I lived in Amsterdam when Pim Fortuyn was killed and the killer remained silent as to intent. So you are spreading falsehoods. If you want to know, it was Theo van Gogh who was killed by an Islamic extremist after producing "sacrilegious" films about the meaning of Islamic verses in the Koran. I was there for that too. The divisions in society will not heal when we justify others' xenophobia. Wilders is popular with the same kind of people Trump is in the US. Take that for what it is worth. Sow dischord, reap the whirlwind.
