Dude,

Presumably, a standard dictionary definition will suffice:

  Bigot

  "a person obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or
   her own opinions and prejudices"

(http://www.m-w.com/home.htm)

I hope you aren't saying that you are having difficulty
finding examples of that in the Israeli/Palestinian conflict!

In the USA, example would be white supremacy groups, and the
Nation of Islam (black nationalist "muslims").

See the Soutern Poverty Law Center's web site.

regards,
ep

ps, I'm on digest-mode, have political threads been banned 
from the list yet?
