At least the case will be heard in a US court

I normally dismiss the writings of Jeff Jacoby, a Boston Globe columnist, as overly conservative. However, I have to agree with his column today. He writes of a suit by the Islamic Society of Boston against Ahmed Mansour, who has said that he has seen radical newsletters, books and videos in the library at the mosque of the society. He believes that they espouse ''fanatical beliefs that insult other people's religions." If he were being tried in his native Egypt, I'm sure at least jail would be his fate if he loses.
