Ben Franklin, anti-Semite

I'm not the one who's saying that. It is the "considered opinion" of yet another fruitcake Syrian politician: http://www.memritv.org/clip_transcript/en/1629.htm. Read what he had to say; it's not very long at all, though it still manages to incorporate so many of the most hateful, base anti-Semitic stereotypes.

And these are the people to whom James "F--- the Jews" Baker, President Peanut Farmer, Governore Huckabee of Arkansas and a whole host of others want us to talk.

UPDATE (5:14 p.m.): For more on this fraudulent prophecy, which the ADL has said Franklin never made, go here: http://www.adl.org/special_reports/franklin_prophecy/franklin_documenting_fraud.asp. On the other hand, for just one example of who believes this hate propaganda go here (at your own peril): http://realmofky.blogspot.com/2007/11/benjamin-franklin-on-jews.html.
