121. It was the British that went in there and created it.
Barry ,   Londonistan, UK   (06.21.10)
Jordan is Palestine. Who the hell asked Winston Churchill to go in there and draw those boundaries. Why is it that any country on this earth that wants to do anything always has to check with the British first? So Jordan is there because they say so? To hell with them. Jordan is Palestine - and it always was. And while we're at it maybe they can return Kurdistan to the Kurds as well.

endure ,   Tennessee USA   (06.21.10)
This guy is great! Would he consider a part time job running the USA and straightening out our problems? We seem to be leaderless at the time. Any ideas on ending the destruction of the Gulf of Mexico?

You wrote: "We seem to be leaderless at the time. Any ideas on ending the destruction of the Gulf of Mexico......?" You are not leaderless. You have an evil leader! He knows exactly where he is leading America. He is leading America into the pit. Ideas? How about purging the evil from your midst? What is wrong with the American people? Are you nuts?
128. Charles #126: You are distorting history
(06.21.10)
In the beginning, yes, the Nazis endorsed ethnic cleansing; the expulsion of the Jews from Germany. Just as European Christian nations historically dealt with and treated their Jewish citizens. When the Nazis saw the world was indifferent to the plight of, and the persecution of Germany's Jews, they opted for mass-extermination. Wilders has advocated nothing of the sort. Wilders consistently has said Holland's culture should be based on "Christianity, Judaism and Humanism." This is fascist Charles? This is what Hitler and the Nazis advocated? Wilders maintains, Holland should not be tolerant of the intolerant. Islamofascists are intolerant. Earth to Charles. Hello. Anyone home?
129. Thank You Holland!
Dave J ,   USA   (06.21.10)
Mr Wilders has been slandered by the mainstream press, but anyone familiar with him understands he is a courageous supporter of individual freedom and a true democrat in the best sense of the word. Anyone linking him to antisemitism is a LIAR. May Geert be blessed with further success and shalom in all his endeavors!
130. Geert Wilders
Menachem Chazan ,   Canada   (06.21.10)
The Palestinians are the victims of the Middle East Despots' agenda that prioritizes the perpetuation of their regimes, through the elimination of Democracy , over the establishment of another Palestinian Democracy in the Middle East. Geert has it right. The Hashemites are a minority in Jordan; the Palestinians are the majority and should move to request King Abdhulla to relinquish his throne in behalf of the Palestinians and the peace of the Middle East.

As i lived most of my life in western Europe , i'm maybe more aware of this kind of people . Geert Wilders is now OPENLY supporting a palestinian State in Jordan . Does this mean that he "loves" Jews ? Do you know , i wrote it already , that only 2 % of Dutch Jews voted for him ? Don't you think that they KNOW this kind of people ? Exept the French Le Pen , who has already more than once showed his antisemitism , other extreme right wing leaders know that being antisemite is not "in" , it's not seen favorably [ it's so in Belgium too where Filip De Winter wanted to have Jewish votes , and this was opposed strongly by Jewish leaders there . ] Of course , for the moment he did not present any anti Jewish feelings . But wait , when he will have "finished" with the muslims .......And that is something i'm saying since many years And don't forget , he got only 24 seats out of 150 , and as far as known to me , he will not be able to come in the next Dutch governement . So he can talk and talk .
133. Some "people" don't want to understand
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.21.10)
134. Dave 129 . Do you understand the Dutch tongue ?
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.21.10)
Probably not , so being familiar with his views ......Do you think that Dutch Jews are'nt familiar with his person ? Only 2 % of them voted for him
135. Charles #128: You are distorting history.
Steve Klein   (06.21.10)
Sorry, sometimes in my haste, I forget to include my name. I am by no means anonymous. You intentionally or through ignorance distort our history at the hands of the Nazis when you try to link Wilders with Hitler and the Nazis. Wilders has no fascist tendencies. Not that I can see. Not that you have demonstrated here. Quite the opposite. Wilders is trying to preserve his country and his country's way of life. Wilders is not advocating the persecution of Holland's peaceful Jewish minority, or any peaceful minority, unlike the Nazis. What you appear to advocate is national suicide in the face of the global jihad. If Europeans, Americans, even the Jews were to heed your advice, they / we will have no future; only dhimmitude, humiliation and subjugation or worse. You do us Jews a disservice.
