More "human rights" tribunal sillyness

Can the following decision by the BC Human Rights Tribunal be translated as anything other than "but they had money and lawyers and publicity this time"?

It ruled that the article, an excerpt from Mr. Steyn's book America Alone, contained historical, religious and factual inaccuracies, relied on common Muslim stereotypes and tried to "rally public opinion by exaggeration and causing the reader to fear Muslims."

"But fear is not synonymous with hatred and contempt," the tribunal wrote. "With all its inaccuracies and hyperbole, [the article] has resulted in political debate which, in our view, [B. C.'s hate speech human rights law] was never intended to suppress.

What makes the whole incident even more farcical are on the on-camera comments of the head of the organization which launched the complaint.
