Wilders was elected for the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy to the municipal council of Utrecht, the fourth largest city of the Netherlands, in 1997.[2][3] He lived in Kanaleneiland, which had been a middle-class Dutch neighborhood but changed in the 1990s as Muslim immigrants moved in; crime dramatically increased over this time.Templat:Fact While a city councilor, Wilders was mugged in his own neighborhood; some have speculated that this may have catalysed his political transformation.[4][5]
A year later, he was elected to the Netherlands' national parliament,[2] but his first four years in parliament drew little attention.[3] But in 2002, his appointment as a public spokesman for the People's Party, led Wilders to become more well known for his outspoken criticism of Islamic extremism. Tensions immediately developed within the party, as Wilders found himself to be to the right of most members, and challenged the party line in his public statements.[6] In September 2004, Wilders left the People's Party, having been a member since 1989, to form his own political party, Groep Wilders, later renamed the Party for Freedom.[7] His final dispute with the party was about his refusal to endorse the party's position that European Union accession negotiations must be started with Turkey.[3]
The Party for Freedom's political platform often overlap those of the assassinated Rotterdam politician Pim Fortuyn and his Pim Fortuyn List.[2] It bases its ideas on a small government, law and order, and direct democracy ideological framework. It calls for a €16 billion tax reduction, a far stricter policy toward recreational drug use, investing more in roads and other infrastructure, building nuclear power plants, and including animal rights into the Dutch constitution.[8] In the 2006 Dutch parliamentary election, the Party for Freedom won, in its first parliamentary election, 9 out of the 150 open seats.[9]
Polling conducted throughout March 2009 by Maurice de Hond has indicated that the Party for Freedom is the most popular parliamentary party. The polls predicted that the party would take 21 per cent of the national vote, taking 32 out of 150 seats in the Dutch parliament.[10] If the polling results were to be replicated at an official election, Wilders could be a major power broker and would become the Prime Minister of the Netherlands.[11][12] This has been partially attributed to timely prosecution attempts against him for hate speech and the travel ban imposed on him from the United Kingdom,[13] as well as dissatisfaction with government response to the global financial crisis of 2008–2009.[10]
[sunting] Political views
[sunting] Political principles
Wilders generally considers himself to be a libertarian, with a specific mix of positions independent of the European political spectrum and particular of iconoclastic Dutch society. He has stated that "My allies are not Le Pen or Haider... We'll never join up with the fascists and Mussolinis of Italy. I'm very afraid of being linked with the wrong rightist fascist groups."[14] Wilders views British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher to be his greatest political role model.[14] People's Party for Freedom and Democracy figure Frits Bolkestein also heavily influenced his beliefs.[2]
Wilders strongly opposes the Dutch political system in general. He believes that a ruling elite exists among parliamentarians who only care about their own personal careers and disregard the will of the people. He also blames the Dutch system of multi-party coalition governing for a lack of clear and effective policies.[3] In his view, Dutch society advocates rule by consensus and cultural relativism, while he believes that it should change so as to "not tolerate the intolerant".[15]
On foreign relations, Wilders has largely supported Israel and has criticised countries he perceives as enemies of Israel.[16] Furthermore, Wilders has made some proposals in the Dutch Parliament inspired by Israel. For example, Wilders supports implementing Israel's administrative detention in the Netherlands, a practice heavily criticized by human rights groups, which he calls "common sense".[15]
Furthermore, Wilders recovered the ancient idea to reunite Flanders and the Netherlands [17].
