The controversial French comedian, Dieudonné M’bala M’bala, has been sentenced to two months in jail by a Belgian court for incitement to hatred over racist and antisemitic comments he made during a show.

Dieudonné, who has faced similar cases in France, was also fined €9,000 (£6,300) by the court in Liège. He was not in court for the verdict.

Eric Lemmens, a lawyer for Belgium’s Jewish organisations, told Agence France-Presse that the judgment “says that all the accusations against Dieudonné were established – both incitement to hatred and hate speech but also Holocaust denial”. The charges related to a show in Liège in 2012. “For me this is more than satisfying, this is a major victory,” he said.

Dieudonné can appeal the decision.

Incitement to hatred?

Are those euros freaking nuts?

Hatred is an emotion, not a crime, in the rational world.

The totalitarian swine do not take to being called totalitarian swine.

They do not like to have their noses rubbed into it in public.

They've become the very nazis they like to yelp about.

YES.

This is not a joke -- there's no punchline. It's not hyperbole, comic relief or blowing off steam. They are criminally insane demons from hell and they are bent on destroying everything we value and are. THEY ARE CRAZY and "a danger to others and themselves".
