Audacity of Truth
Fitna pulled off of LiveLeak
Yesterday I blogged about Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders’ just-released 15 minute film Fitna, which was posted on numerous video sites, removed from some sites, and reposted at other video sites. LiveLeak was one of the few multimedia sites that kept up the anti-Islamofascism video instead of deleting it everytime a user posted it.
Tonight we learn that LiveLeak decided to take the film off its site due to serious threats:
Following threats to our staff of a very serious nature, and some ill informed reports from certain corners of the British media that could directly lead to the harm of some of our staff, Liveleak.com has been left with no other choice but to remove Fitna from our servers.
This is a sad day for freedom of speech on the net but we have to place the safety and well being of our staff above all else. We would like to thank the thousands of people, from all backgrounds and religions, who gave us their support. They realised LiveLeak.com is a vehicle for many opinions and not just for the support of one.
Perhaps there is still hope that this situation may produce a discussion that could benefit and educate all of us as to how we can accept one anothers culture.We stood for what we believe in, the ability to be heard, but in the end the price was too high.
I rec’d this tip from Michael van der Galien, who runs the Dutch blog Poligazette. However, as of this writing, if you click on that link you will see that the site has been suspended. Jimmie at The Sundries Shack, who sometimes blogs at Poligazette, heard from Michael and both of them believe the blog was suspended because Poligazette, though not endorsing the content, supported the release of the film and was critical of the Dutch government’s reaction to it.
In the meantime, Gates of Vienna has posted the English translation of the transcript to Fitna. You can read it here.

For anyone who wonders what life would be like under an Obama or Clinton II administration, the Fitna fiasco is a pretty good example. Both He Whose Middle Name Must Not Be Mentioned and Hilly the Hun are in a macabre competition to see who can surrender the fastest to al Qaeda in Iraq.
But if you are a conservative radio talk show host in America, they will spare no effort to censor you.
Sick bastards. I noticed nothing in that transcript that suggested anything other than world domination as a reason for their savagery. Not American bases in Saudi Arabia, not Amercian foreign policy. No suggestion of anything that would compell them to leave us alone. Why don’t libs believe this? (As if I didn’t know)
Excellent plan!!!
Because, as we all know, appeasement has always worked throughout history.
I’ve been to youtube and watch the flame war of posts going on with each of the video links. Its really sad to see our country is unable to do anything more to stand up to this threat. The UN and EU once again show that they are going to capitulate to a monster that will crush them under foot till it get what it wants.
And our government is too busy fighting over whose going to make this country into a Socialist paradise first. Its a sad day. Its a sad day indeed.
So much for the “Religion” of “Peace”.
The fact of the matter is that islam (as practiced by those who advocate the literal teachings of the koran) is incompatible to western thought. As for Europe, all is lost. I cannot foresee an event which might wake Europe from its slumber to the advancing monster which is islam. It will be necessary (once again) for us to save Europe from the clutches of totalitarianism.
