Trial of author Oriana Fallaci, charged with defaming Islam, opens in Italy

Monday’s hearing was largely devoted to technicalities, and the proceedings were adjourned to June 26, said Matteo Nicoli, a lawyer for the Muslim activist who brought the lawsuit against Fallaci.

Islamic activist Adel Smith, who also was not in court, charged that some passages in Fallaci’s book, The Strength of Reason, were offensive to Islam. His lawyer cited a phrase from the book that refers to Islam as “a pool … that never purifies.”
