Banks, R. R.
(2003). Racial profiling and antiterrorism efforts. Cornell L. Rev., 89, 1201.
According to Banks (2003) the crimes
against entire communities for the actions of a few are focused upon and the
use of the racial profiling in the antiterrorism efforts where the Muslims are
put under a higher level of scrutiny is the main topic of discussion of the
article. The use of the racial profiling for the antiterrorism actions of the
government and their use of heavy handed tactics against specific communities
influencing racial hate crimes and instigation of violence against the specific
communities is discussed in details and how the racial profiling used to stop
terrorism is affecting the mentality of the populace towards the Islamic
communities are the main topic of the discussion.

Affairs; WashingtonXX.8 (Nov 30, 2001): 66.(Islam in America: U.S. Under
Attack; Implications for Muslims Everywhere)
Muqtedar khan in his contribution to
the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs stated the obvious impact on the
American mentality towards the Middle Eastern people and the resident Muslims
of the USA that has been changing with the rise of the Islamic terrorism. He
focused on the escalating situation in the Middle East and the impact of said
incidents on the psyche of average American citizen to synonymise Muslim or the
religion of Islam with terrorism or Jihad. He in this report explained the
mentality towards the American Muslim residents and the gradual change in the
tolerance towards the Islam and the followers escalating into outright
hostility and segregation. The hate crimes against the Muslims are on the rise
and the innocent bystanders are being ostracised for the actions of a few so
called Jihadists. Therefore, the impact of the Islamic terrorism and middle
eastern resistance of the American interference is discussed in detail with the
repercussions falling on the US resident Muslim communities.

The current article explores that the
Indonesian election is focused on this report
and the insistence of the Indonesian presidential candidate is based on the
anti corruption law being the most important step for any government to take
for any country in the future. The candidate focuses on the global issues and
Indonesia’s high Muslim population and the US role in defining the global view
of the candidate’s opinion is focused on as his military training in USA had a
huge impact on his world view. Therefore, the corruption that is holding back
the country from developing and a world power is being addressed in this report
where the economic discrepancies are promised by the candidate as one of the
first things to be enforces in his agenda.

Popular Culture)
In this book the Islamic terrorism
and its impact on the ostracising of the Muslim population of the US are being
discussed as the terrorist activities are resulting in a racial hate and discrimination
on Muslims who are essentially awarded the same rights as any other community
in the states. Therefore, the illegal action enforced on the Muslim population
is affecting their rights as citizens of the United States. The violation of
the civil rights of the Muslims living in the US And hate crimes and
discrimination against the whole community is discussed as how the Muslims are
being subjected to hate crimes and discrimination on all parts of the society.
Therefore the American culture which is unique because of the immigrant
population of USA who outnumber the natives tenfold is being changes to a
partiality which has not been part of their culture since conception.
Kondrasuk, J. N.
(2005). A US view of terrorism. Disaster Prevention and Management: An
International Journal, 14(5), 644-656.
This report is based on the crimes
against the Muslim population in the US and the rise in racial and hate crimes
against Muslim communities. The internal conflict and the long term effect of
the difference of views are based on the change in perception and social exclusion
that goes against the American principle and can be disastrous for a country
where most of the population are immigrants. Therefore, the imminent disaster
that can rise from the hate crimes and the start of an internal conflict with
the potential to splinter the country and affect its political power is the
main topic of discussion. This threat and the imminent threat of terrorist
activities against civilians that is escalating the concern of the citizens who
need to reassure about their safety and that of their community are addressed.
This part of the report considers the possible ways to manage the situation and
handle it so the effect of it is minimal for the citizens is the discussion
that is being addressed in the report.
Onwudiwe, I.
(2005). Defining terrorism, racial profiling and the demonisation of Arabs and
Muslims in the USA. Safer Communities, 4(2), 4-11.
In this journal article, the focus of
the author lies in not the cause of the racial hate crimes rising in the USA
but their prevention on a community wise basis. The demonization of the Muslims
and the Arabs is a common phenomenon in the US where the blame of the jihadist
attacks are being blamed on the Muslim community and the repercussion is
translated in the victimization of the members of the community even if they
are not responsible for any way for the crimes against humanity that are caused
by terrorists. Especially the Middle Eastern terrorist groups and their attacks
in their frequency and viciousness are the most responsible the rise in anti
Muslim sentiment in the US. Therefore the awareness issues and the vilification
of the Islamic communities is a cause for concern and the racial profiling that
determines the terrorism and threat to humanity by religion and not the acts of
terrorism is a dangerous way to great unrest.

civil liberties. TRIAL, 39(10), 56-61.
In this report, the aftermath of the
9/11 attacks are discussed and the long standing effect on the restrictions on
the Muslim population and the hindrance of their civil rights is discussed in
detail. Just the fact that eh Islamic and Middle Eastern people conducted the
act of terrorism is not reason to vilify an entire community for the crimes of
a few. However, the effect of the restriction on the public sentiment of
vilifying the Islamic communities and their long standing effect on the
perception of the Muslim communities and their treatment of the community that
is influenced by civil rights and how that can affect the country as a whole
and destroy the national solidarity is discussed in the article.
