Not only I was in NYC on 9/11, my own brother was taken to hospital as he was walking to his office across the street from the towers. And if you recall from those days, you know that I took time off everything to volunteer for help and donated blood. In general, I don't like Arabs. In particular, I've never met a Palestinian whom I did not dislike. A good chunk of my personal friends are Jews, especially those raised in the greater NYC and eastern Europe. None of these makes an iota of difference to how I think we should behave. I behave according to my principles and I let others fallow their own morals (or lack there of). The way I deal with prejudices is by devising protocols and a system of beliefs that I deem as correct. I adhere to those principles regardless of if I am dealing with an Arab or a Jew. There is an objective reality out there that is independent of our state of mind. If you can't deal with it with a clear head, then you are not qualified to deal with it.
