In the press

Geert Wilders is a hunted man.

He lives under 24/7 armed guard, is driven to work in an armored car, and resides in a bomb and bullet proof safe house. Why?

Because Geert Wilders is marked for death by Islamic extremists.

And now in his new book, Marked for Death, Geert Wilders tells his never-before-published story about the jihad being waged against him—and the West—by radical Islamists.

Dear friends,

I am happy to be in New York again, even though in my country today it is Queen's day, a national celebration. This is why I am wearing my orange tie.

Thank you, Nina, for organizing this event and giving me the opportunity to address all of you. It is always good to be among friends. It is an honor to be here in the presence of so many people who care for the preservation of freedom in our civilization.

It is great to be in America, the beacon of liberty, the land of the free, the land where people are still allowed to speak freely. I know what I am talking about. I was acquitted after a legal ordeal that lasted almost 3 years. I had been brought to court for criticizing Islam.

Our review of Geert Wilders' Marked for Death: Islam's war Against the West and Me will appear in the May 2012 edition of the New English Review. This is the English translation from the Dutch .of Wilders' article published on the website of Dutch publication,Dagelijkse Standaard this weekend.

My book about Islam Marked for Death: Islam's War Against the West and Me is being launched in New York on Tuesday. It posits that the Koran is not a book that was written by Allah, but on the contrary, one that was written by Muhammad. That is the truth, but to Islam that is outright blasphemy.

The political crisis in The Hague shows another core country going soft on the eurozone's chosen strategy of universal austerity, with the hardcore fiscal disciplinarians looking increasingly under siege.

The domestic political debate will no doubt centre on what might happen after prime minister Mark Rutte's resignation, and in particular whether Geert Wilders, the rightwing populist at whose mercy Mr Rutte's governing coalition ruled, will gain or lose from withdrawing his support, ostensibly in protest against austerity measures required by Brussels.
