Judge Clears Geert Wilders
Good news, my trip to Amsterdam's red light district is back on! Looks like the Dutch aren't going to prosecute Geert Wilders after all:
A judge has ruled in a case against MP Geert Wilders brought by the Dutch Islamic Federation that Mr Wilders is not guilty of spreading hate, although his statements are provocative. The Islamic Federation wanted a judgement on the Freedom Party's leader after he compared the Qur'an to Mein Kampf. However the judge ruled that members of parliament have to be able to express their opinions strongly.Thanks to Stable Hand.
UPDATE: Israel Matzav has video.
