A court in Finland, an EU member state in good standing, has ordered Finnish politician Jussi Halla-aho to stand trial for blasphemy and incitement of an ethnic group. His transgression: posting an entry on his blog calling Mohammed a pedophile for marrying a 6-year-old girl and consumating the marriage when she was 9. (The account of this marriage comes from reliable Islamic sources.)
The EU prides itself on standing for Western values; does anyone remember what those values are? Freedom of speech or freedom of religion, anybody?
