I am disturbed by the double standards of hate speech. It is perfectly acceptable for people on public airwaves in the US -- from the RW echo chamber of cable news to the shock jocks on morning radio -- to call for death and destruction of racial and religious groups. Turn Baghdad into a sheet of glass and all that. Make the desert glow. Invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity.

It's all about how you define terror. As terror truly is defined, it casts a wide net these days -- coercing communities into a particular POV with threats of violence or violence. But terror has become "what an Arab does."
