So it seems that Borat — the racist, misogynist, khrum-grabbing “reporter” from Da Ali G Show — has become a serious public relations problem for the former Soviet Republic of Kazakhstan. See here for an old New Yorker piece, and here for the latest on this important story.
Respek.

Huh! This post made me read lot about anti-semitism, anti-zionism and etc. and I was wondering why are all these happened/happening! Are they the waste produced because of progress/survival of mankind?
We need more serious/deeper systematic effort to eliminate this waste and reduce its generation in first place. I am posting this just because of the shock/dread I got from reading about anti-semitism.

I liked this quote from wikipedia:
“…have led some to question Borat’s sexual ethics.”
