I didn't know Ford was an anti-Semite.

I'm not even sure what a Semite is.

[edit] Ancient Semitic peoples
The following is a list of ancient peoples generally characterised as "Semitic" by modern authors (including some stated in Genesis to be descendents of Ham):

Akkadians — appear ca. 2500 BC and amalgamate with Mesopotamian populations into the Assyrians of the late Bronze Age
Assyrians — 20th century BC
Babylonians — 18th century BC
Chaldeans — 6th century BC
Eblaites — 23rd century BC
Aramaeans — from the 14th century BC, evolve into the Syriacs of the early centuries AD
Ugarites, 14th to 12th centuries BC
Canaanite nations of the early Iron Age:
Amorites (Amurru, Sumerian MAR.TU) — invade Sumer in the 20th century BC
Ammonites
Edomites
Eberites ( Hebrews ) — founded the kingdom of Israel and Judah, the remnants of which became the Jews of Late Antiquity.
Moabites
Phoenicians
Sabaeans of Yemen and Ethiopia, from ca. the 9th century BC, evolving into Semitic Ethiopian peoples from the 5th century BC
Arabs — appearing from the 5th century BC as Nabataeans
Nabataeans — 5th century BC
Saracens — early centuries AD

So Ford didn't like the Moabites? Big deal, nobody liked the Moabites!
