Check this guy out.....he's the prototype of Trump...... Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders goes on trial for inciting hatred Politician in court over comments he made about Dutch Moroccans, but insists he will not be silenced Geert Wilders, the far-right politician who was acquitted five years ago of making anti-Islam remarks, has gone on trial again for allegedly inciting hatred against the Dutch Moroccan minority. The case comes as Wilders and other populist politicians – including Donald Trump in the US and Marine le Pen in France – have won support by calling for a ban on Muslim immigration. Wilders, with his trademark peroxide blond hair, joked with reporters at the start of the hearing and listened calmly as prosecutors detailed the charges. He says the trial is politically motivated and that his comments are protected by his right to free speech. “Freedom of expression is not absolute, it is paired with obligations and responsibilities,” said the lead prosecutor, Wouter Bos, “the responsibility not to set groups of people against each other.” “Racism and hatred of foreigners constitute a direct violation of the basis of freedom, democracy and the rule of law,” he added. State prosecutors say Wilders asked a crowd of supporters in March 2014 whether they wanted more or fewer Moroccans in the Netherlands, triggering the chant “Fewer! Fewer! Fewer!”, to which a smiling Wilders responded: “We’ll take care of that.” reuters.com
