New Wilders Death Threat

LONDON    Right-wing Dutch politician Geert Wilders is in trouble again. A well-known radical Australian cleric is calling for his death by “beheading” following comments Wilders made to Australian television in which he described Islam as “retarded” and “violent.”

The audio message from Feiz Mohammed, was first posted by the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf.  While one security source claims  the tape could have been recorded earlier,  a London-based terror expert tells Fox News he believes it is “the real thing.”

“You’ve got take this seriously,” Robin Simcox, from the Centre for Social Cohesion noted, “the jihadists stay across this web site.”

Wilder’s anti-Islamic views have earned him notoriety…and protection.  Dutch authorities tell Fox News they are already providing him with “…the highest level of security that’s possible” and so won’t be adding any more.

Still, in a message to a Dutch news agency, Wilders says he is “shocked” by the threat and wants to know why he wasn’t informed earlier.

Wilders' aides tell Fox he still plans to make a trip to New York next week to speak at a protest against the controversial Islamic center planned for a location near Ground Zero.

Wilder’s Freedom party did well in recent Dutch parliamentary elections and could play a still-to-be-finalized role in a future government.   He also faces a trial next month for inciting hatred against Muslims.
