Geert Wilders' speech in House of Lords

Partij voor de Vrijheid        13 februari 2009

if he had not been banned from the United Kingdom


London, Feb. 12, 2009
 
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much.

Thank you for inviting me. Thank you Lord Pearson and Lady Cox for showing
Fitna, and for your gracious invitation. While others look away, you, seem
to understand the true tradition of your country, and a flag that still
stands for freedom.

This is no ordinary place. This is not just one of England's tourist
attractions. This is a sacred place. This is the mother of all Parliaments,
and I am deeply humbled to speak before you.

The Houses of Parliament is where Winston Churchill stood firm, and warned
- all throughout the 1930's - for the dangers looming. Most of the time he
stood alone.

In 1982 President Reagan came to the House of Commons, where he did a
speech very few people liked. Reagan called upon the West to reject
communism and defend freedom. He introduced a phrase: 'evil empire'.
Reagan's speech stands out as a clarion call to preserve our liberties. I
quote: If history teaches anything, it teaches self-delusion in the face of
unpleasant facts is folly.

What Reagan meant is that you cannot run away from history, you cannot
escape the dangers of ideologies that are out to destroy you. Denial is no
option.

Communism was indeed left on the ash heap of history, just as Reagan
predicted in his speech in the House of Commons. He lived to see the Berlin
Wall coming down, just as Churchill witnessed the implosion of
national-socialism.

Today, I come before you to warn of another great threat. It is called
Islam. It poses as a religion, but its goals are very worldly: world
domination, holy war, sharia law, the end of the separation of church and
state, the end of democracy. It is not a religion, it is a political
ideology. It demands your respect, but has no respect for you.

There might be moderate Muslims, but there is no moderate Islam. Islam will
never change, because it is build on two rocks that are forever, two
fundamental beliefs that will never change, and will never go away. First,
there is Quran, Allah's personal word, uncreated, forever, with orders that
need to be fulfilled regardless of place or time. And second, there is
al-insal al-kamil, the perfect man, Muhammad the role model, whose deeds
are to be imitated by all Muslims. And since Muhammad was a warlord and a
conqueror we know what to expect.
 
Islam means submission, so there cannot be any mistake about it's goal.
That's a given. The question is whether the British people, with its
glorious past, is longing for that submission.

We see Islam taking off in the West at an incredible speed. The United
Kingdom has seen a rapid growth of the number of Muslims. Over the last ten
years, the Muslim population has grown ten times as fast as the rest of
society. This has put an enormous pressure on society. Thanks to British
politicians who have forgotten about Winston Churchill, the English now
have taken the path of least resistance. They give up. They give in.

Thank you very much for letting me into the country. I received a letter
from the Secretary of State for the Home Department, kindly disinviting me.
I would threaten community relations, and therefore public security in the
UK, the letter stated.

For a moment I feared that I would be refused entrance. But I was confident
the British government would never sacrifice free speech because of fear of
Islam. Britannia rules the waves, and Islam will never rule Britain, so I
was confident the Border Agency would let me through. And after all, you
have invited stranger creatures than me. Two years ago the House of Commons
welcomed Mahmoud Suliman Ahmed Abu Rideh, linked to Al Qaeda. He was
invited to Westminster by Lord Ahmed, who met him at Regent's Park mosque
three weeks before. Mr. Rideh, suspected of being a money man for terror
groups, was given a SECURITY sticker for his Parliamentary visit.

Well, if you let in this man, than an elected politician from a fellow EU
country surely is welcome here too. By letting me speak today you show that
Mr Churchill's spirit is still very much alive. And you prove that the
European Union truly is working; the free movement of persons is still one
of the pillars of the European project.

But there is still much work to be done. Britain seems to have become a
country ruled by fear. A country where civil servants cancel Christmas
celebrations to please Muslims. A country where Sharia Courts are part of
the legal system. A country where Islamic organizations asked to stop the
commemoration of the Holocaust. A country where a primary school cancels a
Christmas nativity play because it interfered with an Islamic festival. A
country where a school removes the words Christmas and Easter from their
calendar so as not to offend Muslims. A country where a teacher punishes
two students for refusing to pray to Allah as part of their religious
education class. A country where elected members of a town council are told
not to eat during daylight hours in town hall meetings during the Ramadan.
A country that excels in its hatred of Israel, still the only democracy in
the Middle-East. A country whose capitol is becoming 'Londonistan'.

I would not qualify myself as a free man. Four and a half years ago I lost
my freedom. I am under guard permanently, courtesy to those who prefer
violence to debate. But for the leftist fan club of islam, that is not
enough. They started a legal procedure against me. Three weeks ago the
Amsterdam Court of Appeal ordered my criminal prosecution for making
'Fitna' and for my views on Islam. I committed what George Orwell called a
'thought crime'.

You might have seen my name on Fitna's credit role, but I am not really
responsible for that movie. It was made for me. It was actually produced by
Muslim extremists, the Quran and Islam itself. If  Fitna is considered
'hate speech', then how would the Court qualify the Quran, with all it's
calls for violence, and hatred against women and Jews?

Mr. Churchill himself compared the Quran to Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf.
Well, I did exactly the same, and that is what they are prosecuting me for.
I wonder if the UK ever put Mr. Churchill on trial.

The Court's decision and the letter I received form the Secretary of State
for the Home Department are two major victories for all those who detest
freedom of speech. They are doing Islam's dirty work. Sharia by proxy. The
differences between Saudi-Arabia and Jordan on one hand and Holland and
Britain are blurring. Europe is now on the fast track of becoming Eurabia.
That is apparently the price we have to pay for the project of mass
immigration, and the multicultural project.

Ladies and gentlemen, the dearest of our many freedoms is under attack. In
Europe, freedom of speech is no longer a given. What we once considered a
natural component of our existence is now something we again have to fight
for. That is what is at stake. Whether or not I end up in jail is not the
most pressing issue. The question is: Will free speech be put behind bars?
We have to defend freedom of speech.

For the generation of my parents the word 'London' is synonymous with hope
and freedom. When my country was occupied by the national-socialists the
BBC offered a daily glimpse of hope, in the darkness of Nazi tyranny.
Millions of my country men listened to it, illegally. The words 'This Is
London' were a symbol for a better world coming soon. If only the British
and Canadian and American soldiers were here.
What will be transmitted forty years from now? Will it still be 'This Is
London'? Or will it be 'this is Londonistan'? Will it bring us hope, or
will it signal the values of Mecca and Medina? Will Britain offer
submission or perseverance? Freedom or slavery?

The choice is ours. 

Ladies and gentlemen,

We will never apologize for being free. We will never give in. We will
never surrender. Freedom must prevail, and freedom will prevail.

Thank you very much."
