Fitna (Arabic:) is a 2008 short film by Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders. Approximately 17 minutes in length, the film shows selected excerpts from Suras of the Qur'an, interspersed with media clips and newspaper cuttings showing or describing acts of violence and/or hatred by Muslims. The film is intended to demonstrate that the Qur'an motivates its followers to hate all who violate Islamic teachings. Consequently, the film argues that Islam encourages - among other thingsacts of terrorism, antisemitism, violence against women and against homosexuals and Islamic universalism. A large part of the film details the influence of Islam on the Netherlands.
