I won't post to him but this sentence in his post needs to be corrected:

Can we criticize the Islam of Iran without being anti-Arabic?

Iranians are not Arabs - they're Persians. They do not consider themselves to be Arabs and Arabs don't consider them to be Arabs.

I noticed this back in the year 2000 and later on. Every time the public mood sours (forgive the Elliottism) and markets decline or are about to do so, the anti-Semites crawl out and become more active. Sorry to say, but this is a... decent... sell signal.
