DinoDoc called him a racist when he said that he's a little touchy when people decide to say the truth to him and call him a racist.

Well, I guess you hate the french as well.....

Uh yeah... the French government anyway... not regular French people (well... that LePen guy is a ****er).

like I said, I don't have anything against regular Israelis unless they're borderline racial superiority nuts (like some people whose names I won't mention).

Surely you've heard me call them (the French) scum before... frustrating Shrub over Iraq was about the only good thing they ever did.

Engaging in terrorism against New Zealanders when we objected

Dino always does... it's his way of disguising his personal inadequacies when it comes to mounting arguments.

Agathon isn't a racist, he's just stupid.

But he's awesome anyway. Agathon

Spiffor, I don't understand your question. Actually, is there a question?

I'd like those people who think Europeans are antisemitic (I dunno if it includes you or not) to tell us why they believe that.

Why is antisemitism singled out from just plain racism?

Every group tends to focus on the specific brand of racism that affects it. And the Jews are probably the best established minority, which is why it is mainstream to single out antisemitism.

Because you hate Jews, of course.

A majority of Jews live in the US now. Very few live in Europe. I can only assume that many European countries have been relatively unwelcoming to Jews up to this point.

That would be the whole "Holocaust" thing. I am not aware of any massive flux of Jews leaving Europe for the US since.

Well, you do hear these reports from time to time of Jewish Cemeteries getting vandalized. And then you have the occasional sucsess of people like Haider.

Thanks for answering the question

I'd like to ask two questions:
1. When a Jewish cemetary is vandalized, does the outrage of the population/politicians make it to your news as significantly as the desecration itself?

2. Does your media say that antisemitism plays an important role in the high scores of the far right?

1. No. However, the antisemitic remarks of politicians make it VERY quickly. Ken Livingstone, for example.

2. What do you mean "high scores"?
