Jussi Halla-aho Interview

Tundra Tabloids recently posted this video in which the Finnish Councillor and eminent scholar of Slavonic languages Jussi Halla-aho provides an insight into his recent trial. This was essentially a show trial in which Halla-aho was charged for drawing public attention to the fact that it is officially sanctioned to make derogatory statements about Finns as an ethnic and national group, but not about Somalis. The verdict of the trial should be forthcoming within the next week or so. If this man is found guilty, it will be a sad indictment of the state of the Finnish judicial and political system.
