<p><a href="http://cdn.frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/geert.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-73584" title="Netherlands Hate Speech" src="http://cdn.frontpagemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/geert.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="273" /></a></p>
<p>As reported in <a href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/10/dutch-kangaroo-court-hears-muslims-complaints-against-wilders.html" target="_blank">this story</a>,  a Muslim&#8217;s written complaint against Geert Wilders at his trial today  claimed that &#8220;My family and I no longer feel safe in the Netherlands,&#8221;  because of his criticism of Islam and of Muslim communities&#8217; conduct  while living in the West, and because of his film, <em><a href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/10/wilders-show-trial-views-fitna.html" target="_blank">Fitna</a></em>.</p>
<p>The claim seems like a far-fetched sob story, but it was nonetheless  part of a presentation intended to represent broader Muslim opinion in  order to sway the court against Wilders. And it is part of a larger  trend than this court case.</p>
<p>Indeed, as one recalls the past few months, there has been a  detectable change in approach among Islam&#8217;s spokespeople and apologists.</p>
<p>One hardly even sees anymore the formerly classic moves to deflect  criticism of Islam&#8217;s teachings: the old chestnuts like &#8220;You don&#8217;t speak  Arabic and you&#8217;re missing the subtlety,&#8221; or &#8220;You&#8217;re cherry-picking  verses and interpreting them out of context,&#8221; or the magical apologetic  sleight of hand by which the &#8220;Sahih,&#8221; or &#8220;sound&#8221; ahadith suddenly become  less &#8220;Sahih&#8221; when their accounts of appalling behavior by Muhammad are  quoted critically by non-Muslims.</p>
<p>Rather, there is a curious uniformity lately in attempts to portray <em>all criticism of Islam</em> as incitement, and examples abound. Among others, there is Daisy Khan&#8217;s  assertion that opponents of the Ground Zero mega-mosque represent a  kind &#8220;<a href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/08/wow-daisy-khan-calls-opposition-to-ground-zero-mosque-metastasized-antisemitism.html" target="_blank">metastasized anti-semitism</a>&#8221; aimed at Muslims.  There is Reza Aslan&#8217;s <a href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/10/questions-for-reza-aslan.html" target="_blank">slanderous labeling</a> of Stop the Islamization of America as a Neo-Nazi group, thus implying Nazi-like intentions on its part.</p>
