M is for Misanthropy

An AlphaBytes Entry

Now here's a word that describes a specific sect of savages who sit so primal on their little homemade thrones in the Middle East. It means the hatred of mankind. How perfectly it describes them.

Those who've taken hostages and murdered them because their demands have not been met. Fully aware their demands would NOT be met. Murdering to murder. Their hatred is not truly of all things Western. It is hatred of all humanity, hatred of their own kind, hatred of life. Devoid of any humanity in having sold their souls to such a dark force.
