Default Louis Theroux - Ultra Zionists

Strange there wasn't a thread on this already?

Although it only proved to me that the world will never be at peace.

Dave, I watched it with a kind of morbid fascination. I put all the aggro down to too much sun on the head.

Louis was his usual funny deadpan though

That Australian bloke was nuts.

And when I mean nuts, I'm talking Mel Gibson nuts (apart from he's pro Jewish...in a BIG way )

I'll respect Louis Theroux if he had the ***** to mock Islamic extremists.

Good Lord, the world wakes up to the fact that there are actually extremists in religions other than that of Islam.

I missed the program, but I read the article he wrote on the BBC web site about his experiences filming it. Scary how these guys think their god has given them the right to dispossess the Palestinians, and the Israeli state won't enforce their own laws against settlements.

I don't think he will lose any sleep over your lack of respect. After mocking the KKK, black nationalists and Afrikaaner separatists (not to mention the Hamilton's and Orvil the duck) Islamic extremists can't be far behind.

I was going to post a thread about it but i thought not worth it as a certain individual will just twist it to another Muslim thread.


I love the bit in the end of the programe where the Jewish fella says "you can't do nothing about it and no can do anything about so cocky and confident" tossar

F1 fan is quite right of course and often non more fundamental than those found among the atheists.

Is it me, or is this thread a lot shorter (and less acrimonious) than it was last night. Any mods care to comment?

Yep it's been culled. Why? it was nowhere near as bad as the anti Muslim threads seen in here in the last six months!!!

Mods, care to explain?

I wish religion would cease today. It's an outdated way of controlling people and keeping them in their place, i.e. fearful. Like my better half says, the world will never be at peace....

Not in our lifetime but it will happen eventually. IMO it needs a severe natural cull of the human race and another 2000 years of advancement post cull.

I'm really annoyed they removed the bit where TdW called me a "western liberal". I'd already called my lawyer .

Well I have posted in Policy about it as right now it seems threads criticising one religion are OK whereas those doing the same to another are not. I hope that is not the case and the mods are just generally taking a harder line of moderation on all religious threads, but they need to let us know one way or the other.

The world will never be at peace because even if you removed all religion and even people memories of religion they would fight about something else, land would be the next big reason to kill and hate.


F1 fan. I did not see TdW's comments last night so cannot comment but if they where removed then surly with good reason. A lot of the so called anti Muslim threads are also edited by the mods and TBH i think they do it fairly and well.

I am surprised anybody rises to TdW's comment and takes the bait and replies on any religious threads. it just feeds him/her and adds to their credibility. Best ignored IMHO

Right guys, please keep posts directly related to the TV program, as mentioned by the OP.

Cheers.

There are plenty of fringe nutters who believe weird stuff about the Holy land. Some are western, but I wouldn't characterize Zionism by this fringe element. It would be dishonest.

Like I said Zionism is just this idea that Israel should exist as a Jewish state...nothing more really.

It's not the only nation state in this world that thinks it should exist.
