Not to belabor the obvious, but people make GROSSLY RACIST slurs here all the time, and typically get all self righteous when called on it too. But I guess it's all different when the slurs are part of the war propaganda effort of the moment.

And that only supports my contention that Harry is a racist himself...

Good heavens, you have now debased the term "racism" to such a degree that you not only call the comment racist but Harry Belafonte a racist.

Any chance we could all take a deep breath. And move to another topic. I don't think anything at all is at stake in this conversation. None of us has been deputized to decide what is racist or not. So we're all just tooting our horns in empty ether(net).
