My whole reasoning behind calling this women and this article silly is that it's been drummed into our heads that arabs = terrorists. What evidence have we seen, besides the 19 mugshots half of which are of men still alive, that arabs boarded these planes and flew them into those buildings? None. Could they have been arab, yes, could they have been white, yes, brown, yes, yellow yes, christian, yes, muslim, yes, athiest, yes, american, yes, israeli, yes, iraqi, yes.
Everyday since 9/11 the media has bombarded us with the idea that arabs are terrorist. Are some arabs "terrorist"? Certainly, are some white, black, orange and yellow people "terroists"? Certainly. Somebody is trying really hard to make us feel no compassion for the arab world. Why? Because we would never allow our country to fight a war against a group of people the masses felt compassion for.
It may be just me, but when I see a group of arab men together, I don't duck and run or think Al Qaida.
