I am not afraid of Muslims or Arabs or any other group when brought down to an individual level. However, to not be concerned and vigilant when the problem is clearly coming from a particular segment of society seems equally irrational.

One of the 9-11 bombers, Richard Reed and the London Bombers all come from the same mosque. Hardly a coincidence.

The Wahabi sect of Islam is extremely violent in its views, apparently.

Many mosques are preaching anti-western messages.

The main stream of the Muslim community has not come out strongly against such teachers or teachings.

How often have you heard of a mosque firing their imam for preaching hate and violence?

How often have you heard of muslims turning in other muslims because they were building bombs in their basement?

Until the Muslim community becomes more active in policing their own, people will continue to be concerned about them. And not irrationally so.

Most muslims are not jihadists. However, they have a responsibilty to weed the jihadists out or they will continue to suffer from group suspicion.
