Web site for anti-Koran film blocked Network Solutions suspends public access

Web site for anti-Koran film blocked Network Solutions suspends public access amid Dutch controversy updated 8:57 p.m. ET, Sun., March. 23, 2008 AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - A Web site where a Dutch lawmaker was promoting an upcoming film that criticizes the Koran, Islam's holy book, has been suspended by its U.S. hosting service. The site had shown Geert Wilders' film's title, "Fitna," the words "Coming Soon" and an image of a gilded Koran. Now it shows a note that the company is investigating whether the site violates the firm's terms of service. Wilders has not described the 15-minute movie, due to be released by March 31, in detail but has said it will underscore his view that Islam's holy book is "fascist." Dutch officials fear the movie could spark violent protests in Muslim countries, similar to those two years ago after the publication of cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad in a Danish newspaper. Wilders said he would release his movie on the Internet after television stations refused to air it. "In this situation with the dialogue that's happening throughout the world we've made the choice to suspend the site as of last night," said Susan Wade, spokeswoman for Network Solutions. "This site is suspended so people can't see the content right now, but the customer still has access to their site. They can make whatever changes are necessary as we complete our investigation." Wilders, who lives under police protection due to death threats, could not immediately be reached for comment Sunday. "How many ways are there left for me to be worked against?" he was quoted saying Saturday night by Dutch press agency ANP. "If necessary, I'll go hand out DVDs personally on the Dam," he said, referring to Amsterdam's central square.

Islam's holy book is "fascist." we all know that!

Call us 1-800-333-7680 network solutions -who the hell are you to tell the free world what we should watch!!!!!!!

He should upload the film to google video, and we can download it, cut it into two parts and re-upload it a thousand times to you tube and other video sharing sites...they can't all be shut down.

I also called Network Solutions, and told them they lost a potential customer...if they don't backtrack.

Wow! This made it to MSNBC? That’s a good sign. Maybe even some of the mass media is beginning to realize that the deadly Islamic silence could be imposed on them as well.

Islam’s “holy book” is simply one man’s justification for the sensual, earthly, barbaric, sinful life that he wanted to live.

I can’t figure out why people are not more upset about this, this is caving in to the islamofascists plain and simple, I wonder what “offensive” things they are hosting

Google Video won’t do, Try to find Fitna in Google, they block the site since it was made...

Network Solutions product “go to my pc” is a heavy advertiser on Boortz and Laura Ingrahm. I wonder if they have heard of this?
