Wilders is your typical bigoted/racist asshole, happily pontificating about his right to "Freedom or Speech or Expression" in one breadth, while advocating the banning and censoring of things like the Qu'ran with the next.

Personally I'm hoping the one of the legal investigations by the EU (for advocating human rights violations), the Netherlands (for treason), or civil courts (for a whole slew of racist and bigoted violations) goes through and tosses this tool in prison.

I do find it ironic that a man who belong to an anti-immigration party is himself a byproduct of immigration.

I don't know that much about the filmmaker, but I'd venture to say that some byproducts of immigration are more interested in assimilating into the culture they immigrated to, and that may make a difference.

I have met him. Ironically he come to Indonesia a lot since his family is from here. Another Irony is that his family in Indonesia are Muslims. Totally ego driven man who only think about advancing his career. Nothing wrong with that, if he's in business he'll be a bloody millionaire by now.

I think he's a brilliant showman. Only people that seems to care about the movie in a real sense are the extreme rights, the extreme rights of Europe (neo-Nazi, anti-Immigration, etc) and the extreme rights of Islam (the Wahabi and their ilks).
