“A Netherlands with Less Islam”

As we reported last night, Geert Wilders’ party scored a major victory in the municipal elections in Almere. VH included a translation of Mr. Wilders’ victory speech in his post last night, but that was drawn from the prepared text as published on the PVV website, and the PVV leader departed from the text at several points. Below is a video of the Geert Wilders speaking to his supporters in Almere, with a fresh translation by VH and subtitling by Vlad Tepes:


A full transcript is below the jump:
- - - - - - - - -
00:00.00 We are the biggest party!
00:04.30 And it looks as though we are the second party in the Hague.
00:08.30 
00:12.30 And when some six months ago we decided…
00:16.30 to participate in two municipal elections, in this beautiful city…
00:20.00 Almere and The Hague, we were laughed at. People said, the left-wing press:
00:25.00 “They will surely not succeed in that.” But we made it.
00:30.00 The biggest party!
00:35.00 The entire left-wing octopus came into action against the PVV.
00:40.00 The state broadcaster every day showed an anti-PVV…
00:44.00 program. Left-wing demonstrators came to Almere,…
00:48.00 posters were destroyed, and of course there was the familiar anti PVV…
00:52.00 rhetoric: curses, intimidations. Agnes Kant [Socialist Party]…
00:56.00 — I am not sure whether you watched it — said a few days ago in a TV debate…
01:00.00 “Mr. Wilders is the threat to our society.”
01:05.00 Agnes: many thanks! But the leftists’ church…
01:09.00 had forgotten one important thing,…
01:14.00 and that is that we had sent one of our best people to Almere.
01:19.00 And look who is the big winner tonight!
01:24.00 That is one person.
01:28.00 One person, together with his team of splendid candidates…
01:32.00 of course has won, and that is our Raymond de Roon!
01:40.00 And Raymond with his team had made…
01:45.00 a fantastic campaign. Dear friends, now something…
01:49.00 very important. As of today I want — because today…
01:53.00 the national campaign has begun — to whisper a number to you.
01:57.00 For this success is really great. What can be in Almere,…
02:01.00 what can be in the Hague, can also be in the entire Netherlands.
02:08.00 This success is the springboard to our victory on June 9.
02:13.00 Today Almere and the Hague, tomorrow the entire Netherlands!
02:20.00 And I already said it…
02:24.00 The campaign has begun. And whoever has seen the poll of Maurice de Hond [a major polling bureau]…
02:30.00 has seen that today with 27 seats we…
02:34.00 are already virtually the largest party in the Netherlands!
02:40.00 And the figure…
02:44.00 the figure I want to whisper you is the number 5. Because that…
02:48.00 is our list number on June 9 [national elections].
02:52.00 Our 5 will be the winning number for the Netherlands.
02:56.00 With that number 5 — list 5 — we will reconquer the Netherlands…
03:00.00 from that leftist elite that still believes in the…
03:04.00 coddling of criminals…
03:08.00 that still believes in the use of Islam and the multi-nonsense and the nonsense of development aid…
03:12.00 and the European super-state. But luckily the rest of the Netherlands…
03:16.00 thinks very differently. That silent majority…
03:20.00 deserves a voice. And with list 5 on June 9…
03:24.00 we will conquer the Netherlands.
03:28.00 
03:34.00 Today the voter in Almere and The Hague has chosen a…
03:38.00 new, better and stronger voice for a city.
03:42.00 The voice of the PVV. And I predict to you, on June 9…
03:46.00 we together with those hundreds of thousands of others…
03:50.00 maybe even a few million Dutch people, who believe in a safer and…
03:54.00 stronger Netherlands with less criminality, and less Islam,…
03:58.00 will make sure that we will have a sounding victory. I want to make one prediction,…
04:01.00 and I dare to do that: we will have a chance, no… on June 9 we will …
04:07.00 become the largest party of the Netherlands.
04:11.00 
04:14.00

A ray of hope bursts forth from the gloom that shrouds Northern Europe. Congratulations, Geert!

Thanks everyone for the translation, Well done Geert.

Quoting Wilders: "Agnes, many thanks". LOL! Perfect.

The results of this election demonstrate to the flowery-pajama brigrades & opposing political parties they are surrounded by growing and victorious PVV.

Yesterday's and June's elections were never about Geert Wilders. It's always been about the Netherlands.

Hooray for the PVV!

Thank God! My prayers have been answered.

Geert Wilders is the Abraham Lincoln of Holland.

I see things like this, and while hopeful, I can only see one way this is going to end. It repeats in a mantra in my mind.

They're going to kill him. Somehow, some way, they're going to kill him. It won't even matter how he dies, only that he does.

I could be wrong, but I don't see a thousand more waiting to step up, take up the fight and those same risks he has. Someone's going to take this man out of the equation. I hate to say it like that, but I see no other way this can end, short of preemptive armed insurrection.

I'm not saying be hopeful, but the realist in me is saying this is the most likely outcome. I suppose the question becomes...what then?

Sorry,K'thardin. I just can't let your comments stand. Not especially after my post where I said that Geert Wilder's electoral victory is the answer to my prayers. I wish him well and a long and prosperous life and political career.

K'thardin:

I think it is too late now to kill Geert. He would become a proper martyr, and if there's anything the islamists understand, it's martyrs.
I think this kind of pessimism does no one any good. What about the thousands of people who voted for the PVV and the thousands more that would have in other cities? Killing Geert is not going to stop anything now, and believing it is the first step in making it a reality.
