Please let's not paint "The Middle Eastern people" with such
a broad paranoid brush.  The people that were celebrating
for the cameras were some Palestinians.  Most people of the
Middle East are decent people who do not support the terrorist
acts of yesterday.  We don't need another situation like during
WWII where thousands of Japanese Americans were rounded
up and put into camps.  I should say that I doubt that all
Palestinians support yesterday's acts either.  The only way that
a world war will start from this is if angry paranoid people act
upon their bigotry and lash out at anyone regardless of guilt.
A few bozos that I work with have already been saying how
we should just nuke the entire Middle East.  Now *that's* what
really scares me.
