Dutch MP's anti-Islam film gets barbs, cheers on YouTube - Yahoo News
by Glenn Chapman
SAN FRANCISCO (AFP) - Snippets of an Islam-bashing film by Dutch far-right MP Geert Wilders were causing a stir Thursday on YouTube, where they triggered cheers and barbs among thousands of viewers.
Wilders made good his pledge to post a controversial film critical of Islam on the Internet and the video quickly spread from British video-sharing website LiveLeak.com - Redefining the Media to globally popular YouTube.
The Wilders film, titled "Fitna," features violent imagery of terrorist attacks in New York and Madrid intertwined with Koranic texts.
Clips showed the 17-minute movie opening with images of a Koran and the text of a sura from Islam's holiest tome, which translated from Arabic implores the faithful to "terrorize the enemies of Allah."
