This Latin derived word is neither the past tense of execute, nor is it the process of removing an object from inside a crate. It is by definition: feel or express great loathing for; in other words, severe hatred. Many examples of this can be found in past human history, especially between people in power and common people or Hoi polloi. Many civilizations had their foundations crumble when disdain was used as a mortar during the building process. The citizens were looking for laws to protect and assist them in their everyday existence, while management sought behaviors, such as paying taxes and military conscription, that were beneficial to harmony of the group, especially the well-to-dos. This sometimes lead to resistance, revolts, and revolutions and generated hatred between the conflicting parties. The government was usually the winner as they had voted in absolute power to imprison or put to death any hostile belligerent at their discretion. The American revolt against England is a classic example of abhorrent behavior of some citizens against the ruling powers of the King over in Europe. Although it culminated into a successful break, animosity always lingered back at the Motherland. In 1968, an incident occurred when a Palestinian, that was born in an area of the Middle East that was in flux, grew up execrating the newly established country of Israel and all people who supported them. An American politician who was running as a 1968 Presidential Candidate, expressed support for the new country and its military stance in dealing with the unrest of the disputed border regions of Jordan. This individual lost it 1 day and assassinated Robert F. Kennedy. The English saw an opportunity to right a wrong and instantly knighted, not once, but twice, the culprit who took out this American symbol of Imperialism amid the Vietnam War. Do you remember England’s honorary title bestowed upon the murderer?