Wilders published his political manifesto, called Klare Wijn ("Clear Wine"), in March 2005.[7] It received a mixed reception in public polls, with 53% calling it "implausible" and 47% more supportive.[18] The program proposed ten key points to be implemented: Templat:Cquote2
[sunting] Views on Islam
Templat:Muslims and controversies
Wilders is best known for his criticism of Islam, summing up his views as being that "I don't hate Muslims. I hate Islam."[14] Although identifying Islamic extremists as a small 5-15% minority of Muslims,[15] he argues that "there is no such thing as 'moderate Islam'" and that the "Koran also states that Muslims who believe in only part of the Koran are in fact apostates".[19] He suggests that Muslims should "tear out half of the Koran if they wished to stay in the Netherlands" because it contains 'terrible things' and that Muhammad would "... in these days be hunted down as a terrorist."[20]
On 8 August 2007, Wilders opined in a open letter[21] to the Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant that the Koran, which he called a "fascist book", should be outlawed in the Netherlands, like Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf.[22] He has stated that "The book incites hatred and killing and therefore has no place in our legal order."[23] He has also referred to Mohammed as "the devil".[24]
He believes that all Muslim immigration to the Netherlands should be halted and all settled immigrants should be paid to leave.[14] Referring to the increased population of Muslims in the Netherlands, he has said that: Templat:Cquote In a speech before the Dutch Parliament, he stated that: Templat:Cquote
Nonetheless, Wilders has traveled widely in the Arab world and Der Spiegel has stated that Wilders will "wax poetic" over those "magnificent countries". Wilders has also said that "It's a real shame that these places are so chaotic."[4]
[sunting] Wilders and Israel
Wilders lived in Israel for two years during his youth and has visited the country 40 times the last 25 years.[25]
Wilders stated about Israel: "I have visited many interesting countries in the Middle East (Tunisia, Turkey, Cyprus, Iran) but nowhere did I have the special feeling of brotherhood that I always get when I land on Ben Gurion International Airport[26]. Dutch public tv channel Nederland 2's daily news programme Netwerk reported, that numerous Jewish Americans and supporters of the Israel financially supported Wilders' Party for Freedom (PVV) and openly approved of his message towards Islam and Muslim terrorism.[27]
[sunting] Fitna
Templat:Main Fitna is a 2008 short film written and commissioned by Wilders that explores Koranic inspired motivations for terrorism, Islamic universalism, and Islam in the Netherlands. Its title comes from the Arabic word fitna, which describes "disagreement and division among people" or a "test of faith in times of trial".[28]
It is the subject of an international controversy and debate on free speech.[29] Despite the legal troubles surrounding the film, Wilders insists that he had consulted numerous lawyers in the field, who found nothing worth prosecution, before he ran it.[30] Jordan has summoned Wilders to court, with the film deemed to "incite hatred".[31] Al-Qaeda issued a call to murder Wilders after its release.[32]
In the spring of 2009, Wilders launched the "Facing Jihad world tour", a series of screenings of Fitna to public officials and influential organizations around the globe, starting in Rome.[33] In the United States, Wilders performed a showing to the United States Congress on February 26, having been invited by Arizona Republican Senator Jon Kyl.[34] Around 40 people attended it.[11] Muslims in the United States protested the showing, but the groups said that they supported his right of free speech while still condemning his opinions.[34] Wilders spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference in February 28.[35] He appeared before the National Press Club and the Republican Jewish Coalition that week as well.[36] Similar attempts in Britain led to a travel ban,[32] and legislative blocks have stifled an appearance in Denmark.[37]
[sunting] Personal life
On 10 November 2004, two suspected terrorists were captured after an hour-long siege of a building in The Hague. They had three grenades and have been accused of planning to murder Geert Wilders as well as then fellow MP Ayaan Hirsi Ali.[38] The men in question were presumed members of what the Dutch intelligence agency, the General Intelligence and Security Service, has termed the Hofstadgroep. Since then, Wilders has been under constant security protection because of frequent threats to his life.[39] In September 2007, a Dutch woman was sentenced to a one-year prison term for sending out more than 100 threatening emails to Wilders,[40] and he remains the most threatened politician in the Netherlands in 2008.[41]
Geert Wilders is said to have been "deprived... of a personal life for his... hatred of Islam."[4] He is moved by his state-provided bodyguards to a different location every night, and cannot receive visitors unless they are carefully screened and escorted at all times.[42] He is married to a Dutch–Hungarian former diplomat, with whom he can only meet about once every week due to security concerns.[4] The restrictions on his life because of this, he said, is "a situation that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy".[43]
