I found the title intriguing. I’m a Muslim and I don’t understand why I, an American, should have to bear the brunt of American wrath for actions of mad people. Ignorance takes people into savage territories, be it that of a zealot or trumpians.
No, I don’t make allowances for shortsightedness and bigotry. Having said that, I vociferously condemn violence of terrorists of all ilk. They’ve never had the benefit of education and clean drinking water. What I find mystifying is close-mindedness of so-called educated westerners.

I enjoyed the article! Well-articulated, Sergey.
