I read an article recently that there are actually more anti-semetic attacks on jews in the US than islamophobic attacks in the US, but I know some news papers (the guardian) try to make it seem like Muslims are suffering much racism since 9/11 in the US,. SO i found it interesting that actually there are still more anti-jew attacks in the US than anti-muslim attacks.even after 9/11.

People attack what they don't understand, I guess.
