About the rednecks' blind hate towards Islam or about the Jewish people's demonizing of Islam through public media in order to keep the American people's support for Israel?
Because both of these things are prevalent.

the later. Frankly I think it has little to do with the general Jewish populace or the media itself. Its both the Israeli and American government that are behind the continual blind support. A long history of blind foreign support and lack of true foreign political criticism has created the situation.

Most people are sheep, plain and simple. They listen to/read everything the media says and believes it because, well, they are the media so they must be reporting the facts.
All "facts' are presented in a biased way by the presenter/writer/author/editor/news media outlet ownership, etc., etc. People are too dumb to think for themselves and it's much easier to just listen to and take for "fact" what the liberal media says.
I'm not saying that Fox News is any better, they are far right wing and therefore just as bad. There is no such thing as unbiased reporting of the news, especially when it comes to politics and until the average intelligence of a human goes up we are stuck with what we have. Morons running a bunch of morons.

ibby Wrote:Something I remember from Ann Coulters speech here in Toronto, taken from a news article:
CBC Wrote:"But the regular Fox News commentator drew outrage from some, including a 17-year-old Muslim student who asked her a question about her views on Muslims.
Coulter has said all terrorists are Muslims and has suggested all Muslims be barred from airlines and use flying carpets.
When the student said she didn't have a flying carpet, Coulter told her to "take a camel"
Thats just something that I think caused a bit of controversy over here, I myself though that that was distasteful and could even be considered as hate speech.
An interesting blurb from an Ontario Court of Appeals judge suggested(outside court which is a bit unusual it and of itself) that Coulter's comment, while distasteful, didn't constitute anything which amounted to hate speech(criminal) or libel/slander(civil). The students at Ottawa however, were certainly shown to be violent in both speech and actions in their actions at the University of Ottawa.
Then again, the current president of the U of O is that Liberal hack Allan Rock....
