What scares me about this is that in the west we are , apparently, are supposed to give a reasonable resonse to a typical racist diatribe that defies logic and all common sense. How long do we have to play this game before thinking people demand an end to such hate? The muslim world has within their media english speaking PR men that are carefully selected to misinform the rest of us that the majority of muslims are on our side in the war on terror and that so called moderate muslims are in fact supporting us. that seems to aleviate the concerns of the wishful thinking westerners "who are intellectually arrogant and unwilling to see the facts" by feeding us with a theory that the Jews and the western world bear equal responsibility for the current unrest. Christopher Bollyn is clearly an anti semetic opportunist to the currrent strife but the fact that we are wasting time refuting his article is desturbing. I do however have faith in the intellegence of all of us. Hate,however, has it's own agenda
