Trial of Geert Wilders Takes a Kafkaesque turn
Any one who still claims that the trial against Geert Wilders MP, leader of the Party for Freedom (9 seats in Parliament and 27 in the polls), which starts on the 20th of January, is not a political process: get a grip. Accused by the Dutch 'Openbaar Ministerie'
Must be their version of a Justice Dept based on content elsewhere
exactly a year ago for insulting Islam, comparing the Koran to Mein Kampf and delivering hate speeches, the coming trial against Wilders suddenly got a Kafkaesque and potentially murderous twist. Finally, seven days before his first day in Court, all fangs were out and faces off.

"It is irrelevant whether Wilder's witnesses might prove Wilders' observations to be correct"
"It is irrelevant whether Wilder's witnesses might prove Wilders' observations to be correct", the 'Openbaar Ministerie' stated, "what's relevant is that his observations are illegal".

On top of this, Paul Vellerman, the public prosecutor of the Amsterdam Court decided that the Wilders trial had to be regarded as "an ordinary trial open for public and with a normal procedure, which doesn't deserve the Department of Justice's highly secured bunker.
I think the message there is 'Assassination Welcome'
His is a normal case and we'll treat it as such".
