An 89 year old influential Israeli rabbi who is the spiritual head of the religious Shas party in Israel's government is calling on God to inflict a death plaque on Palestinians and their leader, Abu Mazen (Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas).He is reported to have said: "Abu Mazen and all these evil people should perish from this earth ...,"
He continued:"God should strike them and these Palestinians -- evil haters of Israel -- with a plague ...,"
Mmmmmm ... so I guess wisdom does not necessarily come with age and racist idiocy is a national pastime in Israel.
If this man was a Muslim Imam/cleric anywhere in the world we would have had lots of virulent condemnations from the "Muslims are terrorists" bandwagon already.
To be fair the US did say the Rabbi's comments were "inflammatory".
I guess he could use some Preparation H then?
Since this fool is really old he may just be acting up like an old cantankerous fool .... right?
Whatever.
Someone should put a cap in his decrepit ass and send him to a permanent pasture ... oops there I go again showing my militant Muslim terrorist tendencies.
I really don't need Obama to send a Drone to flatten my flat tonight ...
Onward!

Hey Rid, I read a story the other day that drunken baboons have plagued the tonier suburbs of Cape Town. How dare they call you and your friends baboons!
As for the rabbi he's right. We just saw 4 Israelis murdered by Palestinian scum today.
Just in case any of you decent folk who read here thought there was no genocidal filth like "Death To Islam" out there.
He/she is a regular here under different guises. Being schooled no doubt.
I like baboons by the way. Magnificent relatives to us and we should do more to protect their environment. It is the humane thing to do.
I know though that the reference is a backhanded racist comment about black folks.
That ship has sailed. White folks like this are irrelevant.
We focused on freeing Palestine now.
Soon Zionism will be irrelevant too.
Onward!
Being an avid fan of history and having read many books and had many discussion on the subject, I'd like to mention that the Rabbi's comments sound rather like Adolf Hitler's and his buddies talking about the Jews.
Death to Islam is obviously just a vocal instigator, psychic vampire, as it were. Like most Americans, probably unwilling to do his own killing, but willing to cheer others on to kill for them. Obviously racist, and unwilling and or incapable of taking in the whole story nor daring to do things like read books or articles from all sides. Belligerently anti-intellectual, as a friend of mine coined. His mind is made up, what mind he may have, and thus he is simply right without anything to back it up.
As far as the four Israeli's being killed, the continuation of this particular violence is abhorrent. However, the violence is by design from the Israeli government. When one oppresses folk like the Israeli's do the Palestinians, you are bound to get backlash which politicians can use for their own gain. Terrify the public, and you get their ears. The perpetual violence against the Palestinian people in all of its forms are easily ignored because they don't have what it takes to get their voices to the public, money.
One only gets one side of the story, and more than one side is seemingly too difficult for racist anti-intellectuals such as Death to Islam to grasp. Might give them a headache, or better yet, a brain tumor.
Hey there Eugene. You calling it just right brother.
I too am amazed how folks like the Rabbi, and 'Death to Islam', sound just like the fascists and Nazis who massacred Jews in Europe and elsewhere.
I'm not anti-Jewish/Judaism but decidedly anti-Zionist ... there is a difference as you know very well.
Nonetheless, you have said it all and I will leave it there.
Peace to you brother!
Ridwan
