And it's not arrogant to think that "the only way" is through "a lot of bloodshed"?
Your classmates were not the recepients of a western education until they came to the west to study. They've been taught for the first 18 years of their lives to hate, surprise surprise that they didn't change their minds as soon as they got to the states. Your persian friend, however, was raised with a western education, is dating a catholic girl, and is proving my point. Thanks.
