Don't patronize me, you misogynistic, Jew-hating moron. I am hardly deluding my "poor self". I am far more clear than you. We are an indigenous people, notwithstanding the repugnant attempt to deligitamize our claim to our ancestral home. Our nationalism is at the expense of no one, and my deep and abiding contempt for you and others like you who say otherwise grows daily. Frankly, I haven't an iota of care for what you think. You freaking British "Lawrence of Arabias" have cost enough Jewish lives already. I can only hope that Finsbury Park explodes in your self-righteous, smug pursed lips. You deserve what is coming for you.
32. The Usual Propaganda
California Bear ,   Berkeley, USA   (07.04.06)
This is typical Islamic propaganda but it also highlights a worrying trend in Western civilization: the prevalence of Western academics who not only sympathize with the goals of Islamic extremism but who actually provide aid and succor to the cause. It's absolutely preposterous that anyone would make a claim that a tiny country with a population of about six million would be the reason for the calamities which have befallen the Arab world. The real discussion should have been the utter shame in the reality that tiny Israel has to spend 10% of its GDP on defense because it's surrounded by lunatics.
33. Zionism IS the cancer in international affairs no?
(07.04.06)
Without Zionism, look how great the world would be, I mean look how Zionism really takes the stage in world affairs - - - Zionism causes Sudanese Arabs to massacre in the Darfur region Zionism causes Southern Thai Muslims to kill Buddhists Zionism causes FARC and the Columbian governtment to have civil war Zionism causes hunger in Africa Zionism causes terrorists in Iraq to kill their countrymen Zionism is a leading factor in global poverty Zionism makes Muslims in the West refuse to assimilate Zionism increases crime rates world wide Zionism is root of global warming Zionism is behind the military junta in Burma Zionism is a factor in the China - Taiwan dispute North Korean and Iran nukes have EVERYTHING to do with Zionism Zionism caused the Tsunami in 2005 Zionism is the reason for economic slowdown Zionism is the reason why men go bald Zionism is why Muslim immigrants in Europe don't get up a find a job Zionism is the reason why people think Muslims are linked to terrorists (it has nothing to do with the countless terrorist attacks...sheesh, you racists) The panel is right, internal problems in Arab countries IS attributable to Zionism. Not the incompetent greedy leaders that use Jews/Israel as a pinata to attack when things go wrong in their countries. I mean, without Zionism, Saudi Arabia et al would be a 1st world nations, with peace, prosperity and lead the world in Islamic unity. International violence would CEASE if Israel/Zionism/Jews were somehow gone from the earth. Jeez, its so plain to see...
34. Think about this
Josephus   (07.04.06)
Why is it that when Blacks, Muslims, Asians, etc have unity and nationalism, its cultural and seen as a good... But... When white people or Jews get together and are proud of who they are, we are facists and racists. Why should I be ashamed? There is just as much blood spilt in any people's history to be guilty of! Just cuz I am white don't make me feel bad for the Crusades...Didnt Muslims invade Europe on mulitple occassions? I think we are even... Jews...You do what you have to. Don't listen to these racist hate mongers
35. NETUREI KARTA HIGHLY PAID TRAITORS To Jews & All HUMANITY
Linda Rivera ,   New York   (07.04.06)
Allotments of large amounts of money to Rabbi Moshe Hirsch, the “foreign minister” of the ultra-orthodox, virulently anti-Zionist Jewish sect known as Neturei Karta. Two extraordinary payments of $25,000 ( January 13, 2002) and $30,000 ( February 14, 2002), show that Arafat often gave payoffs to Hirsch. Arafat uses Rabbi Moshe Hirsch as a tool for propaganda Among the hundreds of documents (captured from the Muqata during Operation Defensive Shield) dealing with money allotted by Arafat, two were found which related to large sums paid to Rabbi Hirsch for “expenses for activities.” The payments in question, one after an other, were unusually large ($25,000 on January 13, 2002, and $30,000 on February 14, 2002) and may indicate that Arafat paid him monthly. It should be noted that the amounts are significantly larger than those given to other cronies, which varied between a few hundred and a few thousand dollars. http://www.intelligence.org.il/eng/sib/9_04/araf_ap17.htm
36. ZIONISM - CANCER AT HEART OF INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
J. ISHMAEL ,   TORONTO ON   (07.04.06)
Rustum 28 said: ".... Jews have been hated for millenia simply because we were different and more importantly because we are JEWISH. You see, our religion itself poses a threat to Christianity and of course to Islam. Now that we have established why we have been hated for so long (although I could elaborate endlessly), it is quite easy to see why Anti-Zionism is another "sophisticated" term for Anti-Semitism. Because Zionism stems from our religion itself.." WOW. Another Jewish anti-semite. Anyway, Judeo-Zionism is even more cancerous than Jewish Zionism. I have come to the conclusion, that, though it is unlikely to occur, Israel should move to the scene of the crime:- Europe. There, it can run its Mini State for the Mob operation, replete with Nukes, genetic, bio and chem WMD.
37. Is this Muslim network an affiliate of the BBC?
Jenny   (07.04.06)
If not, they really should merge since they obviously present the same type of programs.
38. ...So spoke the ANTI-SEMITIC CANCER.
Márcia, a Zionist ,   Brazil   (07.04.06)
39. TERRORISM = ISLAM
soldier   (07.04.06)
HOW COME 90% OF THE TROUBLE IN THE WORLD IS CAUSED BY MUSLIMS? SOMEONE SHOULD CREATE A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT THE PARALELS BETWEEN ISLAM AND TERRORISM. IF ANYONE DISAGREES PLEASE ANSWER ME
40. Rustum liked it better when Jews were away from homeland,
Márcia ,   Brazil   (07.04.06)
living under somebody else's rule and unable to defend themselves.. Well, Rustum, get over your disappointment it, because there won't be another Shoah.
41. Useful
Jeremiah ,   USA   (07.05.06)
To the extent that it exposes how the anti-Semitism charge is used to stifle debate, and that Judaism and Zionism are not one and the same, it's a useful discussion.
42. #2 - all I got out of your post is...
wanda ,   montreal   (07.05.06)
...that Zionism is equivalent to terrorism.
43. Why anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism
Alan Hart ,   Kent, England   (07.05.06)
Most of the talkback comments were those of traumatised, deluded minds. For the sake of informed and honest debate, would you like to me e-mail you as an attachment the text of my opening statement?
44. To Rustum & Alan Hart:
Edan ,   Beer Sheva   (07.05.06)
Rustum - still awaiting your reply. Alan - Take a look at the example I give in paragragh 3 of my response, #26. This is an example that while, yes, the palestinians have suffered their share of tragedies, they can only be blamed on 1) Surrounding Arab countries and 2) Themselves. Blaming the jews can only be the result of 1) miseducation or plain ignorance or 2) hatred of jews. You can disagree with the policies of the Israeli government all you want. I myself frequently do. That is not antisemism and whoever says it is, is giving jews a bad name. Moreover, THAT should have been the issue at hand if any. When you reject our right to live in Israel as a sovereign state (ie, Anti-Zionism) you are rejecting our right to live ANYWHERE. How were you to feel if I were to tell you that the English have no right to a sovereign state in England. Does that make sense?? Did not the Anglo-Saxons who invaded the British Isles displace the native Celts ..?? Only in our case, we were living here long before.... Allow me to say sir, that you are a disgrace to the proffesion of journalism.
45. Rustum & Alan Hart (2):
Edan ,   Beer Sheva   (07.06.06)
I take it you are quiet because you have come to your senses. Good for you!
