Yesterday, I watched the movie Obsession with my students. Are you kidding me? This was supposed to be effective propaganda? We laughed at several points of that lousy piece. My favorite part was when Pipes or other "guests" in the film reiterate that "Not all Muslims are bad: only 15 percent." And they all referred to that 15%. So I translated this to my students. They mean to say that only 200 to 250 million Muslims are bad. The rest are really good people. The amazing things about the Zionist establishment in its advocacy after Sep. 11 is the extent to which it is mimicking classical anti-Semitic trash in its campaigns against Muslims/Arabs.
