Geert Wilders again threatened with death
A portrait of Dutch politician Geert Wilders is featured with a bullet hole through his head on a film shown by an English-language online magazine
The 20-second film shows portraits of other well-known politicians such as US president Barak Obama and Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Pistol shots are heard and bullet holes appear in their heads, the AD reports. At the end of the film are the words ‘targets enough’.
Wilders, who has been under permanent protection since 2004, told the paper: ‘After ten years, these threats still upset me deeply. They show that criticising Islam remains dangerous but also necessary. The price you pay is loss of personal freedom.’
