While I'm no serious analyst of this stuff, it's gotta be said that Tyson wasn't too bad either.. And while he was kinda messed up to begin with, he hasn't really changed. Whereas Ali... well, he's not in his prime, for sure.

West Stains Massive for Lyfe!!

Would you care to explain how or why that's relevant to Ahmadinejad and Ali Khamenei both routinely denying the holocaust occurred and insisting that they wish to see Israel erased from the map?

I've also had enough of racists spouting off on Zionism as though that makes it ok. If Zionism is pretty simply support for a Jewish state. I understand opposing the idea of a religiously founded state. What I don't understand is why SO MANY people seem entirely content defending the laundry list of Islamic states(Iran,Pakistan,Saudi Arabia to name a few) while insisting that even 1 Jewish state is inherently anathema and the center of all evil.

What a piece of shit. I just watched this and I'm just shocked at how this human being can operate under such contradictions. Maybe we should ask Agent Ali Soufan about the American citizens son, a 14 year old boy who was killed by a drone the following week. Specifically targeted because he "might" become a threat to the United States.

I didn't think Obama could do it but he took us from bad to worse. Impeach the mother fucker.

I agree with the concept here, but I think he is overstating it a bit. Actively selling out your own people/family while slavery was actively occurring is rather worse than forgetting (or never learning) that your religion was used as a tenuous justification for slavery many many generations ago.

On the other hand, a more contemporary spinoff of this that lends further weight to the argument can be found in the widespread apprehension amongst whites back in the 60's and 70's that all or most of the African American population would convert to Islam. A lot of writings by prominent white people of that era show just how terrifying that prospect was for them, and many candidly justified that fear by saying that it would reduce or eliminate the level of control that whites had over the black population. Pretty disgusting stuff to read from a modern point of view.

Actually, I'm fairly surprised that wave petered out as quickly as it did. Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, and others brought the trend of blacks converting to Islam into national attention; but it didn't gain as much traction as many whites of the time feared. It would be interesting to see a study into the whys of that -- my best (yet unfortunately rather stereotype-based) guess is that many single-parent or head-of-household African American mothers were reluctant to let their sons convert from their family's traditional Christian upbringing and suppressed or quashed a lot of the momentum of the movement in its early stages.

He is mistaken when he says that Cooper "hardly hit him." Cooper actually knocked Ali into la,la, land. Ali himself said that he was hit so hard his ancestors felt it. If it wasn't for the bell and, most significantly, the deliberate cutting of Ali's glove - Dundee admitted it years later - Cooper may have won. Anyway, Ali, for me, is the greatest ever. And not just in the ring.
