FITNA OUT? REALLY!

17 hours after Fitna was put on the internet, Dutch citizens in Lebanon received around 25 minutes ago the following message from the Dutch embassy(in Dutch):

"Attentie: Film van Wilders op internet verschenen. Voor nadere info zie website ambassade www.netherlandsembassy.org.lb. In noodgeval is ambassade 24 uur bereikbaar op (volgt tel nr). Afz: Nederlandse ambassade."

The Dutchies adapt well to the local pace of life :-)

Isn't this funny:

"Novum) - Geert Wilders is 'ontzettend blij' dat zijn antikoranfilm 'Fitna' niet tot rellen heeft geleid. "Hulde aan de moslims van Nederland", zei de PVV-leider vrijdag. "Zij hebben zich verantwoordelijker opgesteld dan de minister-president."


What have they done to the real "Geert", this is not our good old "knettergek", "ze kunnen de pot op", "zal me allemaal een worst zijn" and so on..... this is a scheme, this is a "doppelganger" talking ;-)

Strange. I didn't get such a message here in the Netherlands. So what could be the motive for sending people in Lebanon a message while not sending it to people in the Netherlands?

It's probably not discrimination by religion since Lebanese religious demographics aren't really that different from the Dutch ones; Lebanon has only about twice as many muslims as the Netherlands. So that can't really be it. Maybe is it the warmer temperatures in Lebanon that drive our expats mad? Probably not. The only explanation that makes any sense to me, would be that the motive of the dutch embassy in Lebanon to send this message is called racism.
