The sad thing is that now Wildfire**MM will go around repeating this story as fact, because it fits his ‘Israel is the worst mistake on the planet’ theory.
Why be sorry. At least you got to hear the opinions of other people here about this article
And Xan at least took the time to read the thread and discover that it was nothing but bullshit.
You appear to have wandered in, days late, and reacted based on your overwhelming desire to believe evil of Israel even when it is unfounded.
I’m an enigma
Please strike “Europe” from your profile location. You give us a bad reputation.
Go hide you danish sausage!
Coming from a country that are so infested with porn and other abnormalities you should be silent
You’re an idiot.
That’s not how you spell ignoramus.
Infested, or blessed ?
The SDMB is an opportunity.
Do not waste it.
No, you’re not. I’ve seen enough of your postings to have a fairly good impression of at least some of your positions. And while disagreement and debate is always an inevitable and necessary part of a healthy society, I will not debate or discuss anything with someone who feels that Israel does not have a right to exist as a nation. Criticism of a country’s policies and actions is fine. Calling for its destruction and removal from the world map is quite another thing.
I can only hope that you are not representative of your generation in whatever European country you call home.
If you don’t mind my asking, which country are you from?
As for the story in the original post - puh-leese. I remember this story making the round in the mid-nineties, and at age 17 I could point out to its spreaders that it’s fucking impossible. Humans and chimpanzees have 95+% of their DNA in common. So how much do you think the average Jew has with the average Arab? And even if you could design a bioweapon to attack people based on the teeny tiny differences in question, how would you deal with genetic diversity?
Who thinks this shit up?
I went to school with a guy who was switching careers to become a programmer. In an earlier life he had been a member of an intelligence unit in the military. Being a bit of a history buff, he had done a lot of research on his predecessors in that trade, and when he got out of the military, he bought a vanity license plate* bearing the word ENIGMA.
One day some yokel pumping gas asked him "Why do you have a license plate that says “enema”? The next time his plates were up for renewal, he did not bother retaining the vanity plate.
Just sayin’.
*In the U.S., most states permit car owners to pay a few more dollars and specify the text on their plates, up to six or seven characters, as long as no one else has already picked the same text.
It was Tim Curry.
You fucking child. You are the stupidest fucking person in the history of the fucking internet.
You should be ashamed of yourself. Not for your anti-Jew ravings. Just for your absolute boneheadedness. Do the other kids in your middle school nickname you Pachycephalosaurus?
I have to disagree on that one 
No, not really, but isn’t it equally disturbing that someone thought of doing it??
Thank you. Jesus fuck, when someone’s this fucking stupid, I really wish we could have them sterilized for the good of humanity.
I’m very serious, Xan, when I ask you to leave the SDMB and never come back. Morons like you are simply incapable of contributing anything here. You are simply that fucking stupid. People like you are the problem with the world. Please have the decency to have yourself castrated to as to ensure that your genes are not perpetuated.
Why am I not surprised this retard is stupid enough to believe this?
Fortunately, my memory for complete morons is rather good.
You know, if you had the mental abilities of, say, a chihuahua, or maybe a slightly above average tomato, you would have recognized that - regardless of the scientific possibility or impossibility of this - that this smacks of crazy anti-Semitic conspiracy mongering. I don’t know whether or not you hate Jews like the people who invent these lies, but you’ve revealed that you are stupid enough to believe them, like the people who participated in pogroms against Jews because of rumors about drinking the blood of Christian babies. Stupid people like you are a plague upon the planet; people who accept bizarre lies like this without thought are simply responsible for just about every bad thing that happens. Your kind are the ones who get stirred up into committing acts of great evil. Have some simple compassion for the world and please make sure you never reproduce.

Any reason why Wildfire had to point out his religion?
From http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=7696260#post7696260 (What explains the SDMB’s large Jewish Membership?"
My guess is Sweden; maybe Norway.
Visits Swedish news sites, and can translate Swedish to English.
“Many users are arrogant besserwissers.” “Besserwisser” is German for “know-it-all.” Saw the term on a lot of *.se sites, though.
Knows a lot about Norwegian.

Fuck. I suspected it when I saw him calling Rune a “danish sausage”, an unlikely term of abuse to be used by anyone who’s not a Swede (or possibly Norwegian; I don’t know). This means the same society and school system that produced me also produced someone as mindmeltingly dumb as that guy. I apologize on behalf of my nation.
[sub]Oh, and you’re right by the way: “besserwisser” is a commonly used term in Sweden; so much so that I was surprised that no-one knew it when I read that thread. I guess I had just assumed that it was common in European languages in general.[/sub]
