    You may want to discuss your bigotry problems with a therapist.

      Thank you doctor.

      If you want to see some bigotry, read the koran sometimes. Or go visit Holland or Britain, where good tolerant Christians and Jews are being reduced to second-class citizenship by a bunch of primitive saracens bent the destruction of their modern, liberal society. Just look down 7th Ave sometime, see if there's anything missing. Muslims will be welcome here as soon as we can build a synagogue in Damascus.

        Psycho's comment about you is exactly right. I just read an interview with the Dutch, conservative Prime Minister (Balkenende). He pointed out that the number of moslem fanatics in Holland was no greater than the number of christian or jewish fanatics and that the attempts by christian and jewish fanatics to vilify moslems were actually causing more problems in Holland than the moslems.

        As for your comments about synagogues, you do know that mideastern jews hate racist zionists from eastern europe?

        Israel's Jewish Problem in Tehran

        So why hasn't Iran started by wiping its own Jews off the map?

        ... There is an interesting problem with selling the "Iran as Nazi Germany" line. If Ahmadinejad really is Hitler, ready to commit genocide against Israel's Jews as soon as he can get his hands on a nuclear weapon, why are some 25,000 Jews living peacefully in Iran and more than reluctant to leave despite repeated enticements from Israel and American Jews?

          In the meantime, the Iranian Jewish community is the largest in the Middle East outside Israel and traces its roots back 3,000 years. As one of several non-Muslim minorities in Iran, Jews there suffer discrimination, but they are certainly no worse off than the one million Palestinian citizens of Israel â;; and far better off than Palestinians under Israeli occupation in the West Bank and Gaza.

          .... Iranian Jews have little influence on decision-making and are not allowed to hold senior posts in the army or bureaucracy. But they enjoy many freedoms. They have an elected representative in parliament, they practice their religion openly in synagogues, their charities are funded by the Jewish diaspora, and they can travel freely, including to Israel. In Tehran there are six kosher butchers and about 30 synagogues. Ahmadinejad's office recently made a donation to a Jewish hospital in Tehran.

            As Ciamak Moresadegh, an Iranian Jewish leader, observed: "If you think Judaism and Zionism are one, it is like thinking Islam and the Taliban are the same, and they are not."

            ... Despite the absence of any threat to Iran's Jews, the Israeli media recently reported that the Israeli government has been trying to find new ways to entice Iranian Jews to Israel...

            ...The announcement was met with scorn by the Society of Iranian Jews, which issued a statement that their national identity was not for sale. "The identity of Iranian Jews is not tradeable for any amount of money. Iranian Jews are among the most ancient Iranians. Iran's Jews love their Iranian identity and their culture, so threats and this immature political enticement will not achieve their aim of wiping out the identity of Iranian Jews."...

  Makes sense to me, I sure haven't heard of any Amish terrorists.

  All Muslims are not terrorists but the majority of terrorist of late have been Muslims.

    Actually, apart from the freedom fighters resisting our occupation of their countries, moslems are not even responsible for the majority of suicide bombings.

    You did note the report in the article that one of the major American members of Al Qaeda was of christian/jewish heritage?
