Oriana Fallaci Faces Defamation Charges in Italy

Want freedom of speech? You got it. But don't publish your book in Italy:
Top News Article | Reuters.com: "A judge has ordered best-selling writer and journalist Oriana Fallaci to stand trial in her native Italy on charges she defamed Islam in a recent book.

...

Fallaci lives in New York and has regularly provoked the wrath of Muslims with her outspoken criticism of Islam following the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on U.S. cities."
