The "annihilate the Jews" segment has a section on why Arab culture is better (1:06 after the start). A clone of Mickey Mouse stands in a studio decorated in foamies you can buy in any Home Depot with western digits (<a HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Arabic_numerals" rel="nofollow">not the digits used in Arabic</a>). In front of a TV camera that was probably produced in the west, it tells us how Arab culture is better. Do they even know they have an inferiority complex? Moderators, please delete my previous comment.

Many people will find this annoying and distasteful, and will be less inclined to accept what you have to say. I obviously agree with you, but I think your sarcasm might be counterproductive.
