Wow, so the BNP have decided to have a "totally assimilated" candidate in their party!!! I just don't know whether to laugh about this or not!!! :-|
Quote: BNP in turmoil as members row about 'ethnic' candidate
Selection of Sharif Gawad provokes uproar among 'whites-only' hardcore
Michael White and Martin Wainwright
Saturday April 8, 2006
The Guardian
The British National party was riven last night over its decision to select the grandson of an asylum seeker to fight a seat in next month's local elections.
Sharif Abdel Gawad, whom the BNP describes as a "totally assimilated Greek-Armenian", was chosen to stand in a Bradford ward as part of the party's biggest ever electoral push.
The decision has provoked a backlash among BNP hardliners who described Mr Gawad as an "ethnic" who should be barred from the party on race grounds. One regional organiser responsible for the candidate's selection is thought to be under pressure to resign. Another regional organiser is leading the dissent against the party leadership, saying it had betrayed the members and would confuse voters.

It's a common misconception that Muslims are generally anti-Semitic, which is far from the truth. Muslims and Jews have been living together for ages, but right now, with Israel popping out of nowhere, Jews are not looked highly upon as they were; however, Arab Muslims are really opposed to Israel, not to Jews in general.
Arabs are Semites as well, though, so I can see where this is going. |

| Well you get my drift, suicide bombings and killing civilians doesn't win support. Dialogue and action does. |

The Israelis have killed far more Palestinian civilians and have done worse to the Palestinians other than just killing, but I agree with you. |
