(WASHINGTON, D.C., CAIR) – CAIR today called on American Muslims and other people of conscience to contact the MSNBC cable television network to demand an apology for comments made on its “Imus in the Morning” program that referred to Palestinians as “filthy animals” and suggested that they all be killed.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations also asked that the program’s host, Don Imus, be reprimanded for failing to challenge his colleagues’ inflammatory remarks. CAIR, which says it received numerous complaints about the comments, quoted a transcript of Imus’ November 12th program in which he and his on-air colleagues engaged in the following discussion about live coverage of Palestinian President Yasser Arafat’s funeral:
DON IMUS: They’re (the Palestinians) eating dirt and that fat pig wife of his is living in Paris.

I whole heartedly agree. They are all animals, however I am going to one up him, they should not only die, they should die horrible and painful deaths.
Big Ole BTTT, for remembering and using the ORIGINAL title.....INFINITE JUSTICE!
So is PETA upset? They are the only party potentially offended here as far as I can tell.
Harsh. But true.
Who cares about CAIR?
Did you actually post this in "breaking news?"
They (CAIR) didn't make a lot of noise on 12 September 2001 that I recall.
I alwasy felt that the isloated Islamic terrorist cell in the US would get the maximum publicity by taking out a public entertainment figure..like what happened in Holland ...the fact that it hasn't happened leads me to hope/believe that we aren't that penetrated..
Hmmm, never saw "Ban Islam" and "dirty filthy animals" in the same post. Be careful, or they will flock here from DU thinking there is an orgy to be had with goats, camels and what not. I know they don't eat pork, so I am afraid to ask why.
Welcome to the Imus party Islam. LOL!!
S.O.B.

Could have been Sid Rosenberg or Bernard. They are both rather outspoken. Charles is the moderating influence. Imus might say anything but I don't believe he himself said this. I listen to his program every day.
Everybody watch Hannity tonight, he's showing some video of beheadings (what he can) to counter the video of the young marine finishing off the stinking rotten terrorist. People need to see this stuff for what it is! Murdering slimballs...
Was the Japanese subway gassing the work of the muzzies? I don't remember.

Palestinians are not filthy animals.
Animals don't behave as despicably.
Palestinians are human beings. We ought not to demonize them. They are not animans, they are not devils, they are not demons. To do so, to say otherwise, is to lessen their moral guilt.
Palestinians are human beings with the capacity for moral choice. Unfortunately, Palestinians, through their accumulated moral choices, have created a barbarian society of brutal, nihilistic savagery.
Palestinians are humans, but they are also barbarians, savages. They are an uncivilized people. Although they have a culture (degraded as it is), they have no civilization. That is, they have no knowledge, no experience, no skill, and worst of all, no desire, at being civil, at dealing with the "other" with civility.
Being savages, they do not acknowledge the humanity of those who are not part of their primitive tribe. Being uncivilized, they hate the "other," unable to accept the "other" for any reason. Being barbarians, their response to the "other" is to seek the destruction of the "other."
Palestinian society, savage, brutal, uncivilized, is devoted to the demon, to the father of lies, to death. Thus, they worship death, they worship murder, they worship destruction.
But these are the evil deeds of evil humans, not of filthy animals. These are human beings who have made evil human choices, and who will be held accountable on the Last Day for their choices. No animal has ever done such wicked things as Palestinians have done.
Imus is usually and idiot, but he's right about the Palestinians.
"Everything I ever needed to know about Islam, I learned on 9/11" - that picture - really powerful. Wow. It's my wallpaper now. Thanks.
Say you are sorry and maybe I'll CARE!
They're protesting? Must be Rage Against Intolerance Week.
My opinion of Imus just went up 10,000%.
