How Many More Kangaroo Courts Can European Democracy Endure?

Some people are suggesting that the granting of a retrial to Geert Wilders, after the PROSECUTION asked for an acquittal, is a victory – such a notion is risible! Mr Wilders has been victimised and exposed to a kangaroo court for long enough now. When will this man be able to get on with his life? How many retrials will there be before the prosecution succeeds in is goal of prosecuting Mr Wilders? A victory for free speech would have been an acquittal and a public apology from those who brought these scurrilous and politically motivated charges in the first place. In the meantime, the Dutch state is free to intimidate with impunity all those who speak out against Europe’s ruling regime which now takes the form of a kind of civilian junta.

How many more people will be persecuted before people stand up and say No! to the people who are curtailing our freedom and oppressing the people of the continent? We see in other parts of the EU that persecuting dissidents is its new modus operandi. In Austria, Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff is being similarly persecuted and there is no sign of the authorities backing down on that outrageous prosecution either. Perhaps they will put her on trial several times until they manage to pervert true justice and convict her. Maybe they will cry “CONFESS”, “CONFESS”, and apply hot irons until she finally relents!

It is as if the “powers that be” are bringing these cases as a means to terrorise all potential dissidents into silence and servile compliance. The EU has now descended into rule by fear, fear of being dragged into a Star Chamber on dubious charges, and fear of having your life and that of your family turned upside down. How long will it be before EU member states, which are now governed by the Lisbon Treaty which seems to be modelled on the constitution of the Soviet Union, do away with trails altogether? How long before a secret police force is put together that will ‘disappear’ those, from both left and right, who speak out against the regime.

Victory in the Wilders case would be acquittal for him, abolition of the dubious laws that made the prosecution possible, and the guarantee of free speech across the entire European Union. It would mean the ending of the prosecution of Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff. Finally it would mean compensation being paid for the hurt and distress caused to all those directly affected by these outrageous witch hunts and sincere and unambiguous apologies from those who directed them. That would be victory, that would be justice!