136. Charles: #132
Steve   (06.21.10)
I have learned in life, as a Jew, never say never. I never say, "The man is a great friend of the Jews. He will NEVER turn on us." I will not say this. That having been said, Wilders has been consistent in his support for Israel, for Israel's self-defense, for Israel's Jews, unlike US President Barack Hussein Obama. Could Wilders change? Sure. For now, I take him at his word. I don't care where you lived most of your life. Some of us have studied the history of anti-Semitism in Europe. Some of us have studied the rise of Nazism. Wilders lived and worked on a Kibbutz in Israel for two years. He has reportedly visited Israel some 40 times in the past 25 years in order to show solidarity. Has David Duke done any of this? No. I just finished listening (over the weekend) to a on-line video of David Duke castigating Kentucky Candidate for US Senate, Rand Paul for not standing strong against Rachel Maddow (MSNBC), in an interview (Duke calls Maddow a Jew; she is Catholic) whereby (Paul) exhibited his racism. Duke is an out and out Jew-hater. Wilders on the other hand, misses no opportunity to stand with Israel publicly. He rarely misses an opportunity to state his strong support for Israel. I've not seen this from haters like Barack Hussein Obama who some 78% of my fellow Jews in the US support and who you might support because he is on the far left.
137. No Logic Allowed
potvin ,   Toronto, Canada   (06.21.10)
Geert Wilders makes too much sense therefore he will be ignored and demonized.
138. Charles 132: Do you know 78% of Amer. Jews voted for Obama?
Steve   (06.21.10)
You wrote: "Do you know.... that only 2% of Dutch Jews voted for him ? Don't you think that they KNOW this kind of people ?" No. Not really. 78% of American Jews voted for this Jew-hater in the White House. What are you proving to me except that we Jews have a collective screw loose? After 9/11, like many, I began studying Islam, the history of Islam, the prophet of Islam, the Qur'an, etc. These are very troubling and violent teachings. Because there are intelligent men and women in the West like Wilders who see this aggressive, imperialist, expansionist, ideology, or religious tradition (what have you) as a threat to our way of life, does not "necessarily" mean intelligent men and women (many of them former Muslims; now atheists) are a threat to the Jews as you would have us believe. Any thinking Jew knew Mr. B. Hussein Obama is a Jew-hater who has deep sympathies for the Jews' jihadist enemies. Why does he constantly condemn Israel and stand up for our enemies? He ran with Jew-haters, jihadists, bigots and racists like Jeremiah Wright, Rashid Khalidi, Nation of Islam jihadists, etc., his entire adult life. Only a deep-seated Jew-hater tells Jews we have no right to build and live in Jerusalem or in other parts of our historic homeland Charles. Yet 78% of American Jews vote for and support haters like this man and (if you are correct) only 2% of Holland's Jews voted for a man who defends Israel's right to self-defense.
139. Steve , i don't DISTORD history
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.21.10)
Read what i wrote : in the BEGINNING .......And i don't link Wilders to the nazis , you distord my writing . I know Wilder's History . As a boy of 17 he had not enough money to go to Australia , so he went to Israel and worked in a kibbuts . I know also that his grand grand father on mother's side , was a Levin Meijers , a current Jewish name in the Netherlands [ NRC Handelsblad , in Dutch ] . But tell me why the Dutch people only voted with 2% for him ? are they all leftist ? [ NIW poll , in Dutch too ] Yes , for the moment he shows his pro Israel views . On the other side someone who is so against muslims , can one day become antisemite too . You see , a racist remains a racist one .
