The Palestinians are Semites, and so are the Jews. It always amuses me when
Semites are called "anti-Semites".
People cry racism, fascism, nazism, whatever-ism far too easy, and mostly when
it's plainly wrong.
Mike's statement might be insulting to those who eat Halal, but it has nothing
to do with race. On the other hand, Mike likes to call followers of some
leftish ideas and/or misconceptions "fascists", whereas, obviously, they're not.
The bottom line: just don't use big words unless you fully understand what
they mean. And your average -ism is a big word.
