Netherlands: Antisemitic inciter only gets a small fine by Public Prosecutor

Via Bad News From the Netherlands blog

A pizza baker, Rachid El H., tweeted in 2012 extreme antisemitic messages including: “Only answer for Israel: Total extermination of the cockroaches” and “Hitler wasn’t much compared to the Israelis. Somebody should have taken over Hitler’s task of sixty years ago.”
