I don't really think there is that much raw Islamophobia, people are justifiably wary about who is loyal and who is not so loyal to our country now that they're hidden behind a bland exterior that may very well be the same as millions of harmless souls. I mean, if aliens took human form, who would you watch carefully? What if you heard that they only took the human forms of tall blonde women? Then you would be wary of all tall blonde women. It works the same way here. It's not the fault of every individual Muslim, except in the vague general sense that Islam has fallen behind in its responsibility to distance itself from terrorism (there is always that yes but attitude, like yes we condemn terrorism, but not when we're killing Jews, Americans, Christians, conservatives, or soldiers).
