I respect opinions, I don't give opinions on them. I learnt to respect them. And I also have a very clear opinion on Rivaldo.

The American Jewish left gets a lot of press time. But the American Jewish right does not. And in many ways, the American Jewish right is every bit as well-organized and perhaps better funded than the American Jewish left. And they also come out with criticism.
