Yes, based upon visceral qualities.
Doubtless! :-)
I'm sure you hate the people who killed
Daniel Pearl because of ... well ... those same people tore down the Twin
Towers. Right?
Approximately: the emotion is more like repulsion, or the rudiments of hatred. But yes, "the same people," while being a strictly arbitrary phrase, applies to some degree. We'll refer to this mind set by yet another one of two potential arbitrary phrases: "Islamic Extremism" or "religious extremism." In any case, I do not hate them per se. I definitely DO find them repulsive.
What are you doing theorizing on what the media already told you?
There's a difference between the visceral and the intellectual. While, on occasion, my heart boils with rage against "Islamic extremists," I remain aware that the truth and/or facts are not always as they seem or are reported to be.

Ain't gonna happen that way, sorry. A billion goes, we all go.
Obviously. I present the possibility because I believe that is what we are being led to accept.
I put a
dollar on it.
Cheapskate :-) I'd put at least a hundred on it.

Is this reparations?

Yeah, and they're all Muslim, right? Four centuries ago, it was not they.
It's their turn at the stump. One century, it's white Europeans; another it's the blacks; another it's the Jews, etc. etc.

What is the "intelligence" of holocaust - yours or theirs?
I do not propose a holocaust. I propose that we are being LED to a holocaust.
