Randy Gaddo and Robert MacFarlane seem to present some obvious lessons learned from the bombing in Lebanon that occurred 25 years ago today in op-eds in the NY Times.

When I read about tires being slashed, spitting in people's faces, and how 10% of americans cannot shake the idea that Obama is somehow a closet Muslim, it gets me thinking about why.

Why would people be so convinced that their perspective is right that they are willing to resort to violence or vandalism?
