How can someone hate an entire nation, when they have not met everyone(or anyone) in that nation?

Question

Mislabeling and demonizing are dangerous tools in the hands of propagandists....

Answer 1

Look at the way President of America refers to Muslims as Islamo-Fascists and whole string of nations as an Axis of Evil!!! And they call it a civilized nation!! Can the world afford this violence of words? How does the civilized Europe allow it to pass?

While Israel was bombing civilian homes in Lebanon they actually said we are punishing them for not stopping Hezbollah!! When Bush went out in hunt for revenge in Iraq and Afghanistan they legitimised killing of innocent civilians as 'colateral damage'!!! How many Europeans or Amercans like to be 'colateral damage'? Would they accept it as fate if some country head were to declare them that for the greater good of the world!!!!!!!







THINK! It is not so hard at all!

Answer 2

You are right, people should not hate unless they know the facts. But then every one is not educated enough to think logically. Sometimes hate can be a be a past time like gossip. People just love to collectly chew a subject when they have nothing else to do, especially in developed nations where the per capita income is high enough to give them time to chew on such topics!!

Answer 3

Everybody looks for somebody to hate. If it's thier next door
neighbor. It's human nature. Because we have problems.
What more can you say?

I agree. We stereotype so easily. The citizens of a country do not always reflect the beliefs of their leaders.
