Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders defended his views about Islam in an intense and extensive interview with The Daily Caller.
“Because I spoke out against the ideology called Islam already for almost 10 years now, I was marked for death,” Wilders, who was in Washington to promote his latest book, “Marked for Death: Islam’s War against the West and Me,” told TheDC.
“If you speak the truth — and I believe people should speak the truth about Islam — you pay a very heavy price.”
Islamist clerics issued fatwas calling for Wilders death after he began speaking out against Islam. He was even taken to court in his own country for what he said about the faith. Today, he is constantly surrounded by security.
“This is the price you have to pay if you speak out against Islam,” he said.
Wilders doesn’t believe in moderate Islam. He believes that Islam is a violent ideology and the Quran should be banned.
“Don’t let anybody fool you who says Islam can be moderated,” he argued. “It will not be moderated in a million years.”
