I might have an easier time believing you if you didn't spend half your time blaming the West for the problems in the Middle East.

That blame is the most important in thing in understanding islamophobia.

Maybe most of the bad conditions the Middle East is going through, is due to western support of chaos and dictators. It's not me who said that; but the telegraph.co.uk :

And the Guardian:

The foreign policy of the west butchered the Middle East, it didn't just kill it. Experts have warned for decades that the constant intervention of the U.S and western governments is creating massive shock wave, look at the immigration crisis: every Arab I know wants to run away from the Middle East, if you are arrested you are dead, the west lied when it promised Iraqies independence and peace.

It all makes sense: we were Ottomans once. We are a defeated nation, and the west was the winner. Why should the general direction of the movement of western secular politics be in the favor of "ex enemies" ? Most of the islamophobia of today is a continuation of what happened in WW1. Personally; Muslims are a second class humans today, and they will never be accepted until they change. For me, the oppression makes me more Muslim. But it makes some others terrorists.

Here is my point. Maybe it's not Islam? Even in the U.S there are psychos who kill without a reason. Maybe the American invasions, that all experts warned from, is the cause?


Of course that is limited to government. The normal everyday westerner is a human just like me, some are dicks, some are nice, some are crazy, some are very sane...etc.
