Who benefits the most from American's hating Muslims? - the people most threatened by them, the Israelis.

This is emblematic of the level of discourse here. Your statement assumes that Americans hate Muslims, a proposition I don't think is necessarily true. Some do, some don't. I doubt very seriously that most do. Many, like me, are very wary. A wariness, I might add, which is amply justified.

No one benefits from hate, fool.

Not even the Israelis.

Hate is corrosive and stupid.

A lesson the Muslims need to learn and learn quickly.

I note the racism implicit in your post. <Who benefits the most from American's hating Muslims? - the people most threatened by them, the Israelis. > Why should American's get an apostrophe when Muslim's and Israeli's don't? It is obviously bias against Muslim's and Israeli's, if not Zionists and Jews.

I hasten to add that I have nothing against Jews or Zionists, some of whom are my best friend's. It's just that I ran out of apostrophe's in that sentence.

Also, it seems pretty clear that American's don't hate Muslim's or King George II wouldn't go holding hands with blokes from Saudi Arabia, and they'd all get nuked.
