Those who 'promote hatred' are the murderers and the 'judges' and not those who point at a pattern in the data.

Depends on how the data gets used, Wolfgang. It's possible (and it is happening, whether you happen to be aware of it or not) for governments to use such data to discriminate against (and even to justify human rights abuses against) innocent people based on incorrect application of such data. The US has quite a few innocent people being held illegally in places like Guantanamo Bay in Cuba because of the kind of data you're talking about.

And of course, by promoting Islam as the new "menace du jour", people don't care quite so much when governments of countries like the US bomb residential areas in countries like Iraq, killing tens of thousands of civilians.

This is an international forum. Your words here effect people in more places than just the region of the world in which you live.
