What I want to know is how do I get the house of lords to watch one of my films. His film [I]Fitna [/I]can be watched on Google video. Its appalling nonsense.

I bet they wouldnt let Alex Jones or Dillon Avery show one of their films in The House Of Lords

Yeah this guy is a joke I watched some interview's with him and read some of his speeches...the sad thing is that some ppl actually listen to him.

Chunky

To get one of your films shown in the house of Lords you need the support of a Lord - in this case Wilders was invited by a Lord Pearson, a UKIP member of the upper house.

I watched Fitna - and whilst its not a well made film, his message is quite clear - according [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitna_(film)"]Wilders[/URL] the 15-minute film shows how verses from the Qur'an are being used today to incite modern Muslims to behave violently and anti-democratically based on those verses - is this what you mean by nonsense?>

An interesting aside, next month in the UK, SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies) are hosting a conference on Political Islam - one of their key speakers, Dr Ibrahim Moussaoui, used to run Al-Manor TV (The Hizbollah TV station). Al Manor has produced some of the most anti-jewish shows, like, er, ever (examples below).

Should Moussaoui, like Wilders also be banned from entering the UK?

Can you image the out cry if he was?

That all aside, is the UK not setting a dangerous precedent by banning a member of parliament from one its European partners?

Personally I dont think they should of banned him. I just think his film is nonsense. Interestingly most of the Muslims interviewed on TV didn't want him banned either
