Pete,
That statement reflect how little you understand of the human legacy of armed conflict.
Humans INHERENTLY group into warring factions. And until the violence is concluded unamimously, it will be the most visceral way to achieve factional objectives. The trick then becomes to find ways to INCLUDE such diversity in your factions that the common tie is the faction itself.
His racism is as unappealing to me as the racism of any other. His misuse of facts (hopefully just for rhyme and flow) creates a picture of a great white conspiracy that somehow forgot to include the majority of whites as well. What he says is biased, poorly researched, dated (and in some cases disproven), ignorant of the major tenets of economics, understanding of executive authority, and religious history.
Like when he says "Jesus is the most quoted prophet in the Quran." That is not true. The Quran is *supposed to be* the direct transmssion of Allah, through Gabriel,.. not the words of ANY PROPHET! Thus, it is not the word Muhammed spoke, but it is the word of Muhammed.
And to be honest, he is as racist and opportunistic as the men he criticizes.
His agenda is one of creating a greater rift in American mentality thorugh misinformation, especially along a racial divide:
Like his comment that 4 non-Arabs were arrested at GWB for Terrorist attacks. That is a complete mistruth.

Lynne Stewart, 62; was a lawyer and an Arabic translator. She is under indictment for allowing the dissemination of a false claim that the Bureau of Prisons denied Rahman medical treatment, when she knew that Rahman himself had refused insulin. This claim was a major element of her appeal to his imprisonment, where she claimed he was denied vital medical treatment. The indictment further says she assited her client in relaying orders to Mohammed Yousry, 44, from Queens; an alleged Islamic Group operative who lives in Staten Island, Ahmed Abdel Sattar, 42; and a man who allegedly provided funds and communications support for the Islamic Group, Yassir Al-Sirri, who is currently incarcerated in England.
They were not arrested at the bridge, or together, and one of them is in prison in England!
The indictment alleges the New York-based Sattar has relayed messages from abroad to Rahman, while Yousry, who acts as an interpreter during prison visits and phone calls between Rahman and his attorneys, "is one of the very limited number of people who has any means of communicating directly" with the sheik.
In addition, the indictment alleges that Sattar wired money to one of Rahman's sons, Mohammed Abdel Rahman, who was killed in Afghanistan after years of fighting as a member of the Al Qaeda. He has another son in the Al Qaeda who is in US custody.

First, in northern New Jersey, Sami Ibrahim Isa Ardel Hadi, who worked for L&L Painting was arrested after a traffic stop when his name came up on a Terror Watchlist. He had a valid ID as a painter on the George Washington Bridge, which is where he was likely headed either to or from when stopped on Route 46, a local GWB approach. The PBA union for Port Authority Police confirmed that a painter on the GWB had been arrested and was on the terror watch list.
----
and there was also two men with Pakistani passports who were arrested in 2003 carrying a white powder, and the makings of a bomb, to the NYC Brooklyn bridge.

this dude is probably smoking his own product before he checks out the news, can't get half the shit he read straight, and when he sobers up he goes looking for them same articles, and *poof* they are nowhere to be found. damn, must be that Great White conspiracy.
No offense,.. but do you really think most people are coordinated enough to do that kind of shit on PURPOSE?
If he were on the radio, I'd listen to the classical station. I'd rather hear no words than a half-baked truth.
