Geert Wilders UK Press Conference parts 1 & 2
"I hope, once again, that the UK government will never, never turn back somebody for political reasons because they don't like what they are saying," "My aim is not to insult anybody, my aim is to defend our freedom and I believe that the more Islam we get in our free societies, the less freedom we will get."
Controversial Dutch MP Enters Britain After Winning Ban Appeal

(RTTNews) - Friday, controversial far-right Dutch MP Geert Wilders entered Britain, just three days after he won an appeal against a British government decision banning him from entering the country over concerns that his presence would spark inter-faith violence.
Britain's Asylum and Immigration Tribunal on Tuesday upheld Wilders' appeal against the entry ban and overturned a government decision that led to Wilder being turned back at Heathrow earlier this year.
Speaking at a press conference inside the Houses of Parliament on Friday, Wilders described the decision to allow him into the country as a "victory for the freedom of speech," and said that he believed British government's argument that his presence in the country "would lead to violence" was "absurd.
"I hope, once again, that the UK government will never, never turn back somebody for political reasons because they don't like what they are saying," Wilders said.
The British government had banned Wilders from entering the country in February, indicating that his radical views on Islam could be a threat to communal harmony and public security. Wilders, who had called Koran a "fascist book," is also facing trial in The Netherlands for inciting hatred towards Muslims by making anti-Islamic statements.
Wilders had arrived in Britain on 12th February after being invited by Lord Pearson, a member of the House of Lords, to show his film Fitna, which had caused an outrage among Muslims across the world when it was posted on the internet last year. The opening footage of Wilders' controversial film shows verses of Koran, followed by footage of the 9/11 attacks in the U.S. and the bombings in Madrid in 2004 and London in 2005.
"I have nothing against Muslims, I know the majority of Muslims in our society are law-abiding people," Wilders said Friday. "I have a problem with the Islamic ideology, the Islamic culture, because I believe that the more Islam we get in our free societies, the less freedom we will get."

Gibberish.
I don't care about Islam or this filth-pig Euro Nazi.
I don't buy the fact that Islam is going to take over the world and behead all of us...at least not Texas.

I hope you don't get death threats for posting this... it's unbelievable to see how the religion of peace acts so violent to non-members.

Man, UK reporters are some leftist drivel masters. Talk about painfully politically correct. It's no wonder Britain is being taken over, the government, police and press are full of multiculturalistic surrender monkeys.
Geert is only speaking the TRUTH, the truth is to far left wingers (and, to be fair, far right wingers as well) what Kryptonite is to Superman.

I dont understand how politicans take the side of extemist muslims who threaten all non believers to death just outside where geert wilders is having a civilised discussion.
If you saisd to geert wilders "i dont agree with you" he will just say thats your opinion and leave it at that but ask anyone of those so called peacefull muslims that you disagree with them and they will say you should be killed for insulting islam.
There are moderate muslims who I have no problems with whatsoever but when radical muslims get police protection to say they are going to take over the UK by force until all are muslim and calling for the murder of any non muslims i feel like lobbing a grenade right into the middle of those ****ers and im not the only one.
Im not the violent type but if it came down to me or them, its a non brainer!!
in my opinion all religion is bad but islam is the only one that openly encorages its followers to kill non belivers in order to steal what they have and using a blood lust to kill innocents to progress their sick twisted views.
even though there are alot of pussies in parliment which are shown on the news, what you dont see is the extremely large groups against islam taking the piss out of the UK and i guarantee that if muslims decide to "rise against the kuffars" then they wont be around longer than a day.
Extremist muslims are confident because they display all the might that they have whereas the brits keep our cards hidden until we need to show them. whatever happens, muslims wont win in the UK, US or EU & thats guaranteed!

Well put.

His Fitna video was basic fear mongering & basically bullshit. You can do exactly the same thing with the old testament, taking the violent aspects & sensationalising it, mix it up with all the death attributed to the Christians of the world & viola, hate video against Christian faith.
The guy's a jerkoff & a good friend of Israel. He's not alone there though.

He's certainly maintained his core points about Radical Islam.
I believe that given the totallity of the evidence, his opinion is very valid.
I was wondering? Given the history of Radical Islam and their reaction to this type of criticism who do you think pushes the cart that supports his nut sack because they must be huge!
