Apocalypse soon
As Israel batters Lebanon, some prophetic souls hear the trumpets sounding -- but why? Is it the end of the world as we know it? And do evangelicals feel fine?
By Jason Boyett [2006-08-07]

  • Jews? What? Huh?

    "And I got some. I suggest Salon start a cooking column where they can cover new culinary arts, and of course those fucking Jews.

    You folks here need not even pretend to pretend anymore. We got it. We really really understand where the Salon readership is coming from. Say it PROUD!!!!"

    Are you very stoned? Where in the article or these letters have you found anti-Semitism? If I missed some I'm very sorry, but it seems to me the vast majority of the posters here are railing against wacko fundy Xtians, not Jew-bashing. The two are not the same. Personally, I did my Jewish friends and have a hell of a lot of respect for Israel, which puts up with a lot of shit and handles it better than, say, the U.S.

    Then again, if you go looking for hatred, you'll probably find it if that's the way your mind is wired. Sad.

    But since we're on the subject, how about a little Karnak the Magnificent:

    Answer: "Judo."

    Question: "What are bagels made out of?"

    Oh, I kill me. Try the veal. Thank you, good night.
