Holland: A Year Since Van Gogh Was Slain By MuslimOne year ago tomorrow, film-maker Theo van Gogh, controversial film-maker was stabbed, then shot, and his head nearly decapitated for making a film, called "Submission" in which images of naked women were combined with texts from the Koran. No more. Van Gogh did not call Prophet Mohammed a pedophile (for consummating his marriage with Aisha when she was 9 and he was in his 50s). Van Gogh did not insult the Prophet by calling him a murderer, nor a rapist, even though Mohammed condoned both. tension.
Though most Muslims are peaceful, the founder of their religion murdered and pillaged. Therefore, Islam will always be a source of threat to peaceful secularised societies. If the founder of a religion killed in the name of religion, then "true" followers of that faith have an example to follow. Osama bin Laden is a murderer. He is also a true Muslim. The murder of van Gogh served to remind people in Holland, and throughout the West, that Islam, when "insulted", is no religion of peace.
The Labour Party in Amsterdam held a commemoration on the spot were Van Gogh was slain. And turned it into an appeal to control speech.
