There are so many things about the Netherlands that I won’t ever understand.

malan89 on March 20, 2008 at 11:04 PM

And now he’s suggesting to release a movie called “Fitna” that’s radically critical towards islam.

Jumpin Jehosophat!

Holy Moly!

Ai Carumba!

Okay… the guy’s hair IS ridiculous. It just needs to be said.

AbaddonsReign on March 20, 2008 at 11:08 PM

Trying to gain favour with their new overlords?

Canadian Infidel on March 20, 2008 at 11:11 PM

For a part of the world that professes to really love their clitorises it seems ironic that some of them seem to be in such a hurry to be shed of them or if you prefer you can exchange the word clitorises for freedoms, same difference.

Speakup on March 20, 2008 at 11:13 PM

Was that an out take of the new HBO series “John Adams”?

Really stupid people.

Connie on March 20, 2008 at 11:34 PM

If you look up the word “Dhimmi” in the dictionary, those people’s picture is there.

And we’re proud to live in a country where we’ve all inherited freedom of speech.

Which we’ll know be happy to hand over to Islamic extremists.

He made a little movie. They claim to feel embarassed. So they say they have to spring into action to void what he has done. They seem very threatened by individuality. I’ve always felt that this overwhelming need to control the thoughts of everyone else has to be based on massive insecurity and self-doubt.

snaggletoothie on March 20, 2008 at 11:40 PM

At first read through, I thought that was just a really bad case of sarcasm…

simon on March 20, 2008 at 11:40 PM

He is scared of aliens and especially of muslim aliens.

The morons are not politically correct…but they’re still morons.

Entelechy on March 20, 2008 at 11:40 PM

And they claim to be proud of their freedom of speech?

The world has gone completely mad. Up is down. Down is Up.

TheBigOldDog on March 20, 2008 at 11:48 PM

Make no apologies for free speech.

Dollayo on March 20, 2008 at 11:54 PM

They really want to live in GAZA II, or Pakistan, Jr., or Saudi Arabia Lite?

Their motto:

“I’m going to be tolerant, even if it kills me.”

It shall.

profitsbeard on March 20, 2008 at 11:54 PM

I couldn’t stand it. The talkback section was soooo idiotic I had register and post. I loved this quote:

Making some fun and doing something is better than doing nothing.

Jah, jah. It’s all fun and games until somebody sticks a knife in your throat and stones your sister to death.

smellthecoffee on March 21, 2008 at 12:13 AM

You are to blame for the collective sin shared by all infidels. Apologize! Repent!

daryl_herbert on March 21, 2008 at 12:17 AM

Isn’t this attempt doomed to fail? Since the real video will be linked from across the conservative blogosphere, it will get many more views than each one of the hundreds or thousands faux videos … and therefore will always be at the top of the search results.

Or am I misunderstanding how these things work?

aunursa on March 21, 2008 at 12:25 AM

Pretty obvious from the site who’s really scared of muslims.

exlibris on March 21, 2008 at 12:32 AM

Now where did I put that film?

Johan Klaus on March 21, 2008 at 12:37 AM

It’s just the same old tactic that the left has always used, shout over any ideas that they don’t agree with. Now they’re doing it electronically. They’ve always been unwilling to engage ideas.

jaime on March 21, 2008 at 12:50 AM

” Sorry, Sorry, Oh So Sorry “

Apologize to your grandchildren, idiots, for they will pay the brave price for your gutless appeasement.

Saltysam on March 21, 2008 at 1:33 AM

I sooo thought it was a parody site. Especially the Onion like links to the right. I.E. Media make normal people like me ANGRY.

P.S. The more I read the more I understand that these people are nuts. I mean they make Code Pink look like . . . well ok they are clowns, but you know what I mean.

MirCat on March 21, 2008 at 2:00 AM

wussies.

homesickamerican on March 21, 2008 at 3:45 AM

We all remember how our favourite asshole cinematographer Theo was slaughtered like a pig in the street after making “Submission” with Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

“Make Love not movies.”

And they are wondering why they see their countries taken away from them.

They are handing them to the Muslims.

A gift, free of charge, any Muslim can never refuse.

Idiots.

Indy Conservative on March 21, 2008 at 4:44 AM

I think we do have our own “Dutch,” they live in San Francisco.

malan89 on March 20, 2008 at 11:04 PM

The Neanderlands are nothing more than another layover on the way to pan-European islamism and sharia. Maybe once they’re forced to dress their women like ninjas, and watch televised stonings in the streets, they might partially wake up, and realize how bad their country has become. Somehow, I doubt it, though. Just picture the Neanderlands as being the nation the Hillarys and Obamas want to transform the US into. That’s their paradise.

Virus-X on March 21, 2008 at 4:56 AM

Let’s all make our own “Fitna” movies!

The Be Kind-Rewind school of appeasement.

And they still can’t understand why no one else takes them seriously.

I guess not every one is in “the know”.
(and I’m talking about this website)
I sort of hate opening a story here and there’s nothing but a link (even Huffington Post, which I do visit for evil laughs, has a “summary feature” for every post)
Just to let you know, people who visit 1 or 2 times a day (and don’t have that much time to spare), enjoy politics for the most part, agree with the conservative side of life, are sort of intelligent in life (mid 50s, medicine) could USE A LITTLE dumbing down now and then.

For the simple-minds like me– “Dutch politician (blonde guy) takes stand on Islam, is attacked in site (see link) by a bunch of Dutch dorks filming “sorry” videos.”

