| Slur on Palestinians at terror victimsâ memorial ignites political firestorm |
| 2004-02-24 |
| At a memorial service marking the 26th anniversary of the terror attack on a passenger bus on Israelâs coastal highway, in which 37 Israelis were killed, Deputy Minister of Defense, Zeev Boim (Likud), said, âWhatâs wrong with Islam? Whatâs wrong with the Palestinians in particular that drives them to commit such horrific crimes? Is it a genetic flaw, a lack of culture or something beyond explanation?â |

| #4 Well at least he didn't call them "descendants of pigs and monkeys". Oh, that's right. That one's already taken. I think our Arab friends have it copywrited. |

| #3 Over the top to be sure, contrasted with the slurs that Israelis endure continually from "enlightened" artiste wankers worldwide. |

| #2 Calling Zeâev Boim a "racist" for these remarks seems rather over the top. The questions he asked are legitimate and relevant. After nearly a half-century of watching Palestinians and their atrocities, I've reached a point where I have an extremely difficult time even thinking of them as human beings. Frankly, whatever Israel decides to do about them is fine by me. And I mean, WHATEVER. |

| #1 What drives Palistinians to commit such horrific crimes? It is the result of CHARLES MANSON in the form of Yassir Arafat getting control over a few million people. |
