If you read upthread it was explained the final fall of the Roman Empire could be attributed to treating their refugees like dirt and lying to them. Also, I'm currently in US and I don't feel my way of life is being destroyed by Muslim people. I think anti-Muslim sentiment is more of a negative influence on my life, as I work in academia and have had to deal with co workers and students being unable to continue research due to the immigration ban amongst other things. Also the whole "an Indian engineer was shot and killed by a white man for looking like a Muslim" that occurred recently has put fear into a lot of my peers, a significant chunk of them Indian or Pakistani. It's really kind of made my workplace tense and afraid whenever current events and the current political administration are brought up. Most all major acts of terror in the USA have been by white people. I believe the vast majority have been by whites in the USA. In the last 10 years included. I don't see where you're getting the "major terror attacks" thing. In USA we had a stint where white men were shooting up schools and killing children practically every month. I'm pretty sure white people have committed more acts of mass killing in the USA than Islamic terrorists. Where is the pattern recognition here? Anti-Islamic sentiment has long been regarded as applying to a lot more than Islamic people. Sikhs, Indians, anyone that looks "brown" enough gets the anti-Islamic sentiment. I've even had an anti-Islamic person tell me that there's a rule in the Quran that allows an Islamic person to lie about being Islamic if they feel they are in danger, and therefore you can never trust anyone who looks Islamic, because they could be lying about their belief in Islam. I'm not saying you personally agree with this, but these are also other anti-Islamic sentiments I've discussed with my peers. They seem to trend towards racism.
