Dutch politician Geert Wilders is being tried for "hate speech." He
is charged with inciting hatred against Muslims. If convicted he
faces up to one year in prison.

I'm not a free speech scholar but I think there's a restriction on
speech that incites violence. Flag-burning may come under such a caveat.
[Arlo]
Can you explain the distinction you make between "inciting hatred"
and "inciting violence"?
Do you make any distinction between protests that burn an American
flag, and those that burn a Koran?
