: In Mecca –
  • a town where non-Muslims are not even allowed to enter, let alone build churches, synagogues, temples or community centers.
Ordinary Americans object to the mosque project because
  • currently no fewer than ten major multi-million dollar mosque projects
  • are being planned in the United States as well as
  • dozens in Europe,
while not a single church is allowed
  • in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia,
while Jews are not even allowed to move their lips in prayer on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem,
  • while the oldest Christians in the world, the Copts, are not free to renovate their churches,
  • let alone to build one in Egypt.
My friends, that is why we are here today. What happens in New York must be seen in the perspective of the world. The events nine years ago made an enormous impact everywhere. Most people shared your pain, but,
  • unfortunately, some did not.
Nine years ago, when the news of the terrible atrocity in New York reached Europe,
  • Muslim youths danced in the streets.
In a poll, two thirds of the Muslim immigrants in the Netherlands expressed partial or full understanding for the 9/11 terrorists.
f a mosque were built here on Ground Zero such people would feel triumphant.

But we, we will not betray those who died on 9/11.

For their sakes we cannot tolerate a mosque on or near Ground Zero.
  • For their sakes loud and clear we say: No mosque here!
For their sakes, we must draw the line.
So that New York, rooted in Dutch tolerance, will never become New Mecca.

But, let us also express our gratitude for the heroes of 9/11, those who went down in that Pennsylvania field, those who were standing freedom’s watch at the Pentagon, and those who were here in New York nine years ago to risk and lose their lives for the victims."....

P.S. Mr. Wilders doesn't sound 'radical' or 'right wing' here, rather a calm voice of reason and facts in a media world that throws labels like 'hate' around, stifling honest dialogue. I'm pretty sure the BBC thinks of itself as very smart and 'tolerant,' but in an article today, their characterization of Mr. Wilders is so off base one can only assume the BBC is very suicidal.
  • UPDATE:

"For the record, Wilders' call to ban the qur'an has to be understood in the context of Dutch law, which does ban books.

  • *Wilders said if Mein Kamf is banned, the qur'an should be, too. It was a call for a consistent application of existing Dutch law."

People who call for others to be beheaded are not banned in Britain.
9/3/10, "Barred from entering Britain last year (2009) to stop him spreading "hatred", Wilders is known abroad for his 17-minute anti-Islam commentary, "Fitna", which was termed "offensively anti-Islamic" by

His Party for Freedom came third in June 9 national elections, nearly tripling its number of parliamentary seats to 24.

Wilders is set to go on trial in the Netherlands in October on charges of

In the UK and in the UN, it is not inciting hatred to call for someone to be decapitated. If you object to such threats on behalf of mankind, you are termed a 'hater' and banned from the country. ed.
