No Religion in the world teach People to hate & kill others. I totally agree to this. Please stop talking negative about other religions. There is no religion in the world that supports terrorism. Islam is a very peaceful religion and it teaches love not hatred, peace not terrorism, justice and harmony not injustice. This movie does not prove anything against Islam. It only proves that Geert and Scarlet themselves have a sick mind and are full of hatred for other people. So stop all this propaganda against Islam and work on improving yourself first. Acts of terrorism have been done by criminals belonging to different religions, then why put the blame on Islam?
For its purpose, Gert Wildeers pulled off a horrifically tragic and impressive piece of short-film. It shows how Islam and the Quran is misinterpreted by radical Muslims and a couple of the consequences of just that. The short-film is designed to bring out fear in the audience by telling the old sad story of terrorism and the bad experiences that has risen throughout Europe and the USA.
No doubt - What is shown is true. What this movie doesn't show us is the good Muslim doing his job, the Muslim making friends with Europeans and Americans and the Muslim adapting to his new environments. To generalize and expect people to be dumb as cattle are not the way to go about these matters. Digging even deeper trenches between the Islamic culture and western culture is a bad idea. Unless You just wanna say "fcuk it" and arm up as we speak. I don't have the solution to these problems that we experience these days. I just don't feel that this short-film is going to help solve anything at all... Especially in this turbulent time of satiric drawings and no-good trade embargoes.
Somebody needs to give that man a hug. There are lots of Muslims acting retarded in this world. But luckily there are significantly more acting like the rest of us.
God bless us all!

I am not even going to give this a vote, as it does not even qualify to be judged by any scale. The film is pure propaganda, and is like the Nazis's are replaced with ignorant caucasions and the Jew's with innocent muslims.
I ask you: -Why do I- as a Muslim, raised and born in the west, fully integrated with the culture of my new homecountry- now have to be afraid going out of my home? Is this not the TRUE meaning of Terror?
-Why every time someone speaks of Islam, automatically the terrorism subject is approached? Are terrorists really muslims, or just fundamentally disturbed people, with an understanding that is all to mixed up- just happen to have grown up in a Muslim state?
This move, documentary or what you want to call it, reaches out to those of us who are weak. Those people who have not yet reached the understanding that is needed to take a stand. I am afraid that that is the majority of the people in the world. I pledge you to do not choose your stand from a propaganda film like this, rather go out to a "normal" Muslim, equal to the "normal" Christian, jew, buddhist, and ask him/her about his/her's belief and religion. You will see that our religion is not much different from yours.
The writings in the Qouran are over 1000 years old!! No one believes them 100%! It's like believing that the world was created in 6 days, and hell was created because of Adam eating an apple.
Wake up people, before it's all to late...

well.. i'vent seen the movie or whatever it is ,, from what I've known about it when i read the summary ....all i want to say to the director " go read history so well before doing such a thing called a documentary movie showing Islam far away from its real thing.. " ..well i agree that some Muslim terrorism organizations have done some terrorism attacks and so on , however far away from those kind of people who care about killing innocent people ( those ppl are criminals , and its against Islam order ) ..Islam is not a religion that teaches people how to terrify ppl and slaughter them or blow them up,... Islam is something far far far away from that ,,its not written in the Koran or have been told by Muhammad the prophet to kill ppl who r not Muslims,.,all i want to say that those people who are calling themselves defending the Islam they r doing nothing but making the Islamic people shaped so bad,Islam is the religion of etiquette , and how to treat with people so good...and its not an old belief thing,,Islam is founded on earth once Adam was created by god,,,well i wont talk about historical things and history of Islam here of course , cause u can found it everywhere on the net n in the libraries and many other places ,,,but the makers of this documentary movies don't read at all , and by the way since Muhammad the prophet , Muslims don't consider any ppl enemies until they consider them enemies ..whatever ,,, ... and yea am a Muzlim and am proud because am born a Muzlim ,,, and i respect ppl in other countries , .., respect there cultures and respect them in the good things of course,,,, and respect other ppl who r not Muslims ,cause Islam ordered Muslims to respect others no matter what they believe in or worship.. just telling people to go read before taking a bad view about this thing farewell

If you want to judge something; c both sides ... else you have to know you were not listening to find the truth but just to be lead by a person who believe "You are just a follower"!!!
It's to clarify some misconceptions, people have towards Islam open your eyes, your heart and your brains and don't let only one of them drive your judgment. And seek the TRUTH not what SEEMS to be like it. Be fair and logical! It's a matter of Heaven or Hell .. Think it deserves !!!

- TriviaThis movie was directed and edited under the supervision of Geert Wilders, a Dutch right wing politician. The Dutch public broadcasting network companies refused to air it, and Wilders had declined an offer from the Moslimomroep (MO) or Muslim Broadcasting Company, who wanted to air the film in its entirety. Seeing no other options, Wilders had the film posted on Liveleak, and can now be watched on-line.
- GoofsInstead of Mohammed Bouyeri, the killer of Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh, this movie shows a parody of a news photograph featuring Dutch rapper Salah Edin.
