Geert Wilders speech at his trial (1 Viewer)

[cantseecats]

The trial of anti-Islam MP Geert Wilders on discrimination and inciting hatred charges resumes in Amsterdam on Monday.
Last October the trial was abandoned after senior court officials ruled several irregularities in the proceedings could be deemed prejudicial. New judges have now been appointed.

Judges last week rejected calls by the plaintiffs for new prosecutors to be appointed. Several of the groups which have pressed for legal action against Wilders are angry that the prosecution department had also called for not guilty verdicts on all charges during the first trial.

The lights are going out all over Europe. All over the continent where our culture flourished and where man created freedom, prosperity and civilization. The foundation of the West is under attack everywhere.

All over Europe the elites are acting as the protectors of an ideology that has been bent on destroying us for fourteen centuries. An ideology that has sprung from the desert and that can produce only deserts because it does not give people freedom. The Islamic Mozart, the Islamic Gerard Reve [a Dutch author], the Islamic Bill Gates; they do not exist because without freedom there is no creativity. The ideology of Islam is especially noted for killing and oppression and can only produce societies that are backward and impoverished. Surprisingly, the elites do not want to hear any criticism of this ideology.

My trial is not an isolated incident. Only fools believe it is. All over Europe multicultural elites are waging total war against their populations. Their goal is to continue the strategy of mass immigration, which will ultimately result in an Islamic Europe — a Europe without freedom: Eurabia.

The lights are going out all over Europe. Anyone who thinks or speaks individually is at risk. Freedom-loving citizens who criticize Islam, or even merely suggest that there is a relationship between Islam and crime or honour killing, must suffer, and are threatened or criminalized. Those who speak the truth are in danger.

The lights are going out allover Europe. Everywhere the Orwellian thought police are at work, on the lookout for thought crimes everywhere, casting the populace back within the confines where it is allowed to think.

This trial is not about me. It is about something much greater. Freedom of speech is not the property of those who happen to belong to the elites of a country. It is an inalienable right, the birthright of our people. For centuries battles have been fought for it, and now it is being sacrificed to please a totalitarian ideology.

Future generations will look back at this trial and wonder who was right. Who defended freedom and who wanted to get rid of it.

The lights are going out all over Europe. Our freedom is being restricted everywhere, so I repeat what I said here last year:

It is not only the privilege, but also the duty of free people — and hence also my duty as a member of the Dutch Parliament — to speak out against any ideology that threatens freedom. Hence it is a right and a duty to speak the truth about the evil ideology that is called Islam. I hope that freedom of speech will emerge triumphant from this trial. I hope not only that I shall be acquitted, but especially that freedom of speech will continue to exist in the Netherlands and in Europe.

I hope he gets convicted. A clear provocation of racial hatred if I've ever seen it. When you tell people that "mass migration" of Muslims will take away their freedom (utter lies), lots of people will believe it, which will only lead to violence, racism, and unjust stereotypes of Muslims.

i don't like what this person is saying it hurts my feelings

throw him in gaol

 

[cosmo kramer]

i don't like geert at all but i'm not insane enough to say that at least for the country that he is in he's a gift from the gods

When you tell people that "mass migration" of Muslims will take away their freedom (utter lies

ok assume for asecond that you're right and there's no possibilty muslims becoming a majority in europe will lead to islamic shariah law and whatever (though i would be interested for you to qualify why you dont consider it a possibility)

do you believe that it won't transform europe in extremely important ways (lead to a much larger on-welfare class than would be there if muslims were not present in europe at all, raise crime rates by a sh!tload, more slums, severely impact important non-tangible variables such as social cohesion, interpersonal trust, general quality of life, etc.)

do you believe in the fungibility of human beings

say instead of belgians or native dutch we just switched them out with a few million zambians or nigerians or pakistanis

do you think things would be EXACTLY THE SAME and for the BETTER

so if not, why on earth would anybody actually think that a mass-scale replacement of europeans with people of middle eastern descent would however, keep things the same and for the BETTER

also lol at provocation of "racial hatred"

wilders is basically a wussy neocon who thinks everything is a result of culture and religion never race and thinks talking about race is abhorrent

he's just a glorified neocon when it comes down to the wire but compared to the alternatives in the ultra-liberal netherlands hes the best thing to ever happen there and i support him for that reason

he prob doesnt like islam because it doesnt want to worship homosexuals and feminism

i bet wilders would think if the netherlands was filling up with christian zambians things would be just fine

hell no
