Parliament speaker urges Muslims not to buy Dutch products
Hollywood Today: "While Western focus on “Fitna,” the Dutch short film critical of Islam, has waned since its release last month, the controversial piece has not been forgotten in Iran. The nation’s parliamentary speaker, Gholamali Haddadadel, has asked Muslim countries to boycott Dutch products in response to the hotly debated footage."

That is a pretty gutsy move to blatantly criticize a religion like this film does. i can understand the muslims' reaction to this as well. Years ago a similar occurrence happened with the writings of Amhad Sadri, where his life was actually threatened because of what he stated in his writings. it is a dangerous, yet courageous thing to do, and i am not saying whether or not it is right, but it is a strong piece of art.
