Just trying to keep up with the constant barrage of propaganda, horsefly. See Lumberjack, veronica's checking her label-list.

Apparently saying that a group of 19th century racists who incorrectly used a reference to Semites are wrong is offensive. Evidently this places me in the "brownshirt" category, according to these posts. I meant the original post as a small barb to the media, in passing as it were. I'm completely in agreement that many Arabs are anti-Jewish and that this is a bad thing.

Some people seemed to take that remark personally, as if noting the fact that both Arabs and Jews are Semites is wrong, somehow.

Not at all. It is merely irrelevant, like Arafat.
