It is appalling that he will be prosecuted, but Wilders is no free-speech absolutist. He has advocated the banning of the Koran in Holland. While I think the Koran is just another collection of fairy tales, like the Bible and all other religious texts, people do have a right to read it. The real solution to the problem isn't book-banning, but taking a sensible approach to immigration policy and taking measures to protect the native culture that do not deprive the immigrants of their speech, property and religious rights. The bottom line is they let too many Muslims immigrate under the banner of multi-culturalism. Now, Dutch culture may disappear within a century.
Geert Wilders is an assclown and an attention whore. I think he's entitled to his opinions and should be free to speak his mind. He's a one-trick pony though and shouldn't be in politics. A scare-monger and a simpleton. He asks for freedom of speech, but wants it denied to others.
Your bottom line is bullshit and I don't think Dutch culture (whatever it may be) will disppear. Not now, not in the next century, and not in 2525.
As for the movie: if you desperately want to throw 15-20 minutes of your life, watch it. It sucks, it isn't graphically shocking (in my opinion) and it doesn't add anything to the discussion.