Marcus on March 21, 2008 at 7:08 AM

And before I get slammed, I have to laugh. I’m in the physicians lounge wasting some time, asked two others if they knew who this blonde was, and they both said “No, but that’s Obama”.

Marcus on March 21, 2008 at 7:21 AM

We need to take care of our immigration policies quickly because these are the type of people who will be banging at the door when islam takes over europe. They will not have learned a lesson and will poison our country. Lazy, post modern socialist european trash.

peacenprosperity on March 21, 2008 at 7:34 AM

These are the same people who bent over for Hitler and said, “yes sir, that felt really great. Do it again, please.” So why are we surprised.

They are disgusting; they deserve the burqa; and so so so much more.

Gartrip on March 21, 2008 at 7:53 AM

Well, they are a pretty sorry lot.

rbj on March 21, 2008 at 8:40 AM

The New Dutch Anthem:

We’re so sorry…Uncle Allah
We’re So Sorry If We Caused You Any Pain
We’re So Sorry…Uncle Allah
But Few Brave Dutchman Are At Home
And I Believe We Are Afraid

We’re So Sorry Bout Geert Wilders Shame Today
We’re So Sorry…Uncle Allah
And If Anything Should Happen We’ll Be Sure To Run Away

We’re So Sorry…Uncle Allah
But We Promise T’Spoof Geert’s Bloody Fitna Film
We’re So Sorry…Uncle Allah
But Islam’s On The Boil And We’re So Easily Scared Away

NuclearPhysicist on March 21, 2008 at 8:50 AM

The comment by Drew Alexander is excellent (And the one by Thomas immediately preceding it.)

Sorry, you lost me. Wilders is making a movie that is critical of radical Islam. He is critical of Islam because it: relegates women to second class status; punishes women for associating with men who are not related to them by stoning; kills gays; considers free speech an anathema, to list only a few of its proclivities. And you are against him . . . why? Surely you don’t agree with the positions that radical Islam takes in these matters–no, surely you agree with Wilders. So you lost me. Why exactly is it that would you defend radical Islam against Wilders critique, by doing your best to sabotage his critique?

[...] Maybe a little Stockholm Syndrome at work here? In the meantime, “Making some fun and doing something is better than doing nothing.” Why don’t you take up knitting? At least it’s something–and a lot more constructive.

Laura on March 21, 2008 at 8:51 AM

Marcus on March 21, 2008 at 7:21 AM

“No, but that’s Obama.” – one of the saddest commentaries I’ve read in a while on how uninformed most people really are. Blog readers are light years ahead of most people as far as being informed about politics and current events.

BTW I knew the name and the story but I didn’t know what Wilders looked like either – and that’s probably true for most HA users.

Laura on March 21, 2008 at 9:00 AM

Dhimmis.

srhoades on March 21, 2008 at 9:10 AM

I guess I missed it…I thought they were be sarcastic, I thought it was funny, insulting.
Ridiculing Islam is how I read it.

right2bright on March 21, 2008 at 9:10 AM

One of the “We’re Sorry!” bunch – whoever typed up the text of the page – spelled Islam without a capital “I.”

Will that offend a Muslim and possibly get one of the “We’re Sorry! Look how far we can bend over for you!” gang’s head cut off?

Just asking.

splink on March 21, 2008 at 9:18 AM

We needs a European country to be completely taken over by Islam so the rest of the West can see how oppressed they will be.

Grafted on March 21, 2008 at 9:31 AM

Sorry is right.

ronsfi on March 21, 2008 at 9:33 AM

Willem Velthoven, pick a side. Either you fight or you go kneel down at the chopping block. Either way, it’s coming, whether you can imagine it or not.

Geronimo on March 21, 2008 at 9:41 AM

we do not want to stop his movie because we cherish our freedom of expression. Even stupid populist politicians have fundamental rights. Especially they!

We can compete for attention however. And we can produce disinformation. So we are going to make Movies called “Fitna” in which we apologise for Geert Wilders embarrassing behaviour. We will make so many of them that it will be hard to find the movie by Wilders without finding lots of movies apologising for it.

OK, let me get this straight. Because you cherish freedom of expression your plan to counter the words and thoughts of another is to make it virtually impossible for anyone to actually hear that person’s words. Interesting.

And to think, these people are trying to be logical? This is what these idiots come up with after having time to sit and think strategically? I’m sorry but I feel like I’m getting mad at a blind person for not being able to cross the road fast enough. These people are just mentally inferior. In other words, they are MORONS.

Zetterson on March 21, 2008 at 10:23 AM

make it virtually impossible for anyone to actually hear that person’s words

“Signal-to-noise” theory I guess.

Or perhaps “Squawking child” theory would be more appropriate.

LimeyGeek on March 21, 2008 at 10:42 AM

Why don’t we all get together a fund a movie that parodies islam? Something a bit like Monty Python and the Life of Brian. This will give everyone a chance to see how peaceful the extremists are and that they can understand different points of view about their beliefs.

Rogue Traveler on March 21, 2008 at 10:52 AM

malan89 on March 20, 2008 at 11:04 PM

As a Dutch person I can say this, marijuana is legal, just go to any coffee shop and find what does the job for you. If you want coffee, go to a cafe.

Once you understand that just about everyone toke’s then you kinda get a frame of reference and while you may not understand some of the things the Dutch do, you will understand why they do them if you begin with that starting point.

OMG!!

That really disgusted me, to see so many people cower in the face of threat… when are we they going to get some balls and stand up for themselves… It used to be we were the strong once… What the hell has happened to us??
