If you have bothered to read what I was responding to, you don’t need to ask this question.

If you ask the question without even having read, I can’t be bothered to respond.

I just found the link and read it.

Ms. Le Pen is also being investigated in connection with accusations that she paid National Front aides with money from funds provided by the European Union. According to the accusations, she was involved in a phony-jobs scheme in which aides working for her and other National Front deputies at the Parliament were actually carrying out party work.

The lifting of her parliamentary immunity concerns only the case involving the Islamic State photographs and not the more serious accusations of misusing European Union funds.

The Islamic State photos she retweeted were something like agitprop. They were intended to shock and slur an entire group of people (Muslims) over the actions of a very few (criminal murderers).

The EU does have different laws concerning speech than the USA. As such, tweeting violent criminal acts (murder by beheading) is not considered protected speech in Europe.

Does that make their law “bullshit” as you put it? FOX News did something similar (comparing Dr. Edward Tiller to a murderer of babies) and it got him assassinated.

That’s the power of agitprop. Bill O’Reilly in a just nation would be in jail for setting in motion a murderer.
