If I insult you, am I responsible for your violence?
It's a question being debated in the Netherlands this week as Dutch embassies around the world beef up their security ahead of the release of a film on the internet which allegedly insults the Koran. It's reported to show the Koran being torn up and otherwise desecrated.
The extreme right wing politician Geert Wilders has made the ten minute film promoting his belief that the Koran inspires people 'to do the worst things'. His views have inspired him to talk about a 'Tsunami of Islamisation' in Europe, for the Koran to be banned, and for Dutch Muslims to either give up their religion or leave the country.
These remarks have gained his party nine seats in the 150 seat parliament and himself a 24 hour police guard.

At least he did it. Many people on the left OR right won't admit to what is becoming apparent: Islam needs reformation. Christianity,Judaism and other religions have done this.
