Comment: there you go again, earl. farrakhan never "blasted judaism", rather he blasted so-called jews who kill, humiliate, torture, displace and terrorize palestinians who have lived in the territory now re-named israel for centuries.

Comment: oshun well said. going a step further let's put what farrakhan said to rest once and for all.
June 24, 1984
"...America and England and the nations backed Israel's existence. Therefore when you aid and abet someone in a criminal conspiracy, you are a part of that criminal conspiracy. So America and England and the nations are criminals in the sight of almighty God. Now that nation called Israel, never has had any peace in forty years and she will never have any peace because there can never be any peace structured on injustice, thievery, lying and deceit and using the name of God to shield your dirty religion under His holy and righteous name.
"America and England and the nations, because of their backing of Israel, are being drawn into the heat of the third world war, which is called Armageddon. Oh America, you have blundered so. And instead of recognizing the mistake you have made and make a turn for the better, you persist in your evil. And so the consequences of evil must come. You hate us because we dare to say that we are the chosen people of God and can back it up..."
Minister Farrakhan used the term "dirty religion" to describe the practices of some Jews in the State of Israel. Reasonable people may argue that Moses would not condone Israelis who,
· develop nuclear weapons for apartheid South Africa
· put the Palestinians in, what Archbishop Desmond Tutu called, a state of apartheid
· train the Medelin drug cartel security forces
· train apartheid South Africa's military and police
· sell weapons to "terrorist states"
· torture those Palestinians they have illegally detained
· have implemented outwardly racist policies against dark-skinned Jews
Should these Israelis refer to themselves as Jews, one might say that they have "dirtied the religion" of Judaism. Minister Farrakhan regularly teaches that Muslim "big bellied sheiks who live in opulence when their people live in squalor are practicing a dirty religion." Christians that give the poor a Bible and then exploit their faith and take their natural resources, in the name of God, have dirtied the religion. TV evangelists who thrive off the faith of the gullible and the ignorant, have dirtied the religion. This concept is universal.

Comment: hhhhmmmmm...didn't will smith just break the box office record for the take on an opening weekend. they always have to feel they are the best. thanx to all for the great comments!! i have to agree that any religion that is in the business of oppressing rather than uplifting has sullied the tenets on which that religion was built. you left out a couple though, like george bush walking around here calling himself a christian, then goes and kills hundreds of thousands in the name of christianity and natural resources; also the prime minister of australia who basically said he will use all the resources at his country's disposal to surveil and otherwise spy on muslims down under, because they are a nation of christians...but what about the aboriginies? naturalsista where did you get all the info on the practices going on in israel?

Comment: The Press are known for twisting peoples words and some bloggers like TMZ are quick to run with it by putting a controversial headline to get people to read. Its a shame he's been misquoted. Personally I don't think Will should apologise cos he did nothing wrong, he's clarified his words and that should be the end of it. This too shall pass, the press will revisit the Britney Spears clan and this I guarantee in a couple of weeks will be yesterday's news...................

Comment: what was really strange to me was the fact that the JDL called on Obama to denounce Will Smilth. WTF!!! Is it that Obama is the new HNIC and he is to keep the rest of us in line? telthepe: An excellent book to read is The Zionist Connection if you want to understand more about Isreal and it's policies. Isreal long ago was co-opted by their version of the religious right. They very nearly started WWW3 but working with South Africa to detonate a nuclear bomb in the Indian Ocean in the 70's.
The real threat is not groups such as the JDL but the American Isreali Political Action Committee. (just ask Cynthia McKinney (D Georgia) about that shyt. AIPAC has major major political clout.

Comment: Kofi. They called Obama BEFORE Will clarified or retracted or begged for mercy or stood by it and told everybody to go to hell? They didn't wait?

Comment: AND, isn't it also strange, Kofi, that the U.S. christian right also unconditionally supports israel?

Comment: thanx for that kofi...it's really difficult that more people don't see what's really going on in this world. it astounds me how many people believe everything they read on the net and in the newspaper, and see on tv, yet they won't believe what they really see, or don't really want to see right in front of their own two.
