Dutch Film Insulting, Not Criminal

From the NY Times:

Geert Wilders, a Dutch legislator, will not be prosecuted on charges of inciting hatred of Muslims for his film and comments written for a Dutch newspaper, prosecutors announced. Mr. Wilders’s film, “Fitna,” or “Ordeal” in Arabic, and his published remarks, in which he called the Koran fascist, were hurtful and insulting, but not criminal, the prosecutors said. The film juxtaposed verses in the Koran against a background of images of terrorism by Islamic radicals. It aroused protests around the Muslim world after it was released online in March.
