january 29th 2004 • PROCES PERDU! L'UEJF et la LICRA, qui veulent censurer le site costes.org, prétendent que Costes a créé un nouveau site internet afin de le faire condamner. Ce qui est FAUX. Le juge a reconnu que Costes n'a pas crée de nouveau site, mais il estime qu'en prenant un nom de domaine il a facilité l'accès à son site, ce qui revient à le republier. D'après lui, les faits ne sont pas prescrits. Ce jugement ouvre la voie à la condamnation de Costes, accusé d'être raciste et d'inciter au meurtre! Costes sera encore jugé en 2004 et son site risque d'être censuré. Ca fait 8 ans que Costes est persécuté par l'UEJF et la LICRA alliés au MRAP et la LDH. • SHUT UP COSTES! For 7 years Costes has been prosecuted beacause of his website, charged of being a racist call to murder! Today Costes lost his courtcase and will be judged again in 2004. If sentenced guilty, he will have to pay a heavy fine and his website will be censored by the French state.
