Why is that piece being aired now? Is it because that people are waking up now and seeing that the US is doing Israel dirty work for them. Is it because that Bush's entourage are Jews and have Israel interest at heart? Why is it ok to hate Blacks, Muslims, Arabs and GOG forbid anyone says anything wrong about Israel is called Anti-Semite. You know what, the Jews should find a new word or term cause Anti-Semite has been over used it lost its meaning.
constantly--that Jews are responsible for all of the evils of the world.
Maybe it is true. Think about it.

There also seems to be rampant hatred of Muslims -- why do you think that is?

Actually it was pretty dull. I was going to say it was surprisingly dull for a Frontline piece but I don't think it was Frontline. At any rate, didn't see the very beginning or the very end so I don't know.

Nothing interesting or enlightening.

People are anti-semitic and have been forever, Jews are put upon, Israel was put together by the UN so it's legal, anti-semitism is 'special', etc. Nothing new here.

Prejudice and ignorance, stupidity and violence are commonplace. I'm sure the Rwandans didn't think, gee, our genocide isn't as special as the Holocaust.

People are just people and all of this is a smokescreen for bad government, greed and theft. Religion, ethnicity...who the hell cares.

All the religious nutcases, all the priests and the rabbis and the shamans and the wiccans and the monks and the whatevers can all go pound sand for all the good they do in this world.

This is what's on Frontline this week:

"Return of the Taliban - Frontline
A 25th season starts with a report from tribal areas along the Afghan-Pakistani border on how the area has fallen under the control of the resurgent Taliban, which uses it as a launching pad for attacks on U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan. Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf is interviewed."
