Great Come Back

After being slammed for his comments in a recent speech that "Jews rule the world" Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has issued this rebuttal.

``In my speech I condemned all violence, even the suicide bombings, and I told the Muslims it's about time we stopped all these things and paused to think and do something that is much more productive. That was the whole tone of my speech, but they picked up one sentence where I said that the Jews control the world,'' he told Bangkok Post in an exclusive interview yesterday, which covered aspects of his 22 years as leader of Malaysia, as well as his straight-forward views on terrorism, democracy and US policy.

Dr Mahathir added, however, that ``the reaction of the world shows that they [Jews] do control the world''.


Uh huh. Good to see you're really getting it there buddy.
