The Dutch MP Geert Wilders who is the leader of the right-wing Dutch Peoples Party has stated that he will release his new anti-Islam film entitled Forbidden on March 1st. Remember, this film was announced last year and it was due to come out in january, but had since been delayed.
The Dutch government has already been threatened by Iran to make sure that this film is not released. But the Dutch are sticking to their ideals of freedom of expression and have made no move to abr the film's release. This is expected to be a repeat situation of the Mohammed cartoons that spakred fierce riots in the Islamic world and made Denmark a target of Jihadists. The film is reported to possible feature a scene in which a Koran is being torn apart. The last person to release a film of this nature was the Dutch film maker Theo Van Gogh who was later stabbed to death in Amsterdam by a Muslim attacker. The Dutch government is said to be in a panic over the potential Muslim reaction to this film. Geert Wilders has been warned that he will likely have to leave the Netherlands as his security may not be able to be guaranteed there.
Here is a a believed teaser trailer of the film. This is one of the two videos that led to Pakistan banning youtube.
In other news, John Edwards no longer has the best hair in politics.
