23. It's not that everyone is obligated to write about Sudan...
It's that Gandhi wrote that Israel and the Jews are the BIGGEST PLAYERS in the world's culture of violence - which seems like an extremely biased remark in a world that does include the horrors of Sudan, not to mention Somalia, Burma, and many other countries - including the USA and UK in their pre-emptive invasion of Iraq and the horrors that this has caused.

If someone said Arabs/Muslims/Palestinians were the BIGGEST PLAYERS in the world's culture of violence, this would also be bigoted. Indeed, many Republicans do imply it, re Muslims at any rate, and it is certainly bigoted.
