Jacko of Arabia

Michael Jackson has been fitting right in in the Persian Gulf — sort of.

The child-molesting homosexual formerly known as the King of Pop has let it be known that his permanent residence is now in Bahrain, where he may have found neighbors who won't rib him with Macaulay Culkin jokes.

His attitudes toward Jews make him a good fit for the region. On an audiotape that aired Tuesday on "Good Morning American" (hat tip: Wiggins), Jacko allegedly had the following to say about Jews:

[T]hey're like leeches…I'm so tired of it. … It is a conspiracy. The Jews do it on purpose.

Jackson has indulged in anti-Semitism before. His song "They Don't Care About Us" features the lines "Jew me/Sue me/Everybody do me/Kick me/Kike me."

"It seems every time he has a problem in his life, he blames it on Jews," says Abraham Foxman, the Anti-Defamation League's National Director.

But despite his regionally correct attitudes toward Jews, Jackson's recent behavior while visiting nearby Dubai may have raised a few Arab eyebrows.

The Khaleej Times reports that when Latifa M. attempted to use a ladies washroom at the Ibn Battuta Mall, she found herself face to face with the erstwhile King of Pop, who was dressed in a t-shirt, trousers, and the traditional head scarf of Emirati women. She screamed in shock and ran out of the ladies room when she realized that this bizarre character was actually a man. Then she went back in and used her mobile phone to take a picture of him fixing his makeup.

A conflict ensued, with the woman losing her phone and Jacko refusing to compensate her for it. How the clever Jews were able to orchestrate this incident was not explained.
