Czech Muslims extend invitation to Geert Wilders

Czech Muslims have called for a public debate with the controversial Dutch politician Geert Wilders. A spokesman for a Brno grouping of Muslims and sympathisers said they had sent an offer on Monday to rent halls in Prague and Brno where Mr Wilders can screen his anti-Islamic film, Fitna, and afterwards engage in a debate. A top Civic Democrat senator last week invited Wilders to screen his film in the Czech upper house of parliament but the move was blocked by Senate bosses.
