    Don't you hate Jews? And didn't you called Yuri Foreman a dirty Jew that deserved to die? And now you're lecturing on racism and bigotry?

    God, it's like dealing with the media. They dig up one line that was taken back and anytime you try to show your real self they fall back on that same line.

    a) No, I don't hate Jews. Yes, I despise the Israeli government which routinely violates international law and war mongers in the Middle East.

    b) My positions on race and bigotry are known over hundreds of posts, so it is inaccurate to say that my view is any less than that of anyone else.

    My point is clear and simple. There are degrees of racism. I happen to think one is dangerous and the other relatively trivial.

    All rather elementary.

    So what level is your bigotry? Is it severe, moderate, or light? I think advocating the death of someone based on the group they belong to is pretty severe, no?

    And let's be honest now, you typed what you did on Yuri Foreman because that's how you felt on certain groups, let's not blame it on the booze now shall we?

    Look I like reading your posts and think you are somewhat funny, but let's not lecture people on racism/bigotry when your views on certain groups is blatantly clear. Actually, never mind just continue what you are doing, I find it quite funny.

    I am a light racist as I make allusions to race, but that largely comes from living in a country where I am the only white man and it is usually said just for effect.

    Yuri Foreman was a ONE off. Never seen before and certainly not seen after. That instance was extreme and I have admitted as much. It was also taken back with an apology.

    In a lifetime one says many things and evolves many trains of thought, but you don't condemn a man for a single thing said once in 1867. That in itself is narrow minded and lacking in fairness. And more so if one knows it was wrong and says as much.

    Anyway, it seems this extreme racist has gone to a mental hospital and has schizophrenia. I think that is probably untrue, she went off the deep end and should just admit it and say sorry.

    As I have said before some of my favourite people are Jews. Finkelstein and Chomsky are prime examples. They are wonderful people and I have nothing but respect. But if you are Netanyahu then I will despise you. It is human traits that I distinguish, not ethnicity.

    I have to add 1 last thing, the Jenny girl while saying such awful remarks is also morally superior to you. She conveyed her racist thoughts but at least she did not wish death on a group or a person from the group whom she clearly disliked. You on the other hand wished death on Yuri Foreman for being a Jew from Israel without knowing anything about what his political ideologies are, not that it makes it alright to wish death upon someone for their political beliefs. All you needed to know was that Foreman was Jewish and from Israel, therefore he disgusts you and that you wanted him to die. She is not the extreme bigot, it's you.

    But hey Miles, you can blame it on the booze.

    Miles has a remarkable ability to excuse his own behaviour here.

    "Ok so one time I got a bit mental and said I wanted a Jew to die becuase he's a Jew but that was an entirely different thing. I was drunk you see, and angry. But I said repeatedly afterwards that I am not an anti semite and that surely cancels out one minor act of wishing death upon Jews"
