Fitna the Movie: A Case Study

This paper discusses Geert Wilders, the film Fitna, and the global reactions followed. Fitna is essentially a 15 minute film which features graphic images of terrorists attacks and death threats by Muslim radicals combined with five verses from the Qur’an (Crouch, 2008b). It also features some inflammatory speeches from radical Muslims to attack non-believers (The Associated Press, 2008b). The film has two versions, English and Dutch, and first published on a video sharing website, LiveLeak.
