First of all a comparison, The population of Israel is around 6 million - 5 million of them are Jews. Saying that you can be anti-Israel and pro-Jewish is an oxymoron of the highest degree and no, it's not a stretch to state that to be anti-Israel (which is the *only* Jewish state the the world) means that you are also anti-Jew which is equivalent of saying that you are antisemitic. Your first batch of statements aren't racist depending on what it is you're saying. If you're saying Condi isn't qualified to be Secretary of State because she's black then that's a racist statement. The subject of the original thread states that based on what the major media outlet in Britian is publishing - blog or not - Brits are anti-Jewish. I'll take that a step different by stating that the opinion they are endorsing is anti-religious. And like Sam I'll skip commenting on the France thing, it's just too easy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:213266 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
