Author Geert Wilders: No Difference Between Islam, Radical Islam

Controversial Dutch politician and author Geert Wilders is speaking out against Islam, but unlike most Westerners he does not draw a distinction between Islam and radical Islam, but claims that they are the same.

Wilders is a member of the Dutch parliament and founder of the Party for Freedom. He said outspokenness about Islam has taken a toll on his life. He has been threatened with death, been taken court, and been banned from other European countries.

"Anybody who dares to speak out against this ideology called Islam will pay a heavy price," he in an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV. "I lived with my wife for six months in a prison cell for security reasons. We didn't commit any crime. We lived in army barracks and safe houses. I always say if I spoke up, which I'm not planning to do, but just for argument's sake, if I spoke out against Christianity, all those things would not have happened. We use the pen and, unfortunately, they use the ax."

A man who is strongly disliked.

But Geert Wilders was never convicted of any crime. He didn’t break any law.

He was, however, convicted in the court of public opinion. His life was – and is – under constant threat.

And because his views are not popular with the elite, the elite have left him exposed to the threats and the hatred. They have not defended his right to free speech.
