- Judges Bruglia and Bertuzzi agreed that her comparisons of Israel to the Nazi regime and assertions of genocide exceeded legally protected political critique.
- The prosecution spearheaded by federal prosecutor Carlos Stornelli with DAIA support triggered the application of Argentina’s statutes on incitement to religious hatred.
- The court emphasized that the mass and decontextualized nature of social media posts removes any clear separation between state criticism and hatred toward the Jewish community.
- With the appellate decision in place, Biasi is now one procedural step away from facing an oral trial under the country’s anti-discrimination framework.
