"I have come to warn you of a great threat. Free speech is no longer a given, we must now battle for our birthright. We are looking at the end of democracy, the slavery of women, the death of gays. While there might be moderate Muslims, there is no such thing as moderate Islam. Islam is not a religion, it is a political and totalitarian ideology."

Some would say that these are fighting words.

Indeed, Dutch parliamentarian, Geert Wilders, is fighting for Western liberty and Western values, as rooted in the legacies of "Athens, Rome, and Jerusalem." This is the legacy he wishes to leave the "children of Europe," as opposed to the legacy of "Mecca and Gaza." Wilders is fighting for us all, his fight is our fight. As he said earlier today, "it is not about (him) but about Free Speech." Today he may be a "criminal, tomorrow, anyone of us might be considered a criminal too," for telling the truth about the danger that Islam poses to Western democracy. "Today I may be put behind bars. I am not the issue. Will free speech be put behind bars?"

"It is not 8:55pm. It is 11:55pm. We will lose everything."...
