No Such Thing As Anti-Semitism
An XBox 360* to the first non-anonymous commenter to identify the source of this quote:
Some...insist on saying that Hitler killed millions of innocent Jews in furnaces and they insist on it to the extent that if anyone proves something contrary to that they condemn that person and throw them in jail.Hint: It wasn't Mel Gibson or Mel Gibson's father. Or Paul De Man.
UPDATE: It was the president of Iran. That was quick. Too quick. Okay, there's still an Xbox 360 on the line** for the first person to score 100% on this impromptu quiz:

2) Anti-Semitism is a) just as indefensible as racism, no matter whose mouth or pen it issues from, b) something only white Christofascists can do, a bit like racism, or
