Muslims Worried Over ‘Backlash’ as San Bernardino Victims Fight for Life
by Warner Todd Huston 4 Dec 2015Washington D.C.
Even as the victims of the terror attacks in San
Bernardino fight to recover from their wounds, and the day
before authorities revealed that at least one of the two Muslims who
perpetrated the terror attack had pledged allegiance to ISIS, the Washington Post published a long article
featuring the worries of Muslims that they
will experience a “backlash” in America.
“American Muslims say they are living through an intensely
painful moment,” the Post sonorously informs its readers before adding
that Muslims “feel growing anti-Muslim sentiment” due to recent terror attacks
in Paris and California.
“Muslims said they are bracing for an even more toxic
climate in which Americans are increasingly suspicious of Muslims,” the paper
insisted in its December 3 piece.
The paper goes on to scold America for how it views Muslims.
Muslims say that Americans, like many in Europe, often do
not draw a distinction between radical Islamist militants, such as those
associated with the Islamic State and al-Qaeda, and the religion
of Islam and its followers who have no ties to extremism.
The article goes on to quote a “human rights lawyer” named
Arsalan Iftikhar who complains, “When a Muslim American commits a murder, their
religion is brought front and center. With anyone else, [it’s] a crazy, kooky
loner.”
Neither the paper nor Mr. Iftikhar noted that when Muslims
murder, they invariably claim to be doing it in the name of their God, whereas
few if any of those other killers mention religion as a motivating factor.
Then the Post gets to blaming Republican presidential
candidates for this “backlash.”
“Many Muslims,” the Post wrote, “said fear of Islam
is being fueled by the heated rhetoric of Republican presidential candidates,
particularly businessman Donald Trump, who has called for surveillance of some
mosques and requiring Muslims to register with the government.”
“Islamophobia is the accepted form of racism in America,”
human rights attorney Iftikhar proclaimed.
The paper then quotes members of the Council on American
Islamic Relations as to this “climate” of fear and cites a Pew poll that shows
that more Americans than ever feel that Islam is a religion of violence. The
piece also quotes a series of other Muslim Americans voicing their fears of a
“backlash.”
The article comes on the heels of an appearance at a
gathering of Muslims by Obama’s U.S. Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, who
pledged to prosecute
anyone voicing anti-Muslim sentiment.
But one thing the Post piece did not seem much
interested in is the fact that FBI statistics don’t provide much evidence that
anti-Muslim hate crimes are a major problem in the U.S.A.
Evidence for real anti-Muslim violence in the U.S. seems to
be incredibly slim. According to the
FBI’s hate crime statistics, only 13.7 percent of hate crimes were
perpetrated against Muslims. On the other hand, fully 60.3 percent were
committed against Jews. So, in truth, “hate crimes” against Muslims
seem far and few between in the U.S.A., at least according to the FBI.

community center
in Lower Manhattan. The majority of the center was
set aside for the general public to promote interfaith
dialogue. Plans for the center included a Muslim prayer space which, due to its location two blocks from the World Trade Center site,[6][7]
has controversially been referred to as the "Ground Zero mosque", though
numerous commentators disputed that characterization.[8][9] As of
August 2014, the owner proposes to build a three-story museum instead of the
original 13-story center.

Jordan's Azraq Syrian refugee
camp stands largely empty
Scalding
temperatures, a lack of electricity and soaring food prices have created harsh
conditions in the desert camp.

ALJAZEERA
Along a 15km stretch of rocky
desert in northern Jordan, in what used to be a camp for displaced Iraqis and
Kuwaitis during the first Gulf War, rows of white metal shelters now make up
the Azraq camp for Syrian
refugees.
Azraq opened in April 2014 with
the capacity to house up to 130,000 refugees. Back then, the Jordanian
government and the United Nations said it would likely become one of the
world's most populous refugee camps - but one year on, it is nearly empty, with
a population of around 18,500. Residents say scalding summer temperatures, a
lack of electricity and soaring food prices have created harsh conditions
inside the desert camp.
