31. What do you want from Londonistan?
Joo ,   Eurabia   (02.12.09)
But really. Their scholars are boycotting Jewish professors and promoting Jihad, others are acting. Remember who was behind Mike's Place bombing in Tel Aviv in 2003 and in Mombai attack in 2008? Right, Brits. And please don't tell me they were "Muslims from Britain". They were UK citizens, killing people thousands km away of UK in the name of God. You need to watch carefully who are modern Britons that making big time : BBC, Guardian, Global Jihad...
32. We forsook the G-d of the Bible.
Remnant ,   UK   (02.12.09)
33. #7 - in addition
Observer   (02.12.09)
Islam has only one way to show its "superiority" - by threatening and killing its opponents and just random people. IT'S TOO OBVIOUS! Islam isn't tolerant religion. IT'S TOO OBVIOUS! Islam hates and rapes democracy. IT'S TOO OBVIOUS! Islam manipulates and speculates with democratic principles. IT'S TOO OBVIOUS! Islam have no future in this age without foreign technologies and enslaved/hostage nations. IT'S TOO OBVIOUS!
34. Divine justice!
Dani' El ,   SF USA   (02.12.09)
It is perfect Divine justice that all the nations that tormented Israel for centuries are now infested with muslim vermin. Those who thought they could throw Israel to the wolves, will be devoured by those same wolves! They dig a pit and lay a snare, only to find themselves trapped in it. Baruch HaShem!
35. Good Bye forever UK
Barry ,   Tokyo   (02.12.09)
Hello Englarabia you cowardly hypocrites!
36. Wilders is inciting hate and It will ruin British harmony.
Mr. English   (02.12.09)
First of all freedom of speech in Europe is already dead. My case is on holocaust debate in Germany or other European nations. A lot of revisionist a jail for debating holocaust. So, please stop the hypocrisy about freedom of speech. Wilder's incite to ban the holy Quran, and his messages is clearly saying persecuted all Muslim in the globe. You can criticize Islam in respectful manner, but you cant incite hatred to ban holy books or define Muslim persecution as normal thing. How about ban on the Torah or bible? I know you will be angry about anti-sametism on ban on Torah. I don't recommend ban on any holy book, but lets respect our beliefs. Freedom of religion must be respect. I also don't recommend Muslims incite anti-sametism, respecting eachother will bring end on extremism on both sides.
37. Wilders, I can't speak for all Jews, but we're with you
Brian ,   Skokie, USA   (02.12.09)
38. remember the murder of theo van gogh
issa yacoub ,   usa   (02.12.09)
the european union should resurrect the spanish inquisition and deport all muslims to saudia arabia or else. take it from an arab guy the word LOVE or peace does not exist in the quran,only kill the jews and infidels christians,muhamad himself supervised the murder of 900 jews in madina located in todays saudia
39. Why do you protest bishop williamson's views?
Mohammed ,   Jeddah   (02.12.09)
if you believe in freedom of speech? hypocrites indeed.
40. #9 Was it Koran that drove Christian Lebanese to massacre...
Someone ,   Somewhere   (02.12.09)
Palestinians in Sabra and Shatilla in collaboration with Ariel Sharon? Was it also Koran that drove Western Christians for bloody crusader attacks for centuries? Your thinking is simply sick.
41. Cameron. #20
KO ,   London   (02.12.09)
At least, dear sir, we haven't got a rabid pro-abortionist, pro-homosexual at the helm. I AM HONESTLY SHOCKED AT THE RAPID DECLINE OF THE US. And it doesn't give me any pleasure at all.
42. to 17 freedom of speech does not permits to scream fire
faithfreedom.org ,   israel   (02.12.09)
where there isn't any. Wilder screams fire where fire is there. David Irving, Bishop Williamson misuse freedom of speech to spread disinformation on event that did happen and supported by evidences. phobia is unreasonable fear. Islam proved to be a real threat and it is reasonable to fear it. so there is no such thing as Islamophobia. Islamophobia it is anti thesis to evidances supported otherwise.
43. Rober #2 UK already is!
Vicky ,   Ashkelon Israel   (02.12.09)
44. Look whos talking
Derick ,   New York, NY   (02.12.09)
Wow, what a hypocrit bunch of Jew you are all. You dont let Europe say anything against holocaust and cry anti-semitism when merely people question, your killing of Palestenians and occupying their legal land, and now the same Jews saying what, WHAT? I'm horrified by postings on this forum.
45. This page is sick.
Someone ,   Somewhere   (02.12.09)
While attacking Koran and Islam as a religion you must think twice. There are many Jews who have done many wrong things such as Baruch Goldstein, Kahane, Yigal Amir. There are far too many Christians who have done awful things such as crusaders, Nazis, KKK, Spanish conquerers and many, many others. When they did it, they referred their religion too. So Shall we now blame Judaism and Christianity for inciting discrimination, hatred and violence. You really have to think! Koran or Bible or any other books have nothing to do with it, it is the sick minded people who are full of hatred. Unfortunately, I see a lot of them on this page.
