Being a rather liberal person, I would choose to ignore the short minded Dutch MP movie “Fitna”. This is not his first and certainly will not be his last "Fitna" to Islam. Our beloved faith of Islam and our beloved Rasulullah (Peace Be Upon Him) were insulted in many forms including cartoons and caricatures for many years. Forget all the arguments, debate, protest, I would simply dismiss those cartoons caricatures by saying it is not our prophet and we should not be bother about it.
So came the calls to withdraw the movie. Do you really think the Europeans would stand behind us calling for the withdrawal of the movie? No, they dont, they wont, they wouldn’t be bother. You can walk down the streets burning cars shops flags, it wouldn’t hurt them at all.
So, the best move is to answer the calls to boycott Dutch products. Why? That will send their stock market and economy to the ground. Perhaps, that would happen.

This evening on TV3 News, I saw this Australian lady by the name of Ilham, disagree of such move. She looked wary. One of her reason, it will affect the Muslim business community dealing with Dutch products. She put it in such a way as if there are no other countries to trade with other than Netherland.
It is this type of people that makes us all fail in whatever symbolic protest we have in mind.

She makes us look weak and as if as a Muslim we have no choice in life.
