In a case that is reminiscent of the "hate speech" charge brought against Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff in Austria, a magazine editor in Switzerland has been indicted for "denigrating Islam" in his "racist" utterances on television. This quasi-legal farce is an obvious reprisal for his support of the minaret ban.