46. How do I feel ?
Yoel   (02.12.09)
I feel VERY BAD because people who criticize muslims cannot be free. People who criticize their behavior are banned from visiting areas full of arabs? it already happenef for someone in Um-el-Fahem for a well-known israeli person, and today in London to another well-known person. This means freedom is in danger, and it became urgent to react before it's too late !
47. Dani'El # 34.
The 11th Man ,   London   (02.12.09)
It is inadvisable and unwise to use Holy Writ and the language of the Siddur to clothe your ungodly spirit. 'You know not what manner of spirit you are of'.
48. Thankyou Yuhanna. #30
The 11th Man ,   London   (02.12.09)
Your kind words are gratefully received.
49. A question of tottering structures, #41?
Cameron ,   USA   (02.12.09)
I gamble on my own country to a vastly higher degree based upon what I've seen on various visits to Oxford & London, KO. From Chaucer to Caliphate with a mere whimper from British lips. The shameful dishonor of it.
50. To #42
Londoner   (02.12.09)
"phobia is unreasonable fear. Islam proved to be a real threat and it is reasonable to fear it. so there is no such thing as Islamophobia. Islamophobia it is anti thesis to evidances supported otherwise." David Irving and Bishop Williamson was expressing their views on holocaust, but they are punish. They have the right to have freedom of expression. OK, how about there is no such thing as antisemitism? My main point is you can't have one-side point of view on freedom of expression. Don't make fool of your self for making such ignorant comment on islamophobia. Your only speaking to support Wilder's anti-islam view as freedom of expression but rejecting holocaust debate in europe. Many revisionist are looking forward for holocaust investigation but they at risk to loose freedom of speech.
51. # 9 not surprising to hear
(02.12.09)
Not surprising at all to hear hatread and violence from a Christian Lebanese who probably enthusiastically supported and participated into killing of Palestinians in Sabra and Shatilla with the help of Sharon. Was that also Koran drove you to kill innocent people then? Or was it the hatred deep inside you?!
52. What about holocaust deniers?
Ali ,   UK   (02.12.09)
David Irving was jailed for three years for denying the holocaust. In fact, you can be legally persecuted in the UK for denying the holocaust. So why shouldnt the same apply to Geert Wilders who criticizes and offends an islamic pillar, the Quran? I think the UK has treated both offenders equally.
53. Liberal Eurabia is afraid the truth will get out
David ,   Boston, USA   (02.12.09)
That they support inciters of hatred, racism, repressing freedom. Liberals are morally debunk.. England is supporting hatred in this action instead of the truth. How sad. Let him in. Let him speak.
54. This is OPPOSITE of HOlocaust Deniers
David ,   Boston, USA   (02.12.09)
This is about the truth. The Holocaust Happened, 6 million Jews, including my great grandparents were murdered. He was to talk about Islam. Let the truth out. Holocaust deniers arent about opinions, but about ignoring facts, like much in the Islamic world today unfortuntely. Both need to learn history and read about facts.
55. #17:"Public order issue"? More like hypocricy
Arie ,   BaGolan   (02.12.09)
The brits have allowed in, without reservation, muslim clerics calling for a violent end to western values and the rise of the caliphate; the brit 'prince' walks around with swastikas denigrating Blacks, Indians, and Pakistanis; the brit archbishop condemns christianity for its treatment of islam;brit schoolkids are punished for not bowing to mecca! The brits with their usual freedoms...for the select!
56. No 5 read please
Dani ,   Israel   (02.12.09)
I'd like to talk to you, as you are a Dutch citizen. I want to here about your opinions please contact my email.
57. to english guy (17)
tiki ,   belgium   (02.12.09)
If it wouldn't be so tragic, it would be funny. Wilders only tells the FACTS Williamson/Irving deny the FACTS. Maybe ignorant people like you will learn something, but i doubt it.
58. Why do we protest the bishop...
Jukka Moisio ,   Älta,Sweden   (02.12.09)
re: 39. Mohammed ! ...and not you, for example, right ? Do not worry, though. I suppose the dummies in Europe might, sooner or later, begin to connect the dots between Jew-hating bishops and Jew-hating mullahs ! As well as, any people in the world of such malaise. Who knows, maybe you yourself feel inclined to be included in that list. I mean your own society isn't exactly the prime example in the area of freedom of speech, don't you think ?
59. #49 The fat lady hasn't sung yet.
KO ,   London   (02.12.09)
You don't get a knowledge of what is at 'grassroots' by a visit to Oxford(!) & London(!!) Like yourself, I am hoping that there's still some life left in the old lady yet; US & GB. Maybe, sadly, you're right, time alone will tell. However, I do get tired of the 'crowing' attitude of some of the comments. I believe that there could be some understandable jealousy toward Britain because of its' amazing history and this is bringing out an unhealthy and gloating pleasure. Incidentally, my own personal opinion is that we are suffering the consequences of turning our back on the God of the Bible. But that's another story! Thankyou for your reply.
60. "DEATH OF A PRINCESS",ALLOWED?
