Well, the London mayor is at it again. It wasn't enough that he called President Bush "The greatest threat to life on the planet" or that he wanted Castro to visit London. Today's outrage is over a scuffle with a reporter in London. From Reuters:
LONDON (Reuters) - London's outspoken Mayor Ken Livingstone has refused to apologise for calling a Jewish newspaper reporter a war criminal and concentration camp guard, despite complaints from Britain's main Jewish group.
"Are you a German war criminal?" Livingstone was heard saying on a tape recording of the exchange with the Evening Standard journalist at a event to mark the 20th anniversary of former cabinet member Chris Smith announcing he is gay.
When the journalist said he was Jewish and was offended by the mayor's remarks, Livingstone replied: "Actually you are just like a concentration camp guard."
He also called the Evening Standard, a newspaper he has clashed with in the past, a "load of scumbags".
How did this guy get elected? No wonder that Anti-Semitic attacks have risen to record-high levels in UK.
