One man and his ideas after how many years of putting up with the other side trying to kill him, his family and the rest of his nation? Hummm yea why?

Like the many state supported schools of their neighbors having teachings which depict jews as deserving death. How so one sided/blind you are.
No bias from mlurp either, huh?

So why is it that when someone from the loony fringe of an Arab country speaks, it's all over the media and portrayed as normal and followed shortly by condemnations by western leaders and threats of war and sanctions?

Because America needs a boogeyman, now that the USSR is over, and Islam is it.

Because we have to believe every single Muslim is a violent nutjob, out to kill us all, or the whole reason for about half of our military and govt expenditures become pointless.

Because the Administration needs to keep us distracted and in a constant state of terror, so they can do what they really want to do, in the name of our safety.

Surely, you know this.

9-11, I assume. Good ratings, too. And govt talking points which support an agenda of demonizing.

Obviously he is taking a leaf out of the Islamic fundamentalist's book. Muslim extremists have been calling for the death of unbelievers, not just Jews, on a much grander scale for many years. Most of their vile rhetoric does not make headlines either, just secondary stories.

Perhaps one day both the Israelis and their enemies will be successful in wiping each other out.

Hardly seems fair to kill people for their preferences.

Oh, I think it's not too great that he's advocating the murder of all anti-Semitic people, but I also don't think it's hateful that he is doing so. I just think it's morally wrong.
