Wilders to boycott tv talk show over ‘disgusting cartoon’
Monday 14 February 2011
PVV leader Geert Wilders is boycotting a televised election debate because the Vara public broadcasting company will not remove an offensive cartoonabout him from one of its websites.
The cartoon, on the Joop.nl website, is a play on Wilders’ plan to set up special villages for people who cause a persistant public nuisance, which he called Tuigdorpen, or scum villages.
It features a queue of people, obviously immigrants, wearing the letter T on their clothes and being directed towards the showers by Wilders – drawing a comparison between the villages and the Nazi death camps.
Nonsense
The broadcaster has refused to remove the cartoon. A spokesman pointed out that the makers of the tv talk show have nothing to do with the cartoon or the decision to publish it.
In a statement on Monday, Wilders told the Telegraaf: ‘The VARA’s statement that it does not want to liken us to Nazis because it is the opinion of the cartoonist is nonsense and does not matter. If your neighbour invites you to visit and you know there is a painting in his living room which compares you to a Nazi you don’t go either.’
In the past, Wilders has defended both the Danish artists who published cartoons satirising Islam and Dutch cartoonist Gregorius Nekshot who was arrested and later released following the publication of drawings said to be offensive to immigrants.
At the time, Wilders accused the public prosecution department of have dictatorial tendencies. He also accused the Telegraaf of censorship for refusing to publish the work in an election special put together by the PVV leader himself.

Obama, what do you mean by massive entitlement programs ? for over 45 years I paid a lot of my money into Social Security System and if our politicians kept their hands off it S/S would be in good shape also I pay $98.00 a month for my medicare. Another problem is all the freeloaders in the system that never paid a dime into it and the feds look the other way and won’t take any action against them. We now pay taxes on our S/S benefits thank’s to Bill Clinton.
When you pay for your insurance is that considered an entitlement ?
