A Finnish supermarket chain that publishes and distributes free newsletters dealing with issues that the mainstream media refuses to cover has been fined $65000 for promoting”Antisemitic hatespeech.”
From JTA:
The Ylivieska-Raahe district court imposed the fine Monday for articles that appeared in recent months in Magneettimedia, which is published and distributed by the Juha Karkkainen supermarket chain, the news site Kaleva.fi reported.
Articles that have appeared in the newsletter over the past few years include “Zionist Terrorism in Norway”; “CNN, Goldman Sachs and Zionist Control”; and “How to Break Down and Dominate the Zionists.”
Juha Karkkainen, who owns the chain, said Wednesday that he would appeal the verdict, according to a report by the Etela-Suomen Sanomat daily.
Karkkainen claimed in court that his publication was an alternative media outlet publishing information that mainstream media organizations would not, the Finnish broadcaster YLE reported.
The court rejected the argument, finding that the articles constituted hate speech, but did not grant the prosecutor’s request for a suspended jail term.
Magneettimedia has a readership of 360,000, according to the Iltalehti daily.
The trial against Karkkainen began following two complaints filed in February against the chain store — by the Central Council of Jewish Communities in Finland and by an identified individual.
The literature contained, among other things, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and information showing that the Jews did 9/11.
Please note that while Antisemites are fined and threatened with prison time for merely pointing to Jew criminals, Finland has some of the most liberal pornography laws in the world, which exist under the guise of “free speech.”
