Wilders Stands By His "Less Moroccans" Remarks In Cross Examination By Police - Faces Prosecution

December 8, 2014

Wilders in verhoor: ik neem niets terug van ‘minder Marokkanen'

PVV-leider Geert Wilders "neemt geen woord terug" van de opmerkingen over minder Marokkanen, die hij maakte op de avond van de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen in maart van dit jaar in Den Haag. Dat zei hij vandaag tijdens een verhoor door de Rijksrecherche, dat plaatsvond op verzoek van het OM, dat Wilders wil vervolgen vanwege de "belediging van een groep mensen op grond van ras en aanzetten tot discriminatie en haat."

Volgens Wilders heeft hij "niets verkeerd gezegd" toen hij een publiek ‘minder, minder' liet scanderen nadat hij aanhangers van de PVV vroeg of ze meer of minder Marokkanen wilden:

"Ik wil inderdaad minder Marokkanen in Nederland, vanwege de redenen en de context zoals eerder door mij zowel in deze verklaring als in het parlement geuit en waarvoor ik u verwijs naar de stukken die ik thans overleg. De Nederlander die meer Marokkanen in Nederland wil moet ik nog tegenkomen."

Niet alle Marokkanen

Zoals hij al vaker heeft benadrukt, waren zijn opmerkingen niet gericht op alle Marokkanen:

"Minder Marokkanen is iets anders dan dat ik alle Marokkanen Nederland uit zou willen hebben of iets zou hebben tegen alle Marokkanen."

Wilders is er naar eigen zeggen niet op uit mensen te kwetsen of beledigen of haat te zaaien en te discrimineren:

"Ik spreek echter niet met meel in de mond wanneer ik onze verworven vrijheden verdedig en de gevaren voor onze samenleving benoem."

Hij gaat er niet van uit dat het OM zal besluiten hem te vervolgen voor zijn opmerkingen.

Statement of Geert Wilders during His Interrogation by the State Police

As a democratically elected politician I name the problems that I see.... That is my duty. That is why I have been elected. I rely on objective facts and figures.... Because they are the truth.

I do not intend to hurt or offend people either... Already for over 10 years, I have lost my personal freedom.

In my fight for freedom and against the Islamization of the Netherlands, I will never let anyone silence me. No matter the cost, no matter by whom, whatever the consequences may be.

To speak with the words of Martin Luther King: "I close by saying there is nothing greater in all the world than freedom. It's worth going to jail for. It's worth losing a job for. It's worth dying for."

The Hague, December 8, 2014.

Today, Dutch parliamentarian and PVV leader Geert Wilders made a statement during his interrogation by the Dutch State Police. The State Police interrogated Mr Wilders on behalf of the Dutch Public Prosecutor, who is considering to prosecute Mr Wilders because the politician had asked his voters during the election campaign whether they wanted more or fewer Moroccans in the Netherlands.

Our freedom is being threatened. Threatened by a violent totalitarian ideology – Islam – that brings with it death and devastation. Threatened by a politically correct elite that does not tolerate criticism of Islam and mass immigration, and that nurtures cultural relativism.

I rise up against this.

As a democratically elected politician I name the problems that I see. I name the dangers and disadvantages that we experience in the Netherlands as a result of cultural relativism, mass immigration and the ongoing Islamization. That is my task. That is my duty. That is why I have been elected. That is the reason why I am in politics and why I founded the Party for Freedom (PVV).

I am fighting for a better Netherlands.
To preserve our own culture.
Our own identity.
Our safety.
Our freedom.

I do not discriminate. I do not spread hatred, nor do I incite to it. I do not intend to hurt or offend people either. However, I do not mince my words when I defend our established freedoms and name the dangers to our society.

I dedicate my life to the fight against this evil ideology and the defense of our liberties. Every day, I pay the price for this fight. Already for over ten years, I have lost my personal freedom.

During the past 10 years, I have drawn attention to the Moroccan problem which we have here in the Netherlands. These include serious problems with integration, crime and welfare dependency. The majority of the jihadis travelling from the Netherlands to Syria is Moroccan. In order to see the whole context, the contents of the attachments that I deposit with you here today must be taken into consideration.

I rely on objective facts and figures. Facts that I must name. Because they are the truth. If we had had the same problem in the Netherlands with Canadians, I would have named them.

Those who do not understand that we have an enormous problem with Islam and with Moroccans in the Netherlands, though seeing, they do not see, and though hearing, they do not hear.

For the reasons above, while on campaign in The Hague, I argued that there need to be fewer Moroccans. And, at an election meeting in The Hague, I asked those present a number of questions, one of which was "Do you want more or fewer Moroccans?"

Indeed, I want fewer Moroccans in the Netherlands for the reasons and context that I have previously expressed in this statement as well as in Parliament and for which I refer you to the documents that I now deposit.

I have yet to meet the Dutchman who wants more Moroccans in the Netherlands. Asking for fewer Moroccans is something totally different than if I were to want all Moroccans to leave the Netherlands or than if I were to object to every Moroccan.

Like me, 43% of all the Dutch and 95% of my supporters want fewer Moroccans in the Netherlands. I have said what millions of Dutchmen think.

I also want less Islam in the Netherlands.

And like me, 65% of all the Dutch and 100% of my supporters think that the Islamic culture does not belong to the Netherlands.
Since the establishment of the PVV, I have advocated fewer immigrants from Islamic countries.
Since the establishment of the PVV, I have identified the Moroccan problem and presented (democratic) solutions for it, such as:

I do not retract anything of what I have said.

Because I have said nothing wrong.

In my fight for freedom and against the Islamization of the Netherlands, I will never let anyone silence me. No matter the cost, no matter by whom, whatever the consequences may be.

To speak with the words of Martin Luther King: "I close by saying there is nothing greater in all the world than freedom. It's worth going to jail for. It's worth losing a job for. It's worth dying for."

For these above reasons, I assume that the Public Prosecutor will decide not to prosecute me.
Any other decision cannot be interpreted otherwise than politically motivated.

Geert Wilders
