pr00ne,

16 blades is actually spot on! It doesn't matter what colour you think Arabs are - since 9/11 and in the wake of other Islamic extremist attacks, they have lost the moral highground in the world's eyes and it appears to have bcome perfectly acceptable to wage war and invective against them at will.

The Black/White debate has become such a sacred cow however, (no offence to any Hindus present!) that any hint of conflict becomes 'The white man grinding the Black man into the dust again' and obscures whatever worthy intent was attempted in the first place.
