Hat Tip by Baron Bodissey - Gates of Vienna

Fitna is a film by Dutch politician Geert Wilders, leader of the Party for Freedom in the Dutch parliament. The movie offers a critical view of Islam and the Koran. The name comes from the Arabic word fitna which is used to describe "disagreement and division among people", or a "test of faith in times of trial".

Update:
LiveLeak, who had expected to keep the movie up, recieved so many credible death threats from The Religion of Peace they decided to remove the movie. It's sad, but at least it did get a lot of publicity and MSM coverage in the 24 hours it was up.

Gates of Vienna keeps a list of alternative sites, torrent sites and translations. It is available at Google Video and many other places. The LiveLeak link will remain here, as the takedown message is instructive. This is what happens if our politicians do not stand up against intimidation. They've been rather frail this time, not least at the EU level.

The movie was first mentioned in the Dutch media on November 27, 2007 and was released on the internet on 27 March 2008

Wilders has said the 15-minute film will show how verses from the Koran are being used today to incite modern Muslims to behave violently and anti-democratically based on those verses.

Wilders has described the film as "a call to shake off the creeping tyranny of Islamization"