Wilders has acquired nicknames such as "Mozart" and "Captain Peroxide" due to his flamboyant platinum blond hairstyle.[2] Radio Netherlands calls him "the most famous bleach-blond since Marilyn Monroe".[44] Wilders is an atheist[43][45] but he has stated that he thinks Dutch Christians "are my allies" and that they fundamentally should want the same thing.[45]
[sunting] Public reception
Wilders is a very controversial figure in the Netherlands,[4][46] and around the world.[29][47] He has been labeled in the world news media as "extreme right"[48][49] and far right,[5][32] and is accused of building his popularity on the fear and resentment among Dutch voters toward immigrants.[50][51] Der Spiegel has called his statements "disrespectful", "hate-filled tirades" and has stated that "the elite in the Netherlands despise him for his demagogic manner".[4] According to NRC Handelsblad, "his critics say he has become obsessed with Islam and impervious to reason and alternative points of view."[3]
Muslim critics of Wilders accuse him of using Koranic verses out of context.[52] Due to Wilders' perceived positions on Islam, the Dutch–Moroccan rapper Appa, when interviewed about Wilders for a newspaper, said "if someone were to put a bullet in his head, I wouldn't mind".[53] Wilders' views on Islam prompted the Muslim Mayor of Rotterdam, Ahmed Aboutaleb, to severely reprimand him.[54]
On 15 December 2007, Wilders was declared "politician of the year" by NOS-radio, a mainstream Dutch radio station. The parliamentary press praised his ability to dominate political discussion and to attract the debate and to get into publicity with his well-timed one-liners.[55] The editors eventually gave the title to Wilders because he was the only one who scored high both among the press as well as the general public.[56][57]
Given that Wilders has allegedly called for the ban of the sale of the Koran while simultaneously arguing for his own personal freedom of speech,Templat:Fact editorials in Alternet, The Montreal Gazette, The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, and The New York Times have accused him of hypocrisy.[36][48][58][59][60] In a speech during a Dutch parliamentary debate, Wilders elaborated that he calls for the consistent application of Dutch laws restricting any act of expression that incites violence.[19] Ideally, he would prefer to see nearly all such laws abolished.[18][61][62] As such, he supports a European-wide constitutional protection of freedom of speech like that which exists in the United States.[62]
Wilders has also been compared to the assassinated fellow critic of Islam and filmmaker Theo van Gogh, but he does not see himself as taking on van Gogh's mantle.[43] Wilders has stated that he supports the free speech rights of his critics, saying that "An Imam who wants a politician dead is - however reprehensible - allowed to say so".[18] He has responded to charges of racism and Islamophobia by stating "I don't hate Muslims. I hate their book and their ideology".[14]
[sunting] Ban on entering the United Kingdom
Lord Pearson of Rannoch and Baroness Cox of Queensbury, members of the House of Lords (the upper chamber of the British Parliament), invited Wilders to a 12 February 2009 showing of Fitna in the Palace of Westminster.[63] Two days before the showing, Home Secretary Jacqui Smith banned Wilders from entering the territory of the United Kingdom, labelling him an "undesirable person".[64][65] Entry was denied under EU law, and reportedly supported under regulation 19 of the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2006, an EU law which allows a member state to refuse entry to individuals if they are regarded as constituting a threat to public policy, security or health.[32] A Home Office spokesperson elaborated that "The Government opposes extremism in all its forms ... and that was the driving force behind tighter rules on exclusions for unacceptable behaviour that the Home Secretary announced in October last year."[32]
Wilders defied the ban and entered via London Heathrow Airport on 12 February, trailed by television crews. He was quickly detained by Border Patrol officials and sent back on one of the next flights to the Netherlands. He called Prime Minister Gordon Brown "the biggest coward in Europe" and remarked that "Of course I will come back."[66] Wilders had visited the United Kingdom in December 2008, without any issues.[67] Lord Pearson did not support Wilders' decision to defy the government.[32] In response to the ban, both Pearson and Cox accused the government of "appeasing" militant Islam.[63] Geert Wilders has appealed the decision to the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal.[68]
The International Herald Tribune has stated that the ban was broadly condemned in the British news media.[66] The Dutch Foreign Secretary, Maxime Verhagen, called the decision "highly regrettable" and complained to his British counterpart.[32] Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende complained to Gordon Brown about the "disappointing" decision.[69] The Quilliam Foundation, a British think tank, criticized the ban, [60] as did National Secular Society president Terry Sanderson.[67] The Muslim Labour peer Lord Ahmed expressed support;[60] the Ramadhan Foundation and the Muslim Council of Britain also did so, the council labeling Wilders "an open and relentless preacher of hate".[67][70]
