Under a section of Germany's criminal code, the government has to authorise prosecutors to pursue a case against the comedian, Jan Böhmermann, who is accused of insulting a foreign leader.

"There were different opinions between the coalition partners - the conservatives and the SPD (Social Democrats)," the German Chancellor Ms Merkel told reporters in Berlin.

"The outcome is that the German government will give the authorisation in the current case," she added, stressing that this was not a decision about the merits of the prosecution's case against Böhmermann.

However, the German leader also announced that the country would by 2018 scrap the rarely enforced section 103 of the criminal code - insulting representatives of foreign states - as a result of the embarrassing affair.

I knew comedy would come to a end in the next decade or 2 given that you are not allowed to offend certain parts of society., but this is ridiculous.

I wonder if Merkel still remembers going on that 'I am Charlie' march in Paris?

bend over for eu  democracy merkel and erdogan style haha

12% of them are mussies..

usual suspects sweating up and frothing at the mouth. 

Germany has a silly law. The comedian knew it was a silly law and deliberately and blatantly flouted the law to invite prosecution. The comedian gets his wish. 

If the Germans have any respect for free speech they will repeal the relevant law.

Erdogan what sweetheart he is, not the first time he has ran crying to the law when someone takes the p1ss out of him.
Funny thing is he tries to pass himself off as some kind of hard big man of Turkey? More like a Turkish Delight if you ask me, the big m1nge.

Has for that idiot Merkel is there no limit to her stupidity? Why didn’t she remind him that Germany has millions of Turks living there and if he dosn’t fook off being a tit she will send the ungrateful bastards back home.

Its like this. Germanys laws apply to Germany. They are based upon the assumption that its citizens are free. They don`t have to account for their behavior to anyone but themselves.

Their honor though is the limits they place on their actions. They have no place for King or Kaiser. This is why they can have the luxury of having such a law because they can be fairly happy it won`t be abused. They know they can say all manner of things against their own leader and others and nothing will become of it.
Say the most horrible things about the US president and you will not be alone, many thousands of Germans have done so...and many thousands of Americans have done so.

And that is the difference. So the question is why? The west must stop and tell less civilisied countries that no they cannot presume on our good nature.

Perhaps it is not the law that is silly. Politeness is a delight, for civilised people.
There is not a single rule or regulation that does not have its charm...in a beautiful country like Germany.

Conceit is of primary concern to a tyrant,perhaps Erdogan should look at himself more closely and the EU should look at him more closely than it has been doing.
