Pim Fortuyn: "If Something Were to Happen..."

An eerily prescient appearance on Dutch TV by Pim Fortuyn a few months before his assassination, in which he describes the climate that the Dutch establishment had created of demonizing him. He claims that if anything happens to him (in terms of being attacked or murdered) that those involved in the constant attacks on his character wouldn't just be able to walk away with no responsibility.

This demonization and insistence that Fortuyn was a "danger" to the country led to not only constant editorials in the Dutch (and greater European) media, but also to an attack on Fortuyn physically in which he had "pies" containing human waste thrown on him. The joke he makes at the end of this video is in reference to this attack.

Within two months he was murdered in Hilversum (leaving a radio appearance) by far-leftist activist Volkert van der Graaf. This was on the 6th of May, 2002, just days before the election that would have made him Prime Minister of the Netherlands.

Many thanks to "Obosoz" for the translation and notes, and to "Problemsolver71" for providing the video clip.

Elke cultuur heeft het recht zichzelf te verdedigen als er inbreuk op gemaakt wordt. D'r is helemaal niks meer Nederlands aan Nederland; alles is internationaal en compleet onpersoonlijk. Zijn het niet de mensen vanuit het buitenland, dan zijn het wel de multinationals... Pim was voor het de-centraliseren van alles, maar dat is natuurlijk onmogelijk in een Nieuwe Wereld Orde...

Today,Geert Wilders is being demonized by the socialists the same way Pim Fortuyn was,back then.They would love it if Geert Wilders will share the same faith! In such a case,the streets will be flooded with socialists and their muslim brothers,celebrating!

"Legally are all religions equal in our country.. Culturally they are not in my point of view.

Christianity has built this country..cultural, economic and social in every way." Pim Fortuyn

RIP

YES. was killed by the Purple Government, who saw that he became a bit too popular, fi elections, he would have been president for sure.

AND NOW.... they are trying to shut Geert Wilders up too.

By trying to put him in jail.

The DA didn't even want to prosecute him...but were somehow forced to.
