I’ve written in the past about the evolution of the “anti-jihadist” blogosphere and intelligentsia. A few years ago, arguments arose between activists and writers like Pamela “Atlas Shrugs” Geller and Robert Spencer and supporters like Charles “Little Green Footballs” Johnson, with a sticking point being support for European far-right parties. In 2009, for example, the “anti-jihadists” courted controversy by bringing far-right Dutch leader Geert Wilders to Washington.
In Dutch elections yesterday, Wilders scored some major victories.
A party that calls Islam a backward religion, wants a ban on headscarves in public life and has compared the Koran to Hitler’s Mein Kampf has made major gains in local elections in the Netherlands. Geert Wilders’ Freedom Party (PVV) has become the biggest party in the medium-sized city of Almere, and the second biggest in the political capital of the Netherlands, The Hague.
And in British elections scheduled for May, the far-right British National Party is expected to perform strongly.

Read the Koran, and look at life in Muslim countries, Islam IS a backwards religion. Not that any religion is good or true, they're all crazy but Islam is the worst. Read the book,see for yourselves.
