Wilders: Put Mohammed cartoons on display in Parliament

PVV leader Geert Wilders has submitted a request to Kamer President Anouchka van Miltenburg to have the prophet Mohammed cartoons from Garland, Texas displayed in the Tweede Kamer, lower house of parliament. Earlier this month Wilders was the guest speaker at a competition for the best cartoon depicting the prophet Muhammed in Garland. There was a shooting incident at the event just after Wilders left. A security card was injured and the two attackers were killed by the police. According to Wilders, the attackers want to make it impossible to exhibit Mohammed cartoons. "The only way to make clear to terrorists that we will never let them win, is to do what they try prevent us from doing", Wilders wrote to Van Miltenburg according to NOS.
