THE HAGUE, Netherlands, March 7 (UPI) -- The Netherlands is on a terror alert over a movie almost no one has seen -- an anti-Koran film produced by conservative politician Geert Wilders.
Dutch anti-terrorism coordinator Tjibbe Joustra said he raised the threat level to its second-highest mark partly because of the film, "Fitna," ANP reported.
How many people will ever see the 15-minute movie is unclear. Wilders has said any broadcaster who airs it must show the entire work, and the newspaper de Volksrant said its own survey showed none were willing to commit to that.
ANP said sources close to the producer say he plans, if all else fails, to show "Fitna" at a news conference in The Hague. "Fitna" is also expected to be available online.
