Dutch prosecutors ask judges for Geert Wilders acquittal

 Dutch prosecutors have argued that Wilder's comparing of Islam to Nazism and Koran to Hitler's Mein Kampf, and urging it's banning, and to stop Muslim immigration were "within the legal bounds of public debate". They also argued there was "insufficient proof to convict him of trying to polarize Dutch society into antagonistic groups". They have asked for him to be acquitted on all charges but judges can disagree with prosecution in the Dutch legal system. Wilders has never called for violence.
