If Wilders is condemned, the whole principles of human rights are forgotten by the judges ..

It is very important that Wilders is recognised as innocent.

Because if he was not, it would mean that the judges are now unable to understand the principles of our democratic states, the very essential principles wich are that democracy and human right have to be defend against those who want to destroy them, like the partisans of califat and islamisation.

So Wilders is, in accordance with our essential democratics principles , alerting against the danger of the empowerment of those partisan of califat and islamisation of the right in the sens of "sharia".

If he was condemned, that would mean that the europeans judges, have no more in mind, as a scale of interpretation, the principles of human right and democraty, but, the principles of charia that is of an absolute forbidding of critic of islam.

I recall the Universal declaration of human rights of 1948 :

Article 29.

• (...)
• (3) These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations.

Article 30.

• Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein.
