In Vino Veritas

Jesuit Jim Martin, one of the most insightful and witty Catholic writers out there, takes on Mel Gibson and his recent anti-Semitic diatribe after a few too many drinks. Money quote:
"The weirdest part of Gibson's drunken rant was his statement that the Jews are responsible for all the wars. So, did he mean throughout history or just the recent ones, like World War II? And I wonder if that includes Jesus of Nazareth, who, as Gibson may have discovered during his extensive research for his movie, was Jewish."
