Add the name Samuel P.Huntington to the list of those who

[Veggie Meathead]

are waging a war against those who look different from us and who believe in a different religion from the Christians and who happen to speak a different language than English.This man is a Distinguished
Professor at Harvard.In the past few years he has published a book titled THE CLASH OF CIVILIZATIONS AND THE REMAKING OF WORLD ORDER.In this book, he divides the world as consisting of several religion based civilizations:Judeo-Christian, Islamic,Hindu and Sinic(Chinese).
His thesis is that the history of the Christian and Islamic civilizations makes conflict between them inevitable.The Hindu civilization (India) is likely to side with the Christians and the Sinic may or may not stand on the sidelines.

He has followed up this book with a more recent one, titled WHO ARE WE?In this book he traces the changes he sees in his old neighborhood in the Bronx since his departure to the well heeled suburbs of Boston.
He arrives at the conclusion that his old neighborhood is now populated by people that he cannot consider to be "TRUE AMERICANS" because ,horror of horrors, they speak a different language.They are not likely to become integrated with true Americans.Huntington imposes his own set of rules on the unassimilated.All in all a great exercise in hiding one's racism in high falutin' words.

The man's Islamophobia and thinly veiled anti-Spanish polemic makes one wonder when Universities such as Harvard descended into the gutter.The contemptible part of these bigots is that they use scholarly covers to hide the ugliness of their thoughts and so make racism and religious bigotry more acceptable.Remember this man's name along with the PNAC crowd.
