If you don't think that Trump is an anti-Muslim xenophobe, after all that has transpired in the recent past, then really there is no point for us to continue discussing this argument. It is akin to me saying that 2 + 2 = 4, and you denying it.
Trump is guilty of all three. He has solidarised himself with a leader of the British fascist party. What more is there to say?


if you believe that then you have all missed the genius of Trump. trump is whoever his people want him to be at any given time.

He is actually a clinical narcassist! Everything he does is for self adulation and his clinical need for approval.

In fact, all of the qualities you are claiming for trump are actually just the qualities of his supporters. all he is doing is giving a voice to those people so that they will love him!

Believe it or not, its that simple.

I find it breathtakingly confusing that a person can take a video of his mates throwing a blindfolded homosexual off a building and more likely cheering him on, posting it to social media and then when someone else reuses that imagery ,showing the absolute barbarity of some people, they are called racist and some type of "Phobic' for showing a certain type of person being, in this case, homophobic,,but, because a christian, white man posts the same video he is called a racist???? Shocked Shocked Shocked Imagine if he was a Collingwood supporter as well,or Eddie???

Absolutely correct, but the right-wingers on this board (who unfortunately, like so many places on the internet, dominate beyond their real world relevance) will never agree.

The network obviously thought it was fine. The show is pretaped and sits there for weeks before airing.

I reckon there's a bit of any publicity is good publicity going on here

The Irish, Kiwis and Tasmanians are the real victims here. People have been taking the piss out of them for generations and no one says boo. Make a joke about a Jew and your shouted down as a racist. Don’t israelis have a sense of humour?

Bit disappointed in Eddie. He's given material to work with about a Jew and a Scotsman and the best he can come up with is a gag about pocket money? Surely he can work in a foreskin and a kilt.

Look the point is, who are the forces with power and who are those who have none? The US has destroyed the nation of Iraq, Libya and coming close with Syria. It has pulverised Iraq with devastating weapons, including depleted uranium and fuel air bombs, and most lately has been involved in mass civilian casualties in Mosul. And don't forget, the original pretext for starting the war (Iraq's weapons of mass destruction) is now known to be a total lie. US gunships destroyed a hospital in Afghanistan, incinerating at least 30 to 50 patients and doctors/nurses. It is the US unleashing massive firepower on to defenceless nations in the Middle East. This can only be justified by demonising/stigmatising the populations of the Middle east. Hence, Islamophobia, is encouraged by all Western governments, because it justifies their participation in US led wars. So ,you are shocked when a white Christian who posts the horrific murder of a homosexual by an islamic fundamentalist is denounced as a racist. I don't know if he is a racist, (probably he is), but more importantly, by posting such a video he is doing exactly what the war criminals in Washington (Democrat and Republican alike) would want. I am more shocked by the fact that there are not more videos being posted of US war crimes in Mosul, or Afghanistan. Oh wait, there was one man who did post such videos, Julian Assange. He was then demonised as a traitor for daring to expose the criminal violence of the US military in Iraq. Hopefully, you are just as shocked about what has happened to him as you are about the white Christian.

You are incredibly naive, where do you get your news from, Russia Today or the Isis channel?

There were wars in Middle East long before America along with a coalition of countries sought to replace dictatorships with democracy. Remember Iran v Iraq war, Iraq v Kuwait, Israel v Syria, Israel v Lebanon etc.

I notice you had no objection to the killing of thousands of American civilians during 9/11, and you only object when the Americans quite rightly invaded Afghanistan to put an end to the barbaric taliban who were not only ruining their own country but were protecting Al qaeda.

Where does your allegiance lie? You sound like an Isis sympathiser upset that the US (along with a coalition of other countries) has torpedoed your murderous caliphate. I’ll pass your details to the security hotline for surveillance.

It is disappointing to know that unfortunately Collingwood has fans like you.

I find this viewpoint troubling. You're falling all over yourself to excuse barbaric acts on one side and demonising everything the other side does. So, by your reckoning the middle-east is a blameless victim and the west are all war-criminals?

The 9/11 attacks precede the war in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. The response by the west was not surprising and, in war, many innocent people will be killed. It has always been thus.

Should the west feel bad because we can use well equipped fighting forces in order to limit our own casualties? Should we not do that to make it 'fairer'?

If there is to be an ongoing threat to the 'western way of life' then I'm not feeling compelled to apologise for our defence of it.

Just take a moment to compare the relative freedoms and lifestyles of a typical middle-eastern society and a typical western one. I'm prepared to contend that western values and approaches, while not perfect, are far superior to the alternatives.

I don't understand the self-loathing.
