The Lights Are Going Out All Over Europe (Wilders Second 'hate speech trial')
gates of vienna | Monday, February 07, 2011 | Baron Bodissey

Below is the speech given by Geert Wilders on the opening day of his new trial on “hate speech” charges in Amsterdam. Many thanks to Vlaamse Leeuwin for the translation:

"The lights are going out all over Europe. All over the continent where our culture flourished and where man created freedom, prosperity and civilization. The foundation of the West is under attack everywhere.

Are Europeans hearing this, or are the geldings in charge censoring his message?

Odd folks, these multiculturalists.

They stand in support of the very folks who will either enslave them or cut off their heads. It’s like a form of masochism; hurt me, I like it.

There are two basic problems with Europe:

1. They have become and are way too socialist

2. Their lax immigration policies allowed for the importation of terrorists, Muslims, extremists, radicals and jihadists which are trying to bring Sharia Law to the sovereign countries that make up Europe.

In a sane world, Wilders would be E.U. President

“This trial is not about me. It is about something much greater. Freedom of speech is not the property of those who happen to belong to the elites of a country. It is an inalienable right, the birthright of our people. For centuries battles have been fought for it, and now it is being sacrificed to please a totalitarian ideology.”

Even more than the devil worshiping Islamic followers of a desert pedophilic bandit, liar and murderer, those “cultural elites” are our REAL enemy. Destroy them and their ideology and Islam will retreat back to the desert wastes where Satan spawned it.

Brilliant speech. I’m glad there are at least a few voices left in Europe that speak such truths. Tragic that he is being prosecuted for speech. Tragic that we’ve allowed the proliferation of “hate” crimes here in the U.S., because criminalization of speech is only a short step away. We already are well down that path with private enterprises and the media ganging up to make sure anyone who even remotely utters unapproved words and phrases loses his/her livelihood.

One day he may join the likes of Charles Martel and Jan Sobieski who turned back the tide of Islam in their times.

Instrumental in stemming the Islamic tide in Europe were:

Charles Martel
Jon Sobieski

May Geert Wilders join this august list. Europe cries out for a man of steel to stand between them and the fires of oppression and slavery.

“In a sane world, Wilders would be E.U. President”

Wish Glenn Beck understood that.
He owes Wilders a major apology.

Doesn’t he realize that Wilders IS the Glenn Beck of
Europe ? - only braver

Political Correctness is the death knell of freedom.
It is insidious rot from within.

Why would any society ( ours included ) want someone to tell them what to say or not say? And make it a crime even !

Anyone notice if John King and CNN are continuing to tone it down and muzzle themselves?

Even sadder....people on here think Glenn Beck is a conservative!

Unfortunately, too many who claim to be conservative try to silence people like Geert Wilders, Robert Spencer (America’s Geert Wilders), and others who point out the threat Islam is

Anyone who states “Islam is a Religion of Peace” supports Islamic Terror, and, is aiding and abetting Islam.

Political Correctness is the death knell of freedom.

That goes well with this:

Multiculturalism is national suicide, and political correctness is the cyanide capsule.

I am not from Europe but can tell you some libs that live there say they are "excited" what the future will be like with the new immigrants.

libs are very narrow minded they think of immigrants and the 'change' they bring is limited to the new types of foods and entertainment they bring. not the reality of a theocracy.
