But it would be pretty easy to come up with a definition that was close to
acceptable around the world about what is hate, although it would only
encompass extremes... [definitely including] probably something along the
lines of incitement to violence.

I never studied Modern History at school, but some of my friends did.  They
had some required reading from _Mein Kampf_, and there was at least one copy
available in the school library.  Does it contain direct incitement to
violence?  Or is it only indirect?
 
Regarding swastikas -- they're still in use, if not by the Girl Guides.
Went to lunch with some acquaintances and their baby wore a dress with a
swastika embroidered on the back.  My initial reaction was shock.  Any time
I want to ask about Nazi atrocities I can ring up my Dad.  Of course, common
sense returned -- it's a good luck symbol in some cultures, as it was in
this case.  Can't see the point in censoring symbols anyway.
