For seven years now, my lawyer and I have been asking the judges what exactly I am supposed to have said or done that forms the basis of their prosecution.
"Where and how, exactly, did I incite to hatred?"
It is still completely unclear to this day.
Judge Mieke Butstraen (Court of Appeal) finally iresponded to this in the ruling. She only did so because she was obliged to do so due to the ๐ฐ๐ฃ๐ด๐ค๐ถ๐ณ๐ช ๐ญ๐ช๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ญ๐ช objection we raised in our written submissions.
Judge Butstraen wrote:
โIt is not the case that it must be specified which concrete material acts the accused is precisely alleged to have committed.โ
Well, if even ๐๐๐๐ isnโt required anymore, what is your ๐ซ๐๐ฅ๐ ๐จ๐ ๐ฅ๐๐ฐ still worth then? What does such a ruling even mean anymore? Absolutely nothing!
The 30th of December, the Supreme Court will decide wether this ruling, that convicted me to a prison sentence, holds.

The above mentioned ruling dates from earlier this year, but I'm writing about it because something miraculous happened in one of my other court cases for hate speech (officially called 'incitement to hatred').
For the first time in 7 years of court cases, a judge actually asked the Public Prosecutor to provide concrete evidence.
In a case wherein I am prosecuted because of a lecture I gave at Leuven University, a judge from the Leuven Court of First Instance asked the Public Prosecutor to specify where and how exactly I 'incited to hatred'.
This must seem completely normal to an international audience, and rightly so, because just as you can only defend yourself against accusations for murder if you know WHO you've allegedly murdered, it's impossible to defend yourself against accusations of 'incitement to hatred' if the public prosecutors (and the courts, in all but this case), refuse to tell you HOW you incited to hatred.
But in Belgium we are far from normality, so even such a slight resemblance of a functional court is a unique breath of fresh air in a suffocating legal environment.
Sadly, today I received the answer of the Leuven Public Prosecutor and it's just as bad as the above mentioned judge Mieke Butstraen. Public Prosecutor Veerle Devos writes:
"The Public Prosecutor states that it is essential to look at the totality of the lecture and not at concrete parts of the lecture to determine the intent of the defendant (Dries Van Langenhove).
During the lecture by the defendant, certain groups of society were negatively generalised or linked to criminality, intellectual inferiority or dangers to society. The cumulative effect of such statements creates negative stereotypes and an "us-them" narrative. The lecture, thereby, normalised discriminatory thought patterns."
In short: they can't and won't specify anything. If they feel that I incited to hatred, that's enough.
We will have to wait until next year to see if the judge will accept this -- as all of his colleagues have before.
In any case, my real fate will be decided on the 30th of December in the Supreme Court. Thank you for your prayers and support.

After we've remigrated the hostile invaders, we should pivot some of the catch-and-deport-squads to track down and eliminate scammers worldwide.
Every day, thousands of vulnerable and elderly Europeans have their savings or pensions stolen because foreigners abuse their high-trust mindset with impunity. No more!
These eliminations should be televised and the huge profits that this will bring should be used to reimburse the victims.

In one of Paris' biggest shopping malls, a 13-year-old girl went to the toilet at KFC. She was followed by "four men" who locked her in and gangr4ped her, filming everything.
I would bet my life on what group these "four men" belong to, but if I say which group, I will face a higher prison sentence than these animals.

Exactly seven years ago, islamic terrorist Chรฉrif Chekatt opened fire at the Strasbourg Christmas market. The Algerian migrant shot and stabbed his way through the market while screaming โAllahu Akbarโ, demanding his victims tell him if they were Christian before he shot them through the head. Five people were killed, eleven seriously injured.
Before the attack, Chekatt was already convicted 27 (!!!) times for a total of 67 crimes in France alone. He was known to police as a potential terrorist, but still free to roam the country and obtain illegal firearms.
This is one of the many forgotten terrorist attacks that our media and politicians sweep under the rug. Letโs make sure it is forgotten no more. We demand remigration of hostile invaders and prison for politicians that deliberately facilitated these crimes.

Yet another local farm stand got plundered by migrants this morning, this time in the small countryside town of Hunsel. These last semblances of a high-trust society are rapidly disappearing due to incessant, shameless theft by hostile invaders.

Another mass shooting prevented in the nick of time.
Last weekend in Leipzig, Germany, a 27-year-old Syrian was denied entry to a nightclub next to the Christmas market because it was full.
The Syrian, who was known to police for prior offences, left the scene but returned minutes later and pulled an AK-47 from his jacket. He luckily failed to correctly insert the magazine and security staff were able to tackle and disarm him.
But that's not the most shocking part. The shocking part is this: he was RELEASED on bail pending investigations.
The war in Syria is over. Every Syrian should be remigrated immediately.
