Soon the Saudis will appologize

From the Saudi Gazette, March 23, 2006 via The Religious Policeman:

Yikes…I’m offended and I am not even Jewish or American.

Of course, actually believing in freedom of speech – even in nations where there is none – I have no problem at all with the publication of this vile bit of anti-semitism. It simply underscores how pervasive anti-semitic imagry is in Saudi and the rest of the Arab world. And that is an important thing to know.

(And, hey, Antonia, should I have published this or should I show a modicum of good taste and discretion and merely described the cartoon and maybe include a link? Just asking.

    Well, that’s it. I’m going to start rioting right now.

    I’m not sure how I can riot when I’m living out on an acreage, but I’m sure I’ll think of something. Maybe I can moon vehicles passing by on the highway.

    Maybe you could chase some chickens around or something, or, you know, startle some cows.

    How is it anti – semitic? I construe it an indictment of Israel’s policies at worst. If this is the attitude, namely that any criticism of Israel is anti semitism, then people like you are going to lose the little credibility you still have left.

    Um, because it evokes conspiracy theories about Zionist plots to rule the world? Maybe that’s why it’s viewed as anti-Semitic?

    “How is it anti – semitic?”

    You don’t happen to have the number 88 tattooed on your body anywhere, do you?

    Just curious.
