I've read several of your attacks on Moslems recently, but this one really goes too far. You are exhibiting the worst of Zionism -- a blind hatred of an entire religon, just the sort of thing that Jews had to fight for several thousand years of their existence. Maybe it's a natural reaction of a people who have been as oppressed as the Jews, but this sort of attitude makes comparisons between some elements of Zionism today (like you and Rabbi Kahane) and the Nazis seem not so far fetched.
