When it comes to individuals, leaders, governments....you have one standard for westerners and another for non-westerners (except for Israel).

I'm assuming you're just as against Obama for Jeremiah Wright as you are Nutty for Dov Lior. Although Obama has distanced himself from Wright, I don't believe Nutty has. But both cases were as bad as the other.

I have no problem going after that idiot rapper for his facebook racism, but why aren't you and other pro-Pals here condemning Sari Nusseibeh, al-Quds, and the Palestinian government for nazi-style fascism?
