Protests Over ‘Fitna’ Continue


by Rachael Grant

Dutch flags in Afghanistan have been burned, in protest of a film being released that portrays the Quran as inciting violence, as well as encouraging oppression of homosexuals and women. The Dutch government have asked Geert Wilders to scrap the movie on behalf of their citizens who fear for their safety abroad. Subsequently, a Dutch Cabinet minister postponed his trip to Somalia because of threats that have been directly linked to the film.

‘Fitna’ (Arabic for ‘discord’), is currently in negotiations, according to Wilders, who expects Dutch broadcasters to air it. He insists that it will be shown in its entirety, and if they refuse then he will post it on the internet.

It has been reported that Wilders has had 24-hour security since Theo van Gogh was murdered on the back of the release of his film ‘Submission’ in 2004.

    Fitna – A film extracted and compiled by western ideologist and non believer. As it seem the more we learn from the live we are given and the benefits we harvested, the bolder we become, doing evil biding for Satan pleasure. The non believers forget God and they forget the true meaning of love and respect.
    It is foretold that with our Faith in God and with God protection, no harm shall fall onto the believers. Only by way of Satan whisper shall evil deeds be done through the non believers and deceivers.
    Prime example is the war on Iraq. The west draw up self claim analyze of Iraq WMD that can be fire within 45mins, showed clips of WMD, even to the extent of creating a 3D image of mobile WMD, to show cause of concern Iraq have against neighboring countries specially to Israel, all European countries and America. The western fault ideologist went out of the way by fueling the same treat to the whole of Asia and inflicting their western treat by deceiving word of “You are with us or against us”.
    Five year on, No WMD had been found, western admission of fault analyze of Iraq WMD, killed the only man who had manage to separate the two Iraqi tribes and keep away the Kurdish from his people. Recent article is most disturbing as it had show no proof Saddam Hussein had any link with the Al Qaeda except for being another Arab whom the western try to deceive.
    Five years on, no apology is being surrendered out by Western and Asian countries that had support the war in Iraq. Sighting that without them, the flow of democracy will not be in place. The only thing flowing out of Iraq is oil for the west. Soon after the oil is diminishing, the Iraqi and Arab nation will wake up asking themselves, what had hit them?
    Under one Heaven. Only with a strong leader can China be united during the Qin dynasty. Although the emperor is not famous for his down play manner, those who understand his ways, will realize what he need to do and rule the country under one Heaven.
    This is why we all should be aware of what modernization and globalization bring along. God is most merciful and most gracious. To make live better for all God’s subject, those who ask shall be given. When it is given, do it in the name of good and with God blessing. End day we all shall be called upon for our time and ways we have had chosen to live our life.
    To nurture good, is to is to love and respect each other, but
    “In the Name of God, the Infinitely Compassionate, Most Merciful”
    “All praise is God’s, The Sustainer of all worlds”
    “The Infinitely Compassionate and Most Merciful”
    “Sovereign of the Day of Reckoning”
    “You alone do we worship, And You alone do we ask for help”
    “Guide us on the straight path”
    “The path of those who have received Your favor, not the path of those who have earned Your wrath, nor of those who have gone astray”
