AddReply(217327,"Political Incorrectness.","Andy","Mechanicsburg, PA","07/14/07","This article may be a satire but the truth of the matter is that it already happens around the world. In the US CAIR raises it\'s ugly head whenever they \"sense\" discrimination because of race. Regardless of the facts behind it. Australia makes Islamophobia a hate crime. And the list goes on and on. On the other hand if you speak out for Israel at any of the universities you either get boycottet or they have Muslim protestors with placards that carry hatefull speech against Israel and America (and the West in general).");

AddReply(214090,"You got me!","Watcher58","Columbia","06/29/07","I did\'t even look at the date! Why this crazy joke, especially at a point in time when Israel is under attack from all the nations in their every action, and in light of the insanity that we have come to expect from the present Olmert regime that attacked their own people in Amona? Doesn\'t  this just make Israeli supporters look and feel stupid? I apologise for my stupid comment, but we deserve an apology for this badly presented joke from the author of the article and you should be more careful presenting such sensitive material in the future as I certainly will be in believing it.");

It\'s an indictment against Israel and fodder for the country\'s enemies instigated by an Israeli citizen. The enemy within is more destructive than all the missiles aimed at the country. This so called \'cleverness\'  indicates that the hubris of an individual is more important than the  unity and cohesion required in the current negative international atmosphere. Not only should this fool be silenced; this newspaper should be condemned for its contribution to the anti-Israeli foment now circulating in the world.  ");

AddReply(212501,"Send Him Back","rita","La Quinta, Ca.","06/23/07","I think it a little extreme for wanting to kill Rusdie for expressing himself even if his expressions are inflamatory.

They may even get a Nobel Prize for Literature to boot this time.");
