Yamaka. Man you are a goy.(g) Yamulka. I dont think ruff has crossed that line that guys like gaviero crossed along time ago. Some guys get very close to that line when the insulting contest begins. Last week sarman started it with blaming mossad for 9/11. Then the burkas started flying.

You speak of disparaging various cultures as if all disparagement is equivalent, whether speaking of Jews or Arabs. It is fair however, to notice what behavior is being disparaged, and whether the thing being disparaged a) actually exists as described b) exists as described, but is being exaggerated c) doesn't exist but is being spun into some wild fantasy. For example if I disparage the Amish on the grounds that they are running a vast conspiracy to take over the world, that is clearly a crazy fantasy. If I disparage Osama bin Laden on the same grounds, that is not a fantasy at all.
