Swine flu?

[Chernabog]

The best quote ever to come out of this fake epidemic is this, from an AP news article entitled "What's in a name? US considering calls to rename 'swine flu' for fear it's misleading":

Then came name complaints from abroad. Israeli officials on Monday suggested renaming it Mexican flu, saying the reference to pigs is offensive to Muslim and Jewish sensitivities over pork. While the biggest outbreak and most serious illness so far is in Mexico, scientists don't yet have proof that's where the new virus originated.

OK.... first of all... WTF. Having the word "swine" in a VIRUS name is "offensive"?

And second, like renaming it the Mexican Flu (by their silly logic) wouldn't be offensive to... oh, I don't know, MEXICANS? I guess since lots of people (this country included) don't consider Mexicans "real" people anyway, that's ok.
