That, I believe, is what Amanutjob is really meaning. Wallace says he's not "anti-Jew" ("Why he even has Jews in the Iranian Parliament", etc.), just "against the Zionist entity".
He's full of it.

What kind of Jew is Wallace, the kind who would have worked with the Nazis in the concentration camps?

Wallace said. “He [Ahmadinanutjob] pointed out that if European Jews had been sent to Madagascar like the Nazis requested, they wouldn’t have had to kill them.

Wait a minute. I thought Ahmadinanutjob said there wasn't a holocaust (five times by my count). I wish he would make up his mind...before we bomb him.

"if European Jews had been sent to Madagascar like the Nazis requested, they wouldn’t have had to kill them."

The Nazis never had to kill anybody. It was purely voluntary. Ahmadinejad doesn't realize how absurd this statement is.

Apparently, a zionist entity is any group of Jews who refuse to be marched into the gas chambers. Mike Wallace is a disgrace to everyone.

One of the “intriguing ideas cited by Wallace was Ahmadinejad’s suggestion that the Jews of Israel could simply be relocated. “He suggested that a new homeland for the Jews could be established in Alaska, which I find fascinating," Wallace said. “He pointed out that if European Jews had been sent to Madagascar like the Nazis requested, they wouldn’t have had to kill them. You’ve got to admit he has a point there. And who are we to say that the stonings and hangings haven’t been a useful weapon in the battle against immorality?”

Wallace jumped the shark... Buys into "Jews need killin" without choking.

An 88 year old one who needs to repent and turn to and believe in Jesus as the Messiah and Son of God before it's too late.

Sean was confrontational to a certain extent but probably had to hold back because Wallace's son works for Fox. Chris must be proud of his father. (Your guess is as good as mine).

I read that Chris about the family considering a declaration of incompetence, kinda tough to do when CBS considers him a reporter w/ outstanding credentials. Looks like Mike's gonna have to be found running around nekid with an ax before something will be done about him.

We need to create a "Neville Chamberlain Supreme Appeaser Award" and make Mike Wallace an honorary recipient. It is astounding how naieve some of these liberal talking heads can be. They are gullible to a truly amazing and self-delusional level. That wouldn't be a problem, except that there are so many sheeple who stand ready to follow them over the cliff...

While doing a spell-check on "Neville," I came across the following paragraph describing his perspectives regarding Hitler pre-World War II. Read it and consider how it applies to so many of our liberal "friends" today, except that one should substitute "Islamo-fascists and the governments that support them" in place of "Hitler":

"Chamberlain believed that Germany had been badly treated by the Allies after it was defeated in the First World War. He therefore thought that the German government had genuine grievances and that these needed to be addressed. He also thought that by agreeing to some of the demands being made by Adolf Hitler of Germany and Benito Mussolini of Italy, he could avoid a European war." http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/2WWappeasement.htm

"Mr Hitler, are those ovens to stop the Zionist Entity?"
What a braindead pig and so is Wallace.

Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters
