5. Very strange report and article.
"The original report released last August said: "Jewish political extremism manifests itself in the conduct of associations fighting for the Zionist cause." It singled out an association of Jewish students in Geneva.

"Some of the young members are armed. They belong to a security agency and attend every event in the Jewish community. At the moment there is no evidence of links between these groups and the Kahane-Hai terror group."

Ooohh... I knew an Italian-American who worked as an armored truck driver, with some other Italian-Americans. And my brother, Italian-American, owns some guns. Both belong (or belonged) to local Italian-American groups fighting for the preservation of Italian culture, an "Italianist" cause. These Italian-Americans are *armed*, although "at the moment" there is no evidence of links between these individuals and the Red Brigades.

I'm sorry, but isn't this guilt by ethnicity? And, yes, Blocher may not be a paragon of progressivism, but this was a *government* report.
