Dutch PM requests French help with Anti-Islam Film

    Dutch Prime Minister Jan Peter Balkenende requested France to show solidarity should his country suffer any fallout over an anti-Islamic film made by Dutch right-wing parliamentarian, Geert Wilders. Without going into any details, Balkenende told reporters, We have indicated that if necessary we will need diplomatic support. Sarkozy’s spokesperson responded that the French president had suggested establishing a European Union fund to protect people threatened by murky fanatics over issues of freedom of speech in the EU.
