On anti-Muslim bigotry

Glenn Greenwald has a good post on the growing biogotry against Arabs and Muslims which I wholeheartedly endorse. Go read it here.

Unfortunately, mockery of Arabs and Muslims is becoming de rigeur in many social circles. Not too surprisingly, much of this is occurring among those who fifty years ago called adult black males "boy" or "nigger" and black children "pickaninnies," but unfortunately it is expanding way beyond that group to many otherwise decent, well-informed individuals. It's a disgusting and very dangerous development, and it certainly doesn't reflect well on us as Americans. Given our history, we should know better.
