When a country is at war, its laws tend to support that war effort over many other things. It doesn’t excuse everything of course, but limiting speech that supports the enemy in a war is an obvious thing to do. That of course doesn’t stop the enemy or the enemy’s supporters (like Al Jazeera here and I suppose many commenters here) from disliking such laws.
Betteridge’s law.
