Well, That Didn't Take Long
The baying of "the-Muslims-are-coming!! The-Muslims-are-coming" crowd. "Look, they've already taken over France!!" (news to the French, I'm sure). "We-gotta-fight-them-there-so-we-don't-have-to-fight-them-here!!" (Did anyone ask the poor b@stards over there if they wanted us staging a full-blown war in their nation??) The fear that browon-people are out to getcha (sure, landing crafts on our beaches filled with blood-thirsty suicide-bombers -- maybe Dubya can give us a "We shall fight them on the beaches . . . speech).
If you haven't figured out why these people are angry, and if you aren't prepared to sit down and try to defuse, perhaps reverse some of that anger, then you really haven't been paying attention. Shame on you . . . your masters have fooled you once, twice, any number of times, and you still don't get it. Stockholm syndrome, perhaps?
