Wake up America: Dutch Filmmaker Theo Van Gogh is Murdered.
By Ali Sina
Today, November 2, 2004, the Americans are voting to elect their president. Osama bin Laden has already issued his threat that those states that vote for Bush will be targeted for terrorist attacks.
Also today, the Dutch are mourning the murder of one of their freethinkers. Theo Van Gogh, a filmmaker who was the great-grandnephew of the painter Vincent van Gogh was shot and stabbed to death on an Amsterdam street after receiving death threats over a movie he made criticizing the treatment of women under Islam.
His assassin was caught after a shootout with police officers that left him wounded in a leg. He is a 26-year-old Muslim man with dual Dutch-Moroccan citizenship.
Police said Van Gogh's killer shot and stabbed his victim and left a note in Arabic on his body. The content of the note is not yet public. The police also declined to comment on reports that Van Gogh’s throat was slashed.
An eyewitness who lives in the neighborhood told the Dutch national broadcaster NOS that she heard six shots and saw a man with a long beard and wearing Islamic garb concealing a gun.
Another witness reported the killer arrived by bicycle and shot Van Gogh as he got out of a car. "The shooter stayed next to him and waited. Waited to make sure he was dead," the witness said.
Filmmaker Theo van Gogh, 47, had been threatened after the August airing of the movie "Submission," which he made with a right-wing Dutch politician, Ayan Hirsi Ali, who had renounced the Islamic faith of her birth.
Two years ago, the Dutch were shocked by the assassination of the Politician Pim Fortuyn, who was an outspoken critic of Islam and an advocate of anti-immigration policies, particularly against the Turks and the Moroccans. He was assassinated by a fellow Dutch, sympathetic to the Muslims
Van Gogh's next movie, scheduled to debut on the Internet in December, was titled "06-05" and was about the May 6, 2002 slaying of Fortuyn.
His short English-language film "Submission," which aired on Dutch television in August, enraged the Netherlands ' Muslim community — including some Muslim women's groups that called its depiction of abuse of women insensitive.
Muslims have always used intimidation and terror to advance their cause. This tradition dates back to the time of Muhammad. Soon after the Prophet immigrated to Medina and found a group of the men believing in him as a new messenger of God and willing to do anything for him, he terrorized the inhabitants of that town with a series of assassinations and killings of his critics. Among his victims were Abu Afak, a man said to be 120 years old and Asma, a poetess and a mother of five small children. Other victims of Muhammad were Ka'b ibn Ashraf, the young and handsome leader of a Jewish tribe in Medina who dared to compose poetries critical of Muhammad and his successor, Abu Rafi who also dared to speak out his mind.
Those assassinations shocked and enraged the Medinans but they had their intended effect. People were frightened to speak out and to criticize Muhammad and his cult. Fear is a powerful human emotion. Through fear, even those who did not like Islam pretended friendship with Muslims and accompanied Muhammad in his raids.
One such man was Abdullah ibn Ubay, a leader of Medina . He was a powerful man but he feared his life and despite criticizing Muhammad secretly, he pretended to be a Muslim. Muhammad was aware of Abdullah’s lack of faith and called him hypocrite. The son of Abdullah was a believer. He approached Muhammad and begged him that if it is his wish to assassinate his father, please let him to do it. “If you ask another man to assassinate my father” he reasoned, “I may kill that assassin out of filial piety and revenge and go to hell for killing a Muslim. So if it is your wish that my father should be put to death, please allow me to fulfill that wish and gain the pleasure of Allah”.
Pim Fortuyne and Theo Van Gogh are only two of the countless victims of Islam who paid with their lives for speaking out and warning their fellow citizens of this cult of death and terror.
Muslims have always used terror to achieve their goal. Through intimidation and terror they have succeeded to become one of the major religions of the world. They will not abandon terror, because apart from deceit, terror is the only way they know how to advance their faith. Terror has worked for them in the past and it will continue to work in the future. It worked in Spain when through casting terror in Madrid' subways they forced the Spaniards to vote for a leftwing government that was more sympathetic to Islam and more accommodating of their wishes.
That is why Osama bin Laden came out of his hole to tell the Americans whom to vote. He threatened them that he would target their states if Bush is elected in that state.
Faith Freedom International is deeply saddened by the loss of Theo Van Gogh. He was a courageous man and another victim of Islamic madness. More are certain to follow him until the brainless leftist PCists wake up. More human sacrifices are necessary so people like John Kerry and his mindless supporters realize that by “reaching out to Muslims” they are playing with fire and endangering this planet.
