Related: About this forumMike Malloy - Bill Donahue: Liberals Defend Islam Because They Don’t Like Jews
Bill Donahue, president of the Catholic League, said Tuesday that one of the reasons that liberals defended Islam was because they shared common enemies: The United States and Jews.
On NewsmaxTV, host Steve Malzberg asked Donohue to respond to the recent spat between actor Ben Affleck and comedian Bill Maher.
Well, in 1999, Ben Affleck starred in the anti-Catholic movie Dogma, which said that the Virgin Mary had a daughter through sex with Joseph and that she went and worked in an abortion clinic, he remarked. They asked him about this, is it anti-Catholic? He said it was definitely meant to push some buttons. So we know he is not going to push the buttons of Muslims, just Catholics.
Theyre always bashing us. If they only showed one ounce of the sensitivity to Catholics they show to Muslims I wouldnt even have a job.

(2,066 posts)They've done their homework. They're generally more astute students of history and politics, so they can see beyond the "if you're not for us, you're against us" spin on current events and Middle Eastern affairs put out by the religious right. They know that there are large communities of Orthodox Jews living in Iran. They know that Muslims and Jews were peacefully living together in Palestine before the creation of the state of Israel, and in the Muslim Holy Land at the time of the Crusades. So, us liberals / progressives / high information voters can't paint everything with such a black and white broad brush as do the televangelists and their sheepish followers.
