If you don't blame Islam, blame Asians
Reader comment on item: Denying Islam's Role in Terror: Explaining the Denial
Submitted by Gamaliel (United States), Mar 15, 2013 at 18:39
One of the many reasons not blaming Islam is bad is that you then wind up blaming someone else like Asians or mentally ill etc.. The hate that would have been directed toward Muslim terrorists is redirected to innocent non-Muslim Asians.
