Update from TXPoet:
Gee it didn’t upset the dutch muslims:
Muslim body calls for rational response to Dutch anti-Islam film
Anti-Islam film fails to provoke Dutch Muslims
Iranian-born Afshin Ellian, a professor in the philosophy of law affiliated with the universities of Leiden and Amsterdam, said Geert Wilders “must have been advised by the best mullahs.” “Wilders stayed perfectly within the realm of what sharia or Muslim law permits. No images of Mohammed or Allah, and no material that may be blasphemous to Muslims.”

It seems as if the biggest complainers are:
Yesterday, we posted a link by Phyllis Chesler to the new movie, Fitna, available at that time on LiveLeak (update: Phyllis has follow-up here). Watch the removal statement here.
Following threats to our staff of a very serious nature, and some ill-informed reports from some corners of the British media that could directly affect the safety of some staff members Liveleak has been left with no other choice than to remove Fitna from our servers. This is a sad day for freedom of speech on the net but we have to place the safety and well being of our staff above all else. We would like to thank the thousands of people, from all backgrounds and religions, who gave us their support. They realised Livelink.com is a vehicle for many opinions and not just the support of one. Perhaps there is still hope that this situation may produce a discussion that could benefit and educate all of us as to how we can accept one anothers culture. We stood for what we believe in, the ability to be heard, but in the end the price was too high. LiveLeak.com

Death threats against LiveLeak for showing a film about muslims in a true light? No! Say it ain’t so! Are you sure?! Gasp… I can’t believe that the ‘religion of peace’ would have any followers with violent tendencies or who would threaten anyone. I’m shocked …shocked, I tell ya. Some people might get the idea that the film is true if they thought that death threats were used to suppress the film. Hmmm. Wow, this is a stumper.
I’m so confused because I’m told that islam means ‘peace’. I guess we can trust the government to do what’s best, though. I heard the Dutch government apologized to muslims and thanked them for not burning down their country and not murdering anyone today. Maybe if every non-muslim apologized to all muslims and begged them not to murder us just for breathing air, then in their peaceful wonderful islamicness, they’d just beat us up and make us slaves instead? I mean, for goodness sakes, we have to all be as politically correct as possible and close our eyes to the truth if muslims want us to do that.
They are our new overlords and we can’t displease them. Shhhh, here comes a muslim… I’m off to lick his boots and thank him for not murdering me. They’re so kind not to kill us.
Muslims are on the Warpath over Movie
Geert Wilders of the Netherlands produced a movie that basically showed the religion of Islam for the violent cult that it is. His movie, a 15 minute or so short, showed the written word of the Koran and then had clips of Muslims whose words and deeds…

Web 2.0 Wiki
In the last WWF Survey, there were a number of Web 2.0 needs expressed, and we have been looking at options for meeting as many of those needs as possible. One of the suggestions submitted was to use already existing online programs, to avoid the expense and time of having to "reinvent the wheel" (Thanks, Dr. Bill!).
In that spirit, we are providing links to two great affordable resources online - One to help with basic computer skills, and one which is a wiki dedicated to Thriving Online, below. FHK is currently focusing specifically on developing social networking courses. Once we have accomplished that, if there is still a need for more focused training in the more technical areas, we may begin working on developing those courses, as we are able.
We are still looking for online resources for SEO and MMO which are affordable, practical, and preferably operated by right-minded individuals, so if you have suggestions, please let me know.
Meanwhile, check these out:
Ed2Go: "The Earthnet Institute is a non-profit research institute. It partnered with Education To Go (Ed2Go), a Division of Thomson Learning, Inc. to offer highly interactive noncredit online continuing education courses that you can take entirely over the Internet. All courses include expert instructors, many of whom are published authors. Online courses are affordable, fast, convenient, and geared just for you. Explore the catalog, Click Now! [Many courses available for $89 each]
EightWeeks: This is an awesome wiki developed by Leslie Graves and the Lucy Burns Institute, to "help advocates of liberty and markets thrive online." There's an eight-week (hence the name!) "Thriving Online" course, plus a plethora of additional resources for online collaboration. There's a ton of information about wikis, and the program itself is a fantastic model for how a wiki can be used. It is funded by the Lucy Burns Institute, and is free to members. If you are interested, please send an e-mail to me (jennsierra@gmail.com), and I can get you more information, and send you invite.
Stay tuned for more information about courses we will be offering Conservative Networking Online!
A new independent study shows that deaths from terrorism have actually declined by more than 40 percent since 2001.

The Canadian version, the LAV III, was the basis of the U.S. Stryker armored vehicle, which has been used heavily in Iraq, and apparently has impressed the Iraqis...(Okie Campaigns)
The jihad in the Philippines continues. Local muslims are unhappy because they violated an earlier agreement and will not get control over what they consider ancestral homeland.
