Organizers of Geert Wilders’ lecture still searching for venue

The organizers of a Prague lecture to be delivered by the Dutch anti-Islamist politician Geert Wilders are having trouble finding a venue for the event. Mr Wilders’ planned appearance at the Czech Senate was banned, and efforts to set up the lecture at Prague’s Aventin Palace have also come to nothing after the palace management distanced itself from the event. Mr Wilders has been invited to present his views and screen his controversial movie, Fitna, by a Czech anti-Islamist website and Civic Democrat senator, Jiří Oberfalzer. On Monday, a Czech Muslim organization also invited Mr Wilders to a debate on the subject.
