Folks, first let me start off by saying that when reading David Duke's article, I thought it presented a differe point of view and reasoning to whats going on, and that is it. Now that I know his background and relationship to an organization like the KKK, I view him in a completely different way. I hate racism in all its forms and all those that promote it in any way, shape or form. Yet I thought that few of Duke's statements and I say few, appeared to be reasonably substanciated when examined against history books and data published by various countries world wide. This comes from the simple fact when someone is trying to send a message through some piece of writing, he/she will have to resort to some sort reason to establish a base, this way everything else he/she writes will seem to be true as well. Just like 2x6spds mentions in another thread a non-exhaustive list of terrible deeds committed by Islamic extremists, not all of which is true, to proof that Islam and Muslims are the problem, his problem at least .

The article from USA Today presents the side of the events that took place in Palestine which used to be well "trimmed" by other media sources here in the US. Given that I read it from American media and heard such stories before from Arabic media, it is only logical to accept it as true. I do not resort to a single source for my news; when a side tells a story and other tells another one, I use common sense and logic, I also try asking and researching as I do believe that some media sources does paint certain pictures in grey to present a biased or "inaccurate" views to serve some of their commercial reasons rather then the facts.

For example, and to your surprise Philip (2x6spds), I didn't simply believe that a large number of Jews didn't show up to work on Sept. 11th simply because it was annouced from an Arabic media source (I actually didn't get to hear it, but was told by my folks at home), even then I still questioned how true that was. I know that I argued that point with you and made it seem like I believe it, only because you would respond to everything I say with hate prompting and aggrivating responses. I still have all of the long PMs which we exchanged and am more than happy to post them here, only to proof what you just did in this thread and others where you responded to me and other members; YOU ARE AN EXTREMIST YOURSELF PHILIP , just like those who did the horrible deeds of Sept 11th, and no, I am not saying that to imply that it is the Jews who did it (since you are Jewish). Those who did those horrible deeds are SICK poeple, you are SICK, and all extremists make me sick.

In all your posts and responds you fail to address any of the facts I state, or those that anyone else states for the matter, you just don't want to hear it, instead, you go back to repeat your blind hatered prompting crap. I should have saw right through you right from the beginning, instead I sat there with an open mind and wrote you long PMs explaining that evil deeds are and should never be associated with any race or religion. But then what do I get? you repeating the same crap, Mulisms did this and Mislims did that, do you see me going around saying Jews or Christians did this or that?? You are loving the fact that Islam and Muslims are made to appear the cause of the tragedy of Sept 11., your extremism and hatered are so obvious in every post you make, you took it upon yourself to respond to people's questions in other threads in order to clarify how horrible Islam is, you are taking full advantage of the tragedy to promote your theories and create as much anti-arab/muslim hatered as possible. You are taking direct advantage of that fact that all us are in rage because of the tragedy, and want justice served, but the justice you want is one I dare not to state, as I can never assume things on your behalf.

I don't know if it is clear enough already, but while I am trying to get along (hint, I want peace) with everyone, your mission on the other hand seems to keep promoting hatered all over. You'll NEVER find me stating anything that indicates or implies that all Jews are bad, as it is contrary to my believes. Yes you heard me right, I do not think they all are, even though you sure as hell give all Jews a terrible rep. I personally met nice religious Jews who are against the violence and blind hatered you promote, I also have freinds, yes freinds that are non religious Jews, who make fine friends and good people, I therefore found myself having to classify you and all Jews like you as Jewsih extremists.

What proof do you have that the Syrian Prime Minister said what you claim he said?? I can easily argue that you made that up or related to "biased" sources. Just like you argue that everything that all Arab media sources say is made up.

Folks, we are all human, we are all very similar and not that different; most of us (Christians, Muslims, Jews) worship the same God, we may have different names for him in our own languages, but He is one and I'm sure that in all these religions He promotes peace and harmoney. I do not think the fact we pray to him differently should make us hate each other, do you? it just doesn't make any sense to me.

Aus, I have the utmost respect for you as well, you are a good man with a good heart and mind, God bless you and all those like you.
