in this world a lot of people are dying, killing over religious things.”

What can one say about the hatred that is being sown around the world.? The first victim of the post 9/11  hatred towards the  suddenly dangerous,non white, 'other' world was another Indian. A Sikh . The attack on a Sikh  gurudwara which killed many more innocent people was also  a hate crime against people who were not white. 

"Why do they hate us?" I would like to turn that American question around and ask it of the Americans.

Why do you hate the nonwhites of the world. ?


In a statement, Mr. Brown quoted Ms. Menendez, “in sum and substance,” as having told the police: “I pushed a Muslim off the train tracks because I hate Hindus and Muslims ever since 2001 when they put down the twin towers I’ve been beating them up.” Ms. Menendez 









Ar Suman, a Muslim, and one of three roommates who shared a small first-floor apartment with Mr. Sen in Elmhurst, said he and Mr. Sen often discussed religion.
Though they were of different faiths, Mr. Suman said, he admired the respect that Mr. Sen showed for those who saw the world differently than he did. Mr. Suman said he once asked Mr. Sen why he was not more active in his faith and it resulted in a long philosophical discussion.
“He was so gentle,” Mr. Suman said. “He said in this world a lot of people are dying, killing over religious things.”
