10 Florida tudents suspended for taking part in “kick a Jew day”

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

it's really gross the way you're shamelessly using these middle school kids, who were victimized by bullies, as fodder for your bigoted axe grinding.

Just a bit..

[scandal 951]

There's nothing wrong with being racist/bigoted.

And there you have it.

[scandal 951]

in threads that are actually about rioters, i criticize rioters. i don't drag them in irrelevantly to threads about jewish kids being victimized by bullies in a florida middle school.

it's as retarded as if i were to bring up the fact that israeli settlers torched yet another mosque this week, and vandalized it with anti-muslim graffiti in beit fajjar. it has nothing to do with florida middle schoolers. just like pakistani and lebanese rioters have nothing to do with these same florida middle schoolers. get it?

I agree.

And, regarding the reprehensible violence that has occurred in West Bank mosques, had you seen this?

There is room for coexistence between those who want to coexist. The trouble, as always, are those on both sides who are not interested in that approach. There will never be peace until the extremists of both sides are brought to heel.

Chief rabbi: Palestinian mosque burning harkens to Kristallnacht

Metzger visits Yasuf to express his 'revulsion' over attack, pelted by rocks on way out of village.

Chief Ashkenazi Rabbi Yona Metzger on Monday visited the West Bank village of Yasuf, where days earlier a mosque was torched allegedly at the hand of settlers angry over the 10-month construction freeze.

"I came here to expression my revulsion at this wretched act of burning a place holy to the Muslim people," Metzger told the residents after he was escorted into the village under the protection of the Israel Defense Forces and Palestinian police. "This is how the Holocaust began, the tragedy of the Jewish people of Europe."

On their way out of the village, the rabbi and his escorts were pelted by rocks from protesters. The troops fired two shots in the air and a tear gas grenade.

On Sunday, a delegation of Israelis from the West Bank settlement bloc of Gush Etzion brought copies of the Koran to villagers to replace those destroyed in the attack.

The group, led by peace activist Rabbi Menachem Froman, met the village elders at a nearby checkpoint after being held up for several hours by the IDF.

"Our going to the village can bring about a resolution of the conflict," said Froman, of the southern West Bank settlement of Tekoa.

"The people who spread hate in the region are those who invented the method of 'price tag.' They should be cast out of here," Froman said, refering to the term used by right-wing activists for actions opposing anti-settlement moves by the government.

"We want to create new conditions between Jews and Arabs. Arson in a mosque is an attempt to sow hatred between Jews and Arabs. Jewish law also prohibits damaging a holy place." Froman said.

At the end of the meeting, Froman presented a Koran to the village leader, Munir, who thanked the delegation for "coming here to identify with us against violence."

Security officials, meanwhile, say they fear that the torching of the mosque near Nablus on Friday could lead to reprisal attacks by Palestinians on Jews.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered Israel's security services to find the people behind the arson, which Jewish extremists are suspected of perpetrating.

i did, and i'm glad you posted it here too, so more people will see it. rabbi metzger and rabbi froman sound like great men, and i'm thankful for all the people who showed up there with them too. the story i read said that there were hundreds of palestinians who cheered when they showed up too.

I wish you would be as critical of the rioters as you are to people who criticize said rioters.

Or is this part of the whole OUTRAGE thing?

I kind of wish you would stop poisoning every topic with your cynical disparagement and hatred of muslims. It's despicable, even more despicable that your brand of garbage is tolerated in a supposedly multicultural web forum.

What's a tudent?

you can like it or not like it, but it is what it is.

There's nothing wrong with being racist/bigoted.

Wrong is a relative term. How is it you dont find it wrong when somebody discriminates against someone based solely on there skin color? I find it wrong.

It's the actions taken because of that, that are wrong.

Actions make it illegal and possible wrong but again wrong is a relative term.
