that’s a great insight by Hitch.

We could add a fourth: hatred of the other.

Or perhaps conceptually that is what flows from his trio. In any event, that’s very insightful and spot on.

I don’t know about the self hatred, but the other two are certainly true. Moslems make the precious snowflakes at Yale and Princeton look positively Viking.
