"Protecting human rights, respecting differences between people and demonstrating this respect are as important in a democratic society as the fight against violence. If a person occupying a high position in society, a person whom people naturally respect, fails to accept these principles in his public speeches, or even makes fun of them, this can encourage or support aggressive behaviour in society. If the Head of Government of a European Union Member State makes jokes at a public gathering about Hitler and his atrocities, and gives them a positive context, such behaviour must therefore be publicly condemned, because any failure to condemn it may lead to the general social acceptance of such behaviour. I therefore call on Silvio Berlusconi to reconsider not only his idiotic jokes about Hitler, but also his tasteless and – I might add – stupid recommendations to young women, which are perhaps the result either of a partial loss of judgment, or of a lack of decency and respect for women."@en1
