Interesting. With the Muslim attacks–and I’m not sure whether the book talks of this–hatred is not directed towards the jihadists themselves so much, but to the forces that tolerate and actively transport them into European countries. I make the analogy with lions and tigers; I like them in their natural environment; but I don’t want to see them wandering the streets of my hometown! These people are great in Arabia where they can jihad back and forth and whatever they usually do.
Speaking of hatred, John Michael Greer’s recent article, “Hate is the New Sex,” is well worth a read.
