Default ( OT ) I'm afraid some here will agree with this nut case


"Savage Nation's" syndicated radio host Michael Savage, (
http://mediamatters.org/items/200405130004 )already infamous for telling a
gay caller to "get AIDS and die" (MSNBC fired him for that), boasts 6
million American listeners per week, according to the nonprofit watchdog
group Media Matters.org. On May 11, while repeatedly calling Abu Ghraib
"Grab-an-Arab" prison, he launched into this little tirade:

"I think there should be no mercy shown to these sub-humans. I believe that
a thousand of them should be killed tomorrow. I think a thousand of them
held in the Iraqi prison should be given 24 hour[s] -- a trial and executed.
I think they need to be shown that we are not going to roll over to them ...
Instead of putting joysticks, I would have liked to have seen dynamite put
in their orifices and they should be dropped from airplanes ... They should
put dynamite in their behinds and drop them from 35,000 feet, the whole pack
of scum out of that jail."

The next day Savage added that Arabs were "racist, fascist bigots," and(
purported http://mediamatters.org/items/200405140003 )(to speak for a
majority of Americans regarding the war. He offered several all-American
solutions to our problems in the Middle East.

"Right now, even people sitting on the fence would like George Bush to drop
a nuclear weapon on an Arab country. They don't even care which one it would
be. I can guarantee you -- I don't need to go to Mr. Schmuck [pollster John]
Zogby and ask him his opinion ... The most -- I tell you right now -- the
largest percentage of Americans would like to see a nuclear weapon dropped
on a major Arab capital. They don't even care which one...

"I think these people need to be forcibly converted to Christianity ... It's
the only thing that can probably turn them into human beings."

He also made sure to plug his credentials.

"I'm going to give you one further example from my background as an
anthropologist just so that you -- I'm trying to put context on this because
you can go crazy if you don't have the context on this, because I'm going to
lead up to something of what we must do to these primitives. Because these
primitives can only be treated in one way, and I don't think smallpox and a
blanket is good enough incidentally ... Smallpox in a blanket, which the
U.S. Army gave to the Cherokee Indians on their long march to the West, was
nothing compared to what I'd like to see done to these people."
