Was Mel Gibson right about the Jews?

Drunk, wife-beater, historian and general philosopher, Mel Gibson, once famously claimed Jews were responsible for all the wars in the world. So let�s test Mr Gibson�s theory. In Thailand, Muslims are fighting Buddhists. No Jews there, Mel. In India/Pakistan Muslims are forever fighting Hindus. Not too many Jews there either, Mel. In Nigeria, Indonesia and Egypt, Muslims are killing Christians. In fact, one of the first things Egyptians did to celebrate their freedom was to kill a load of Coptic Christians. Again, no Jews to blame, Mel. In the Middle East, of course, Muslims and Jews have been slaughtering each other for decades and will continue forever. So Mel is right, here Jews are involved. But also in the Middle East Sunni and Shiite Muslims seem to take huge pleasure in murdering each other. You can�t blame the Jews for that, Mel.

However, if you blame Jews for the world�s problems, Guardianistas, BBC journalists and others of their ilk nod approvingly, whereas if you dare suggest that these Muslim chappies might be a bit troublesome and a little bit intolerant, you�re immediately accused of racism and you may even be killed.
