Posted at 2005-05-06 16:08:05 [PermaLink]Does this mean that the radical islamists are a bigger threat than the white supremacists?

Hollywood still won't make a movie with Moslems as heavies despite . . . well, you know why. Instead they fall back for villains on neo-Nazis, that eensy-weensy threat only the media finds worth worrying about. So the answer to the question is white supremicsts are the biggest threat to the world today. Let's just hope one of the countries they control don't get hold of a nuclear weapon and a missle to deliver it with.

It seems that Labour, in an effort to counter Respect, chose to run a candidate who, if her past statements are any indication, wasn't all that much better.
Melanie has by far the best analysis.
