Wouldn't that be controversial?"<br /><br />That's comparing apples to oranges, the invasion of Iraq was an extremely bad idea but it's not genocide, the soldiers and Iraqi police are not shooting civilians routinely over there and Europeans are not immigrating over there.<br /><br />"Actually, I suspect Levin's curriculum will be too "radical" for the conservative people of Wyoming and their cowboy mentality."<br /><br />Congrats of ignorantly bashing and stereotyping the people of an entire state, you must be so proud.<br /><br />"Your probably right.

The Celts practiced head hunting and druidic child sacrifice (although I don't know if Brythonic people did things like that it could have just been a Gaelic practice). Muslims have committed genocide, and we all know what the English did to Indians, if that isn't savagery then what is?Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-84686304237321894102009-04-30T14:23:00.000-07:002009-04-30T14:23:00.000-07:00Sounds like a bunch of nonsense to me; the first s...Sounds like a bunch of nonsense to me; the first step to genocide is dehumanizing the targetted people and cannibalism is the oldest trick in the book.Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-22067630421723648472009-04-29T22:24:00.000-07:002009-04-29T22:24:00.000-07:00I learned by reading "Cannibalism, Headhunting and...I learned by reading "Cannibalism, Headhunting and Human Sacrifice in North America: A History Forgotten" written by George Feldman that the Indians were pretty <A HREF="http://www.historynerds.com/" REL="nofollow"> barbaric </A> themselves.

Not to mention the fact that he was also influenced by Islam (something you obviously know nothing about since you posted revisionist and stomach churning links about it and praised it).<br /><br />http://pedestrianinfidel.blogspot.com/2007/11/adolf-hitler-on-islam.html<br /><br />http://www.palestinefacts.org/pf_mandate_grand_mufti.phpStephennoreply@blogger.com
