Geert Wilders, who was on trial in The Netherlands facing five charges of inciting racial and religious hatred for remarks which included equating Islam with fascism, has won a retrial after it came to light that one of the judges attempted to influence an expert witness before the trial.
Even the prosecutors in the case, Amsterdam public prosecutors Birgit van Roessel and Paul Velleman, testified in court that Wilders was not guilty of discrimination against Muslims and inciting hatred against them.
"In June 2008, Dutch prosecutors had initially refused to bring charges against Wilders, arguing that he was protected by the right to free speech. But in January 2009, they were overruled by an appeals court led by Judge Tom Schalken, who ordered that Wilders be charged for 'sowing hatred'." Judge Schalken, by the way, is the judge who "attempted to influence an expert witness before the trial."
Joe Hicks, a former Leftist, now at PJTV, talked about all this the other day, and had some harsh words for European (especially the Dutch) Elites who can accurately be described as appeasers in this whole controversy. You can watch the Joe Hicks video by clicking below.
