Which people? I have never considered such an off-the-wall topic. I am thinking about the war on terrorism and how we are going to find Bin Laden. You are clearly anti-Israel and here to antagonize Jews. Did your family have some problems in that area? Are you Polish-born?
As far as diamonds, nothing equals them, but you need some dough to get good ones. If you ever get a job Freep mail me if you want to buy one, I can get good prices.
Myles Kantor:
While Castro’s hatred of Israel is too flagrant to deny and too proximate to ignore, Jewish organizations in America do just the latter.Agustin Blazquez and Jaums Sutton:The Anti-Defamation League recently released a report on "Anti-Semitism in the Egyptian Media, February 2001-February 2002." Cartoons in Egypt’s state-sponsored newspapers equating Zionism with Nazism certainly warrant condemnation; but why no report or press release on similar vulgarity from the most anti-Zionist regime in the Western Hemisphere?
At least the Anti-Defamation League doesn’t glamorize the regime that exalts the Arab brownshirts. The B’nai B’rith and American ORT, on the other hand, respectively feature photographs of Castro and the murderous Ernesto "Che" Guevara, who considered Zionism "reactionary."

Jewish intellectuals and organizations in the U.S. “were in the forefront of singing the praises of Castro.”But with Castro’s background of anti-Semitism, his decimation of the Cuban Jewish community, his plotting against the state of Israel and his connections with the PLO terrorist wing, it was puzzling and insulting to the Jewish community, including the Cuban Jews in exile, when Israel’s Chief Rabbi Yisrael Lau visited Cuba in 1974. On that occasion Lau said of Castro, “He is a great friend of the Jewish people. Anti-Semitism is extremely hateful to him.” Hello?

Last I checked, Castro isn't mentioned on the ADL website. But conservative groups are:
Anti-Defamation League Labels Conservative Event 'Extremist'
The question remains, why does the ADL and Simon Wiesenthal Center ignore Castro? They like his politics? Of does Maurice Tempelsmans dealings in Angola (where Castro had troops) have something to do with it? Or maybe it is a little of both?
