The story A London-based Web site has dropped a Dutch lawmaker's film that features disturbing images of terrorist acts juxtaposed with verses from the Quran to paint Islam as a threat to Western society, citing threats to its staff.

LiveLeak.com said in a statement Friday that it decided to remove the film a day after it was posted "following threats to our staff of a very serious nature."

Attempts to reach LiveLeak for further comment were unsuccessful. However, Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkanende said the government was concerned that Geert Wilders' film "Fitna" could provoke a violent backlash

One more victim of the Religion of Peace! Way to sack up LiveLeak!

They should publish every one of the threats.

liveleak is a great site. that being said, what a horde of spineless a-holes. that also being said, “fitna” is disappearing off the ‘net in record time.

‘Tis a chilling film, one well worth watching. 15 minutes in length, it says it all.

It — and not “An Inconvenient Truth” — should be required viewing for all schoolchildren in the United States (which is, as we might remember, still at war with militant islam).

I took the precaution of downloading a copy last nite, as I expect it will disappear from other sites, too.

Its gone viral. Its too late to put that genie back in the bottle. Its been grabbed off Liveleak and is now available on tens of thousands of servers around the Internet. "Fitna" will remain available for downloading and viewing.

We need to play pass around on the internet.

As soon as on site takes it down from threats another should put it up until the moosies give up.

I have server space and as soon as I figure out how to host it, I will.

It's all over google and on yahoo. It's not disappearing anywhere.

Too late. I've already downloaded it and saved it for posterity.

I will spread it around and may host it somewhere if I get the urge.

Yet liberals who like seeing a crucifix soaking in a jar of urine, are silent. They would rather worry about and punish some North Dakota college students for mocking B. Hussein Obama, just as the Muslims want to punish others who disagree with their cult.

Link please?

your data-mining techniques must be better than mine.

A dozen of these Breaking News threads. Probably everybody who might possibly care already knows.

that's a site that has links to multiple sites hosting the video.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

None yet. Though I am trying to upload to Youtube as we speak. It may not last long if it makes it.

I downloaded it from Liveleak in .flv format so you need a Flash Video player to view it.

Lesson to Islam--threaten to do bodily harm to the Euros and they will cave (almost) every time.

Europe is peopled with abject cowards. We should pull all of our troops out of there immediately. They've hidden behind the skirts of America for too long.

Possibly not. When I already know about something, I’ve found it easy to scroll by threads. Try it sometime.

But, many time additional information comes up in the additional posts.
