Geert Wilders Defends Trump's Immigration Ban

Although leaders of the mainstream parties in Europe have condemned Donald Trump's immigration ban on people from seven Islamic countries, one very prominent Dutch political leader has a completely different opinion. Party for Freedom (PVV) leader Geert Wilders has praised and defended Trump's executive order, explaining that it's the only way to protect America -- and other Western countries -- from terrorists who try to use the refugee crisis to smuggle jihadists into Europe and the United States.

"I am very happy, very surprised, with politicians like Donald J. Trump. You know, it's a kind of refreshment, a fresh air in a room where the windows have been closed for too long."

He continues:

"We have in Europe, in Holland, in the rest of the world, we have especially a lot of politicians who are unable to deal with the mass immigration that we have faced in the last decades. And here there is a politician who does not only keep his promises and fulfills his promises in the election campaign, but who has done more to beat the mass immigration in two weeks time than the whole European governments in their whole existence."

Although Wilders is universally described as "far right" by foreign media, his PVV party is leading by a large margin. According to the latest polls, PVV will get approximately 35 seats in the 150-seats Dutch Parliament after the elections of March 15. The second largest party in the polls is the VVD (which is currently in power) with a mere 22 seats. If that does indeed up being the result, Wilders would likely become the Netherlands' next prime minister.

In the last few days, Wilders has regularly defended Trump and his policies.

Wilders will not be PM. The pattern has been that even if a rightist party is the biggest vote getter (but not an absolute majority) the other parties will refuse to form a coalition with the rightists and will unite against them.

Nations have the responsibility to preserve the quality of life its citizens deserve — through their labor, heritage, sacrifices, and birthright. The location, ethnicity, race are irrelevant. But when nations’ appointed leaders betray such preservations, those leaders should be no less than expelled.

Geert understands that there can be no moderate muslim. Islam is built upon the words of a rapist murderer, and any change to the body of that piece of work would result in charges of blasphemy and summary execution. Islam is the perfect killing machine.
