Is Jacko just trying to fit in with the Bahrain crowd a little better?:
LOS ANGELES Nov 23, 2005 — The Anti-Defamation League on Wednesday demanded that Michael Jackson apologize for allegedly calling Jews "leeches" in a private telephone message that was recorded two years ago and has now surfaced in connection with a lawsuit against the pop star. "Michael Jackson has an anti-Semitic streak, and hasn't learned from his past mistakes," said a statement issued by Abraham H. Foxman, the league's national director. "It seems every time he has a problem in his life, he blames it on Jews."
He has a new set of "meany" people.
Jackson infuriated Jewish groups in 1995 when his song "They Don't Care About Us" included the lyrics "Jew me, sue me, everybody do me, kick me, kike me." Jackson apologized, saying the lyrics were meant to demonstrate the hatefulness of racism, anti-Semitism and stereotyping. He then changed the lyrics.
Oh, he demonstrated that for sure.
On Tuesday, ABC's "Good Morning America" aired portions of a 2003 voice message that Jackson allegedly left for a former adviser, Dieter Wiesner, in which he allegedly accused Jews of leaving performers penniless. The message was among about a dozen released by attorney Howard King, who represents Wiesner and another former adviser who are suing Jackson. A transcript of the message provided Wednesday by King's office quotes Jackson as saying: "They suck them like leeches … I'm so tired of it. I'm so tired of it.
"They start out the most popular person in the world, make a lot of money, big house, cars and everything and end up penniless. It's a conspiracy. The Jews do it on purpose."
I can see that his time with Farrakhan was very productive. Oh wait...2003? It looks like the two had already much in common by the time they met.
Jackson's spokeswoman, Raymone K. Bain, said Wednesday the singer had no comment on the report.
He said some of his favoritest childrens are Jewish.
King said he released the messages to keep Jackson from appearing sympathetic in two upcoming lawsuits. "When you're engaged in a civil suit with Michael Jackson or any celebrity like him, your trial starts long before the jury gets impaneled," King said. "I want to show early on that when he starts trying to act like the victim … we have the evidence to show that he's not the victim, he's the victimizer."
Haul his ass back in court. I'm tired of this asshat getting away with his bullshiat.
