From what I have heard it will be primarily released on the Internet.
I believe for one that this movie will arbiter the intellectual struggle between religious dogma and freedom of speech. Those who do not want to see it are free to turn their heads away.
Yes, Fitna. Yet, I see those that ride over the herd may try a stampede instead.

actually you're right; that would cause just such a thing. some people will indeed want to cause an uproar; theo van gogh did that, but look at what happened to him
Ibrahim as you say, but what do you know about Invasio Barbarorum?

Could be one or the other,I'm not sure. Could even be both at the same time. It's been mentioned elsewhere here in the EB forum that the ancient Greeks had multiple words for any one thing,often used in different contexts.

Actually hoplo means "weapon" in modern Greek. When I was young I thought that hoplites meant "armed people" before I learned that hoplon was the hoplite's shield
