   Jeffrey Kaplan entertained (or was it annoyed?) us in message:

   Actually, hatred is stronger than the words actually used:   
      
    THARG   
    We thought that your dislike of   
    the Earthers would be enough.   
      
    G'KAR   
    Enough for us. Not for you. We   
    do not casually entangle ourselves   
    in troublesome situations.   
    Especially when there's nothing to   
    win. Unfortuantely, you are a   
    liability, not an asset.   
      
      
   I think the "dislike" comes from the fact that the Narn believe that the    
   Earthers (and some of the League) are allowing the Centauri to attack the    
   Narns, and not helping the Narns - I could be wrong in that, but that's    
   what I'd always assumed when I hear it.
