First off, there is a difference between [...]

I will agree with your own definition of anti there.

There are tons of antis who are merely ignorant; they have been misinformed for so long that they have nothing to compare against the myths.

Not an anti to me. Ignorance is an excuse to be ignorant; especially when ignorance is what is passed as knowledge.

There are also people some here would call antis who want better treatment and understanding for us, though they still think adult-child sexual contact is wrong and harmful.

Again not an anti to me. Captured in the anti discourse environment, and not leaving it (maybe unable to due to ignorance or the environment itself), but not themselves antis.

to me an anti is someone who would harm or kill us given the opportunity; they hate and persecute us.

Agreed. With the only addition of "would or does or did".

Someone who just thinks adult-child sex is wrong but doesn't really hate us is not an anti in my book.

Agreed - that's pretty middle of the road, imho, and if they really have an open mind they could easily be shown otherwise with a freer discourse in society - or through exchange of personal experiences.

to me an anti is someone who would harm or kill us given the opportunity; they hate and persecute us.

So again, these ones are all bin Ladens as far as I'm concerned. Understood now?

Muslims are better off not having him around too, because it is people like him who gave them such a bad name in the first place.

Mmh, no. Who gives Islam a bad name are the millions (or at least, noisy as if they were millions) Islamophobes in the West. Many professional Islamophobes get more airtime on American airwaves any month than Awlaki did in his whole life.

Notice, also, that the Islamophobes are usually also big on other bigotries, ethnic, sexual and of any kind, not just Islamophobia; although they are also early to cry out for PC language when it is a bigotry that they don't endorse today.
