Haha I like that one nige
Is it just me or is there an australia wide hate for him and the general muslim race ??
Coulndt be farther from the truth. The vast majorioty of the western world hold a huge dislike for the activities that he has organised, and I suspect that there is also a large portion of the eastern world that also hold that same view.
Most people need to find a specific object to focus their feelings on, and its oftern eaiser to balme a faceless group rather than an actual individual. In saying that the American Media machine did a fantastic job of labeling OBL as the point of thier focus (and rightly so)
Lets see if this means America begins to pull out of the middle east...
The confusion between the dislike of one idividual and translating that to hatred for a group of people who share a common belief system is what led the world to the surrent state.
Be very careful estyre about what opinions you hold. Its racism and hatred that put OBL at war with Christians. Its hatred that put Christians at war with OBL, and its OBL that put Christains against Muslims.
I per say, dont hate OSB, but rather despise everything that he represented. For all I know he may have beeen a top notch dude who like datsuns as much as I do! (probaly not, but i dont know either way for sure). I certainly dont condone anything that he orgainsed or represented, but be aware that Christians are not perfect angels either.
I also hold no issue with people of the muslim faith and as Levy right pointed out

Just a hate for him and what he has done not his religion.
Every faith has a couple of bad apples
I think thats a key idea to take away.
I could rabbit on for some time, as social psycology, anthropology, and philosphy is a little side hobby of mine, but ill stop here.
Just think is all.
