Dutch lawmaker to make sequel to anti-Islamic film

THE HAGUE, Netherlands - A Dutch lawmaker says he plans to make a sequel to the anti-Islamic movie that sparked protests among Muslims around the world last year.

Geert Wilders says in an interview with a Dutch newspaper that the film will likely come out next year.

He says it will be different from "Fitna," the film he released on the Internet that coupled images of terror attacks with verses from the Quran.

"This is the next phase," Wilders says in the interview printed in Thursday's edition of De Telegraaf.

Wilders leads the Freedom Party, which has nine lawmakers in the 120-seat Dutch Parliament.

He was banned from visiting Britain in February because the government deemed him a threat to "community harmony and therefore public security."
