The Fallacy of prosecuting Oriana Fallaci for Thought Crimes against Islam (AGI) - L'Aquila, Italy, May 24 - This is a familiar tactic to bog down a fearless writer in lawsuits. So that she would not have time enough to write what exposes the Muslims. This is similar to Filibustering to keep the issue under discussion and avoid a decision.
 We hope Oriana will use this public platform of the trial to clarify why she said what she has said. She can use the material that she already has and that available on the web, that can justify what she has said and the bloodied track record of Islam. Borg_____________________
The plaintiff Adel Smith, is who is a Muslim convert, says that in Oriana Fallaci's book "The Force of Reason" there are expressions that are "unequivocally offensive to Islam and Muslims,". Armando Grasso the Bergamo preliminary investigative judge, who accepting the Adel Smith's complaint, ordered the prosecution to formulate the charge "according to article 406 of article 403 of the criminal code," for defamation of Islam. Fallaci the well-known author, therefore, will be put on trial. Adel Smith, president of the Italian Muslim Union, sued the writer on April 8, 2004, after "also in other writings Oriana Fallaci had propagated hate against Islam and Muslims, distorting real historical facts and inventing others, lying, offending, and defaming Muslims around the world. For the rest, ever since "Anger and Pride" the writer has injured Islam and Muslims, writing expressions such as 'fucking sons of Allah'," said Smith. The Bergamo Prosecution is taking on the trial, since the book was published in the city, and now has ten days to come up with a charge. The preliminary hearing judge will set the trial date. Matteo Nicoli of Verona will represent Adel Smith. We hope Oriana will use this public platform of the trial to clarify why she said what she has said. She can use the material that she already has and that available on the web, that can justify what she has said and the bloodied track record of Islam. Story Credits: AGI
