And Malaysian PM says it was taken out of context okay..but it's too late I guess cos people from the west condemned him for the anti semitic remark. Oh but hey others were okay about the comment. Most of the leaders who were present when the speech was delivered were less critical. The Iranian president, Mohammad Khatami, said: "It was a brilliant speech. Very logical." He added: "Anti-semitism is a product of the west. Muslims are not anti-semitic."Hamid Karzai, the Afghan president, said: "Dr Mahathir spoke of the inhibitions within the Islamic world, and that those inhibitions must go away, and I entirely agree with that."
Oh..kay, but others don't agree hence the flak from other leaders. I guess it's just a case of open mouth insert foot or something like that.