Over 80% of Muslims in America are going to vote for Kerry. Osama ordered the Americans to not vote for Bush or suffer the consequences. The terrorists in Iraq have increased their activities to intimidate the Americans and reduce the chances of Bush's reelection. The Iranian Mullahs, Arafat and all the enemies of America have said it very publicly that they want Kerry in the White House. At these last hours all I can do is to pray that the Americans get some sense of reality and wake up from their foolish dreams.
Remember America, if you vote for Kerry you are voting for Islam. That is the greatest gift you can give the Muslim terrorists. Only one word can describe this anti Bush madness and that is idiocy. This is a mistake that you won’t be able to undo. This is one mistake that will make you regret for ever. Don’t be a fool. Say no to the Muslims appeaser John Kerry. Say no to the candidate of the terrorists.
Dutch to rally for freedom of expression
Dutch are expected to rally tonight and on Saturday in Dam Square, Amsterdam for freedom of expression in Holland. Please join the rally and take others along. Muslims will sure be there with their placards claiming "this is not the true Islam". Deceit is part of Islamic propaganda.
I urge the Dutch to not allow these apologists of the terrorists mock the sacrifice of Van Gogh and get away with more lies. Please carry your own placards and banners and say:

Islam: The Religion of Pieces (TM) alert
Big Deal! The dutch want to hold a rally. Why not join us and help us kill islamo fascists? Why not help us and exert pressure on your neighbors, francesucks and germanybites?
I know I should care but I really dont. Im all cared out. If the dutch cant keep the muslim hordes in check..what am I to do?
I just sit back and clean ole billy and wait for the freepers to give me the word.
This is the 19th time this has been posted today. Search is your friend.
The Dutch are supporting Pres. Bush and the war on terror and they're part of the coalition in Iraq. The Dutch have real big problems with the slow islamisation of their country.
Amazingly, at the CA college U/state, are feminists who went on and on and on about the "oppression" of women under Islam. But guess what? These feminists see George Bush as the "evil" one, and continue to come up with excuses for these Islamic oppressors and murderers.
I wonder if these college feminists, if it ever occurs to them, that what was done to Mr. Theo Van Gogh, could be also done to them?
No. I don't think this even crosses their minds.
Just emulating the "exemplary" life of Muhammad. As the Koran commands them to do. The most perfect man who lead the most perfect life.
We must learn to celebrate their diversity. Who is to say our way of thinking is right and theirs wrong? It is wrong to close our borders. It is wrong to racially profile. The murderous Islamic scumbag was just expressing his frustration at being oppressed by Europeans.
Have I missed anything?
Kill the Islamic murderer and skin and leave his carcass impaled at the edge of town.
"Freedom of Expression" rally, feh.
How about a rally to stop all further muslim immigration, closing down all madrasses, and forcing all resident muslims to take mandatory classes in dutch & a loyalty oath?
"The Dutch are supporting Pres. Bush and the war on terror and they're part of the coalition in Iraq. The Dutch have real big problems with the slow islamisation of their country."
Similar for Denmark.
It's NOT wake up America...it's WAKE UP the rest of the non-muslim world....sheesh...
waiting for this in FRANCE, then i will laugh...this is what the world has brought on itself again (as in ww2)
Somehow I'll go to work at NATO tomorrow morning and some European will say "Well its all your (read: the US') fault this guy got shot."
No matter how many signs there are the Europeans still live in a state of denial...even when things occur in their own cities. They think everything is linked to Iraq - they've somehow forgotten that history did not start in March of 2003.
I sure do hope Bush wins, not only for my own reasons/beliefs but also for the fact that it would drive this continent absolutely crazy!!!
Anyway, to stay on target here I guess I'd have to say Islam is continually proving to be intolerant of other opinions...
"I just sit back and clean ole billy and wait for the freepers to give me the word."
i thought it was just me ;)
I work in a building that has at least four Muslim women working there and always come in full garb, one even uses the full cover up IE eyeballs only.
As I am a old time fascist pig I always allow women any woman to get on or off the elevator before I do.
Two of the four give me a dirty look every time.
My self Poll suggests that half of Muslim women liked to dominated!
Throw the throat-slitters out of this country now!
Considering we're talking about an EU nation here my guess is that the raghead will get five years max. As long as he promises to be more sensitive in the furture that is.
