Alright, here we go. I’m going to be adding in some older links, due to technical reasons that I will leave unspecified for now. If any links have already been posted in previous round-ups, well, such is life.

that, in Islam, the punishment for anyone who insults the prophet — peace be upon him, of course — is capital punishment. He should take the lesson from Theo van Gogh and others who’ve faced the punishment.
So say Muslim demonstrators in the United Kingdom. Welcome to the birthplace of the Magna Carta, here. [Thanks to Diana West.]

Andy, be fair. That nice young gentleman does add:
The one who insults any of the Prophets, kill him. That is the capital punishment.Not necessarily that I personally am going to carry it out…
Awfully decent of you. And no doubt a tribute to the awesome assimilationist powers of the advanced social democratic state. As for the basic message:
Obviously all these people who insult Islam they are under constant protection, they don’t live a life. So they should learn from that…
You’d be surprised how many people already have. (Tim Blair has a poem about it.)
These young men are, de jure, British subjects and, de facto, the demographic energy of every city down the spine of the country. “Islam will dominate!” they yell, impatient that it doesn’t already, not entirely. The delusions of multiculturalism have brought about the death of England – in nothing flat. An amazing feat.

Atlas Shrugs – ISLAM ATTACKS: Is Temple University Canceling Geert Wilders and Caving into Muslims’ Attack on Free Speech?
In a stunning act of cowardice and dhimmitude, Temple University may be caving to the demands of the student jihad at Temple University to cancel Geert Wilders.
“We strongly urge that his invitation be rescinded immediately in order to foster appreciation of free speech that is not based on hatred and discrimination”.

Public Secrets – Religion of Tolerance Watch:
So, let me get this straight:
- The penalty for insulting the “prophets” is death.
- Geert Wilders had better watch his back (or neck, as the case may be).
- But the young Muslim at the start of the video isn’t threatening Wilders. Oh, no.
And lest you think I’m drawing too much from this, note the speaker’s reference to Theo van Gogh, the filmmaker murdered in Amsterdam by a devout Muslim for insulting Islam and Muhammad – by exercising his right to free speech. Van Gogh was Wilders’ countryman, and the Dutch lawmaker, who lives under police protection, knows exactly what message was intended.
But he’s an Islamophobe and overreacting; after all, Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance, and perfectly compatible with Western democratic liberties.

The Associated Press – Anti-Islamic Dutch lawmaker speaks at US college:
PHILADELPHIA — An anti-Islamic Dutch lawmaker’s visit to Temple University was cut short after a question and answer session turned nasty.
Geert Wilders (VIL’-durz) was escorted from the Philadelphia university’s lecture hall as some in the crowd of several hundred students began shouting jeers at the Dutch politician.
Wilders’ previous 30-minute address was met by a mixture of applause and boos Tuesday night at the public university serving about 34,000 students.
He touched on common themes in his speeches, including calling the Muslim holy book, the Quran, “an evil book” that promotes violence and intolerance.
The event was organized by a student group called Purpose and is being funded by the California-based David Horowitz Freedom Center, a foundation that promotes conservative scholarship.

It was a triumph for free speech tonight at Columbia University. Despite resistance from Columbia University administration and Columbia security efforts to limit access to the event, Wilders packed the house and was allowed to speak freely.
I watched Wilders this evening and reflected upon the whole journey that got this man to this moment. I was so grateful to this man for taking on this global encroaching monster against all odds. I have uploaded his remarks. Watch the videos. There was a little hissing and a random heckle, but they let him speak — and in the age of jihad that is huge.
And it was good.
Waiting to get in ……….who’s the guy with the sign?
The Islamist Rabbi (who threatened litigation jihad, remember?). He was at the Islamist day parade last Sunday. What a tool.

Atlas Shrugs – Text of the Speech Geert Wilders MP / Columbia University:
Ladies and gentlemen, it is a privilege and a great honour for me to speak at this fine academic institution, which gave the world so many Nobel Prize winners. As a Dutchman, I am proud that your first Nobel laureate, in 1906, was of Dutch descent: The youngest President of the United States: Theodore Roosevelt.
I thank Columbia University for inviting me, and I also thank the US border police for allowing me to enter this great country of democracy, liberty and free speech. Ladies and gentlemen, today, the dearest of our many liberties is under attack all throughout Europe. Free speech is no longer a given. What we once considered a natural element of our existence, our birth right, is now something we once again have to fight for.
I would not qualify myself as a free man. 5 years ago I lost my personal freedom. Since then I am under 24-hour police protection. In addition some people tried to rob my freedom of speech: A Dutch Islamic organization tried to stop the appearance of my documentary ‘Fitna’. Because of ‘Fitna’ the most radical Dutch imam claimed 55.000 Euros in compensation for his hurt feelings. The State of Jordan is possibly going to issue a request for my extradition, to stand trial in Amman. I have been charged in France.
