whattheheck? sure there are bigots in any religion, and haven't they run Israel for 58 years? decampe? you view CNN as a benchmark of truth? http://www.antiwar.com/reese/?articleid=9608 August 28, 2006 Bigotry and Ignorance of Islam by Charley Reese President George Bush's ignorance of the Middle East and its people is well-known.
