#1 Fred, most of the people at the DC Darfur protest last week were associated with synagogues and other Jewish organizations. Hey—that's what we do.

Those willing to slaughter one group of people for racial or religious reasons will always end up trying to slaughter the Jews.

#2 Eric Jablow: Those willing to slaughter one group of people for racial or religious reasons will always end up trying to slaughter the Jews.

It's called the Muslim reboot.

#3 We have racism in this country, of course, though by now it usually takes a trained observer like Al Sharpton to recognize it

Dang! Better than Noonan. Have you considered speech-writing for fun and profit Fred?

#4 "Had they been Bosnian, Kosovar, Arab, Pakistani or Iranian, I can bet you, these grounds would have been full of slogan-chanting Muslims demanding justice.

Really?

The Pakistani army killed 3 million Bengalis in East Pakistan, most of them muslims, citizen of their own country.

No crowd of muslims has called for justice.
The criminals of the 71 genocide live in palatial surroundings, enjoyig their retirement.

How many muslims did Saddam kill? 500,000 ?
Any protestors?

How many Kurds have been killed by Turkey? How many thousands of villages razed to the ground?

Muslims protest when they percieve a non-muslim country acting against muslims. It is perfectly all right to kill muslims if one is muslim. The problem arises when it is the kaffir.

To have the kaffir do it is to accept that islam will not conquer all, to accept that Islam is not triumphant.

#5 I'd just like to give the producers of ER a little credit here for tackling Sudan in their May sweeps and not explicitly blaming Dubya or the Jooos. Of course the little episode summary on the cable guide said "Pratt angers gun-toting militants with his arrogance", so they got that wrong, but overall it's a scary look at refugee life in Darfur.

#6 Speaking of "trained observers"....I am not a trained observer so I may be wrong, but, did I just see a glimpse of the Mythical Moderate Muslim?

I'll of course defer to the greater skill of the 'burgian elite. ;^)

#7 The myth isn't the matter of their existence -- that's not in doubt -- it's their prevalence. The myth claims that the moderates are the predominant -- but silent -- population inside Islam.

Right. it's like in Animal House: "He can't do that to our pledges. Only we can do that to our pledges."

#9 This story is not important enough to report. Better that Greta spend a couple years doing remotes from Aruba about a pretty girl getting raped and killed

#10 also not reported is that during the Darfur conflict hundreds of Darfurian mosques (and some on the other side) have been burned or destroyed by explosives.

This implies tens of thousands of Korans also destroyed.

Moslems are silent about this also.

#11 "decries the position that Jews have stolen the issue of Darfur"

as IF it's a political issue, or a public relations issue. HELLO, it's a humanitarian issue. Which is why the muslim world is deafeningly silent.
