I'm sorry, but there's enough of this shit to go around already - and yes, it damned well could incite violence.

As far as "Islam's hatred of Jews" goes... seems to me that that's an opinion. Seems to me that there are all kinds of Muslims with varying opinions regarding just about everything. Not all of them hate Jews, the same way that not all Jews hate Muslims.

This lawsuit is ridiculous.
