I like this film short. The writers and editors, through much of the film, simply take video out-takes and print statements, from various radical Islamists preaching hate against Jews and other non-Muslims. The film depicts the excesses of radical Muslim behaviour: terrorism, beheadings, torture, female genital mutilation, the murder of gays, the subordination of women, the intolerance of other non-Mulsim points of view. All of this is done with no voice-over commentary. Backbround audio is that of a classical/funeral composition by Grieg -- and it is effective.
The film argues against Sharia law coming into dominance in the Netheralands (and ultimately Europe). The film argues vehemently against radical Islam and for western democratic ideals. Many posters commenting on this film will attack the film. But I do not. If the mainstream media -- in Hollywood or Europe -- treat radical Islamists with sympathy, it is up to non-orthodox, non-mainstream media to step to the fore.
Interestinly, I write this on the first day of the movie's release onto one web site, and the film on this first day has been already seen by 3 1/2 million people.
