Just found this. If you know a writer or journalist, you might want to give this site. Obama has
cosponsored with Egypt and the UN that Americans printing anything that could be considered
as hatred is a crime.
Better summed up as: "'Hatred' and 'incitement' are, of course, in the eye of the beholder -- or
more precisely, in the eye of those who make such determinations. The powerful can decide to
silence the powerless by classifying their views as 'hate speech"
US Freedom of Speech laws usually protect US writers or journalists but as with most things, Obama
is doing all he can to remove any and all protections for US citizens under our laws as he moves
the US to unity with NATO.
This is an example of how out of control this will get now that the agreement has been established.
Keep in mind the following was prior to the agreement.
Joe Sharkey, a New Jersey-based writer often carried by The New York Times, reported on the
aftermath of a plane crash he survived over the Amazon, and a woman in Brazil sued him for libel
for offending the dignity of Brazil by criticizing its air traffic control. The woman is demanding
$500,000 and apologies in national and international media outlets.
Obama, Egypt and the UN calling on states to condemn and criminalize 'any advocacy of national,
racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence.
The danger with this is that Islam usually is not considered religious persecution since most in the UN
approve of Islam. This means that Islam may be allowed to openly attack Christians but Christians
will not be able to respond. Any response will be seen as an act of hatred by those who decide
such things as mentioned above.
