Is it not what they are raised on? Similar to some of the data in polls show here with a majority of blacks being far removed from the majority of Americans. A lot of blacks believe the hate Jesse Jackson and Louis Farrakhan are spewing. Just the other day Farrakhan is going around spewing that one of the levees in NewOrleans was blown up on purpose. wcnc.com "I heard from a very reliable source who saw a 25 foot deep crater under the levee breach. It may have been blown up to destroy the black part of town and keep the white part dry," Farrakhan said. Get a map and you'll see the levee break wiped out white and black neighborhoods, rich and poor. Now do we blame the hate mongerers or the people stupid enough to believe what they want to hear or both? If it begins at childhood in school then we need to start there. If it begins in the home, that will never change.

re: Well, the whole comment that "most suicide bombers are fighting to remove a democratic government from land they consider their own" can probably be rephrased as "most suicide bombers are from Palestine". Substitute "95%" for "most", which is the fact, and your rephrasing doesn't work. re: And he's ignoring the fact that this particular guy blew up a bunch of Iraqi laborers. No, I'm not. Read my posts. re: It is comparable to person A going to a California winery, telling a bunch of grape picking Mexicans to gather around if they want work tomorrow, and then killing all of them (and himself), and having someone else say that that's person A's way of protesting the current US administration, and its the administration that made person A do it. Huh? John
