« A Pattern of Hiding Things | Main | What Must a President Believe About America? » March 28, 2008Freedom of SpeechThe Los Angeles Times reports on reaction to the Dutch film Fitna, which looks at the Islamofacist threat to Europe. The 17-minute film is available all over the 'net. The LAT notes that it spread virally and very, very fast. The 17-minute film, "Fitna," the Arabic word for strife, was first posted late Thursday on Wilder's Freedom Party website. The site crashed immediately with heavy traffic, but within minutes the film was available in Dutch and English on the British-based website LiveLeak,which also froze up briefly. By Friday, the film was all over the Internet -- on YouTube, Dailymotion and other shared-video sites. LiveLeak later took down the video, saying its staff had received "threats of a very serious nature."That last sentence is troubling. After all, the goal of Islamofacist terrorism is terrorizing people into doing what the Islamofacists want them to do, isn't it? You can find the film on YouTube in two parts, here and here. (Warning: Fitna contains some rather gruesome images.) Posted in War on Terror
