Sullivan makes it explicit

A couple of entries ago I hinted that conservative blogger Andrew Sullivan, who likes to accuse opponents of Israeli militarism of anti-Semitism, might be a bit of an anti-Muslim, anti-Arab bigot himseld. He says this today:

There is something terribly sick within the Muslim mind at this moment in history. It is Nietzsche's ressentiment, but with God re-attached. We should indeed fear these people for the hideous carnage they can wreak for the sake of their God. But we should never let our fear overwhelm our contempt for them - their sickness, their evil, their petty insecurities, their inability to live meaningful lives and their attempt to assuage this by murdering others in God's name. Yes, they evil. But they are also pathetic, miserable excuses for human beings.

I guess that makes it about as explicit as can be -- he's just denounced the entire religion. He doesn't say that a few fanatical jihadists are sick: To Andew, it's the "Muslim mind" that's sick. And he tosses around accusations of anti-Semitism?

I guess in the same way that a thief always thinks everyone's trying to steal from him, maybe a certain kind of bigot always thinks everyone else is a racist.
