I'm not sure when exactly it happened, but I remember being a young child believing, honestly believing that we would all come together, accept each other's differences and I would see world peace in my lifetime. But that didn't happen now, did it? But that's where we were moving towards in the 80's and the 90's, and then it all came to a fucking halt. Now who is to blame? If you want my honest opinion, this progress was halted here in America by the events of 9-11. This gave us an enemy, someone to reasonably express hate against based off both race and religion. From there it's not a hard sell to turn us all against ALL races and religions. It's a fucking game to them, a very profitable game that feeds off your instincts to hate. We've been pawns, they seen that the teachings of acceptance and love was not ultimately profitable, they seen a world full of love leaves defense budgets worthless (and boy is that a lot of money). You people need to wake the fuck up and start preaching love again. You abandoned your post and let the hate flow, and its really fucking sad.

911 may have brought to the attention of America the global terrorist uprising, the assaults on western civilization, on freedom, technology, and on the love of God & the cultural values of the west; however, the atrocities against our people here, non Moslems and otherwise, around the world were and had been raging at full scale in many parts of the world, growing rapidly and moving closer to home every day. To think this was somehow invented by either the perpetrators of 911 or influenced by an absence of cultural diversity and racial tolerance is nowhere near the truth.