140. the basic truth
bob. ,   US   (06.21.10)
to;44,46 Anton, You are an Anti-Semite without a doubt. You would not see the truth or admit the truth if it hit you on head. We all know that the moslem. religion and its believers in Europe are a group of fifth columnist and when the opportunity comes they would rise and murder every one that does not believe in allah. Every one who is not blind can see what the Moslem terrorists are doing around the world. So really you are to put it mildly you are full of it.
141. #70 Dutch Poll
helen ,   usa   (06.22.10)
Of course Dutch Jews did not vote for him. And I know why. Same reason that American Jews voted for Obama. Very simple explanation: they are clinical idiots beyond any cure.
142. Go Geert Go!
Lene ,   Minnesota   (06.22.10)
It's always good to see someone who's not afraid to speak the truth. Now, if only the rest of Europe would wake up!
143. Geert is bold - and correct!!!
Daniel ,   Los Angeles, USA   (06.22.10)
Gazans and West-Bankers can't manage statehood. They have always failed to govern themselves. They are puppets of terrorist factions. Annex Gaza to Egypt and annex West Bank to Jordan and be done with it!
144. Geert Wilders: Change Jordan's name to Palestine
Reinder ,   Maasmechelen Belgium   (06.22.10)
As former Dutch citizen now living in Belgium I can say that I am very proud to have voted for Geert Wilders last elections. He is one of the few who see islam as it is
145. Geert Wilders and his party
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.22.10)
The CIDI , all of you great "Mevinim" will know what this represents , organised a pre electoral debate : Israel and the Middle East . All the parties , showed up , exept "groen links" [ green left ] and ......Wilders's one . As there are some anti Israel ideas amongst some parties , Wilders , the "pro Israeli" man , should have been there . Maybe that only he is pro Israel , his party not ? An error in my 139 : Why the Dutch people only .....Must Be : why the Dutch JEWS ...
146. Geert Wilders is a hero.
DJ ,   United States   (06.22.10)
I follow his story with admiration and hope that people will realize that what he is doing is very important in the fight to protect our freedoms and way of life against those who would like to see it destroyed.
147. Steve , 138
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.22.10)
I think that Dutch Jews are smart , who know this kind of people . The situation is maybe much different in the USA . When i see some US originated TB's , i have my doubdts about their political knowledge . For you Geert Wilders is a great person because he is against the muslims [ i don't like them either ] If you are logic you must be a supporter of Le Pen , who shares the same anti muslim ideas , but was already condemned for antisemite words . Or of this Vlaams Belang party , in Flanders , Belgioum , also an anti muslim party , who's original "father's" were "nice" nazi collaborators during WWII . Tell me who your friends are , i'll tell you who you are [ not for you specially , but the PVV's succes was acclaimed by both those parties , i think to have seen it somewhere ]
148. Daniel 143 , 100 % IGNORANT
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (06.22.10)
You are a proof of what i think . US people , at least if i can judge them by your writing , are'nt very smart , and don't know anything about what they talk . Annex gaza to Egypt , you wrote . Don't you know that Egypt NEVER wanted them ? That they did not allow them to enter Egypt from 1948 to 67 ? Annex West Bank to Jordan , you wrote . Jordan rejected all her responsability towards this region , they don't want them . And i'm not talking here about the Hundreds of Thousands Israelis who live there . You'll better talk about the weather or your last vacations .....
149. Geert Wilders is brilliant
Arjan ,   Netherlands   (06.22.10)
Love this guy, he says what he thinks. Hope he will be the biggest in the next elections!!
150. Steve # 119
Johan ,   Haifa   (06.22.10)
Thank you Steve for your thoughts, I want to point out that the poeple in Israel and those in Holland have a total different way of analyzing the same event. For Israeli ears what the guy says is great! for the Dutch it is a disaster. Wilders is Dutch and should be treated so. The Israelis do not understand that. Israelis who cheer for Wllders will cause: linkage between Holland and Israel in a political way that will harm the Dutch (Islamist do not need much to do so) and marking the Israelis as tieing themselves with a Dutch extremist will in the end harm the Holland Israel relationship on the poeple level. The dutch will turn their back. O, yes before I forget, Right isn't always wrong overshooting is wrong Johan.
