"The backlash that occurred against Arab Americans following Sept. 11"
What backlash did the arabs in America face after 9/11? Sure, their dirty little secret is out in the open and we are FREE to talk about. Frankly, I'm surprised the arabs did not suffer any real backlash. What, 3 or 4 violent crimes, some slander, but hardly any. If there is another 9/11 type event here in the USA, I hope we as citizens do not hold back our anger.

This is exactly the reason GWB has spewed forth the ridiculous nonsense about Islam as the "High-Jacked religion of peace" hosssheep.
His intention was to keep the peace here on the streets of the US between infidel and Muslim. It worked very, very well. We can be proud that we have shown these people true American forbearance. But I hope the Muslims fortunate enough to live here instead of their flyblown homelands are also smart enough to realize that one more outrage is apt to bring down a terrible wrath upon them, no matter what gentle George Bush says.
