SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) - Two Jewish members of a state hate crimes panel resigned in disgust, saying it was impossible to serve with a Nation of Islam member appointed to the group.

Richard Hirschhaut, executive director of the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center, and Lonnie Nasatir, a regional director for the Anti-Defamation League, resigned Thursday. They said the commission's work has been compromised.

``The work of this commission is far too important to have been hijacked by one polarizing and divisive figure,'' Hirschhaut said.

Sister Claudette Marie Muhammad, director of community outreach for the Nation of Islam, was named to the Governor's Commission on Discrimination and Hate Crimes in August. Her presence was unknown to most people - including Gov. Rod Blagojevich - until last month, when she invited members of the commission to attend a speech by Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.

In the speech, Farrakhan accused ``Hollywood Jews'' of ``promoting lesbianism, homosexuality'' and other ``filth.'' That angered some commission members who publicly complained Muhammad's work for Farrakhan clashed with the panel's goals.

Blagojevich said he did not know he had appointed Muhammad and wished his staff had discussed it with him. His office would not comment on the controversy except to say the governor had accepted Nasatir's resignation. He quickly filled the vacancy with Rep. Lou Lang, but did not return repeated calls seeking comment on the resignations.

Lang, a Democrat and leader in the Jewish caucus, was among some lawmakers who called for Muhammad to denounce Farrakhan's comments, but he said he will give her the benefit of the doubt.

``I'm going to assume for the moment that this person is not espousing hate,'' he said.

Muhammad issued a statement Wednesday supporting ``fairness to all people regardless of race, creed, color, national origin or religious beliefs.'' She did not return a message left at Nation of Islam headquarters seeking comment

Lou can kiss my white ass.

he and david duke have more in common than they realize, their only difference(s) are their similarities.

His anti-semitism is .... wrong. What he rants against, and what he promotes - self reliance - are good things. I understand why he doesn't like the white race. I don't think I could have a dialogue with him.

As an outsider from African American society, I can point to one thing where they f'd up really bad - Malcolm X said in 1964 I believe it was "It's not burn, baby burn; it's learn, baby, learn, so you can earn, baby, earn." That was the key, and the African American culture f'd it up. Please correct me if I'm wrong about any of that.

Louie Farrakhan holds as much appeal to most blacks as David Duke does in white society, which is to say that he makes his living on the farthest extreme edge of black culture in the same way Duke does in white society.... That said however, Farrakhan is different in one important way; he's held in high esteem by a number of Hip-Hop urban culture trend setters, including Eryka Badu, Ice Cube, Snoop Dog, Bones Thugs and Harmony, Busta Rhymes, Nas, Common Sense, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane and Lakim Shabazz...the list goes on. Constrasted with their popularity in Hip-Hop, the black community at large is overwhelmingly theologically Christian and evangelical.

Duke holds no such appeal within white religious circles of any size or significance. Farrakhan is a hate monger of the highest order and his influence on kids drawn to Hip-Hop culture is definitely something to be concerend about IMO.

Unfortunately it appears that the other kind are extinct... once the Dem leaders who looked like they might be thinking of growing a spine started receiving anthrax letters...

Nearly five years later, we're no closer to capturing the anthrax mailer than we are to catching/killing Bin Laden....

You are right. Nothing surprising about Farakhan being suspected in Malcolm X's assassination.......we can't have blacks having to learn tolerance for the white man, not lumping every white man to the past and learning to work along side him.

One would be surprised at the popularity of David Duke...

To be honest, from my experience, that it's easier to make a non-racist to a racist than to make a racist into a non-racist.
