The case is a perversion of the law and should be thrown out. As long as that book, the Koran, with its blatant Jew hatred, is held sacred by the collective group(Muslims) that collective will always be held suspect, feared and treated as a underclass “other” by the Jews and enlightened people in the Western world.

Next thing you know, I’ll have something to agree with Noam Chomsky about. Nah. Some things are simply not meant to be. OK, so I lied a tiny bit. I do not *entirely* agree with Pipes. I’m a Canadian and there is no Canadian equivalent to First Amendment rights—nor should there be. Free speech is not unlimited speech and I think that Mr Wilders may have crossed the line. We certainly agree, however, that Mr Wilders should be permitted to make his case publicly—whether the public is in the UK, Holland, the US, or Canada. Daniel Pipes and I agree on something?! Wow.
