Wilders checks Trump: It's Islam, not radical IslamTerrorism expert Geert Wilders, the leader of the Netherland’s Party for Freedom,
called President Donald Trump out on the speech he delivered to Saudis over the weekend when the president incited the world to get tough on terrorism, as the Dutchman insisted that
Islam is the problem – not “Islamism” or “radical Islam.”
Before speaking at the American Freedom Alliance’s annual Heroes of Conscience dinner in Universal City, California, on Sunday night after Trump’s speech, Wilders made sure that nobody was confused by
the president’s politically correct assertion that radical Islam is the problem.
“Islam is the problem,” Wilders told WND. “We can only deal with [the threat] if we first face the truth, [which] might not be too politically correct, but still is the truth, and that is that Islam – and not Islamism or radical Islam, but
Islam – is an evil ideology, like communism or fascism, that has no place in a free society.”
Wilders stressed that portraying Islam in a more positive light only perpetuates the problem – s
imilar to the way Trump tried to imply that Islam is not trying to wipe out Christianity.
“Terrorists] do not worship God, they worship death,” the president told Saudis in Riyadh. “This is not a battle between different faiths, different sects, or different civilizations. This is a battle between barbaric criminals who seek to obliterate human life, and decent people of all religions who seek to protect it.”
But Wilders made it clear that
the very nature of Islam is dead-set against being a part of any democracy.
