Whitman and Boby,

Reading your posts saddens me terribly.

"They" are not monolithic.

The Palestinians do not celebrate out of 'ignorance,' in a narrow sense of the word; they are among the most highly educated populations in the world. And if they are taught to hate us, so are we taught to hate them. Their complaints against Israel and the United States are not without reason.

Let us not invent the enemy, but find him and destroy him.
