Because the American government wants to scare the people of America in order to control them and have us voluntarily give up our civil rights. They have to make up an imaginary fear so that people are afraid and think it is for terrorism and not to spy on everyday Americans. Muslims unfortunately got made the target. It was not right but the current administration has not done anything correctly. Please do not take it personally. It is not about Muslims. It is about the government trying to scare Americans. More Americans have been terrorized by other Americans than other people all combined. Why do we have all the Jails, murders and gangs. We have a huge problem here and it is mostly people who have been her for a long time or people in gangs. I have never heard of a group of Muslims coming here and forming a street gang. The ones I have known have been in school or working hard at a job or running a business. The Govt is very convincing on a great deal of lies. Many people know they are lies but many people think they are telling the truth. Sorry, but he was not elected he stole the election. Peace to you.

Because moderate Muslims are not vocal enough.
neither they speak openly againts the fanatics and make situation more confusing.
I have heard many Muslim scholars condemning terrorists, 'but' they also in a way say and try to explain the actions of terrorists. They typically say 'but the actions of terrorists are because of.....'
If the moderate Muslims oppose terrorism unconditioanly, rather than blaming US, India everytime, i think it will change all this.
Intrestingly, most Muslim terrorists are attacking democracies, they dont attack the other Muslim countries where there are dictators and no freedom.With a predominant Muslim country like Pakistan and many Arab and African countries, Muslims are figthing amonst themself. That gives more bad picture.
So, since media belongs and prospored more in the 'free' countries, they automatically get a freehand at things. But media also covers the voice of moderate Muslims in these countries.I dont feel media is baised.
So the more vocal moderate Muslims will become, the better image they will have.

Muhammad, sorry but you're going to have to restructure your question. Muslims being targeted or blamed for what...undoing what wrong and what people with what designs?
I am not commenting on your English...I spent a few years in the middle-east and your English beats the heck out of my Arabic.
A little clarification please.
Assalamu Alaikum

My main worry today is that have Muslims become the new Jews, of this century?
And that is a scary thought to have as Muslims are not a docile tribe like the Jews so they won’t be taking in all the insidious insults and blames lightly or quietly walk into the gas chambers as most people in west and even east would want them to, but instead they are a warrior tribe, who will fight back any suppression, evidences of which are all around us, to see and to learn.
Let’s break this cycle of disrespect by beginning to respect our differences and celebrate the humanity we so desperately seek to protect, as humanity means all of us, not just a part of us, it is only when we stop thinking of the world as us vs. them, we start splitting it into two half and start our little war or righteousness and start burning bridges instead of building them anew, afresh
The Muslim civilization has played a crucial role in the evolutionary history of our planet they have constantly been the link between the western and the eastern divide, though sadly now both have come together to suppress the Middle.
But it won’t be easy to suppress such a rich and vast civilization, it is ¼ of humanity we are talking about, so we all have to step back and rethink our future strategies as this will certainly lead to our collective annihilation.
This is not the Soviet Union we once so hated, and hoped and prayed for it to go away and one day it did, but it disintegrated from within and was nothing of our doing, so we better be careful as our cold war has just turned hot with Muslims.
When we need start looking this ¼ th and a growing part of humanity as a part of us, we would offering them the same respect, dignity and opportunities as we expect for ourselves and our fellow brethren. And if we as humans can’t learn to live in peace on this small planet in the Cosmos than God help us.
Today, we have quick lessons to learn and tough remedies to consume; one of them being that hate and suppression can never eliminate any kind of extremism on either side of the great divide or in the middle.
And as always peace is the way and love is the answer, not hate.
One final question, why do we all looking for an external enemy always, on whom we can easily blame all our ills, why do we always look for easy targets of our anger and hate and scapegoats when all we need to do is to take responsibility of our actions as that is what creates all the events in our lives. That is how we can all end the blame game and the cycle, of hate, of disrespect, violence and terrorism and counter-terrorism.

Muslims are rightly blamed for acts committed by Muslims in the name of your god. The 'moderate Muslims' never stand up and have protests against the terrorists, you just attack us and defend them passively when we point out the truth: most conflicts on Earth today are Muslims who can not get along with their neighbors.
Now stop the taqiyya.

Lets put it this way and I'll type slow so maybe you can understand. If Swedish extremists flew planes into the twin towers and bombed trains in London then the Swede's would be targeted and blamed for undoings and wrongs...

Because they keep doing wrong things. Look at the current actions by the Iranian government ot re-write history to say the Holocaust never happened. The Muslim world - its leaders - and its followers have shown themselves to be quite worthy of the distain of the world community. It is not just the terrorist attacks against Christians and Jews, but look at the attacks perpetuated against Hindu's as well this year.

Because people see the big one,
and since most terrorist are muslims, so most people think that al muslims are terrorist, while if they think clearly... they know it's wrong.
It's just like if a father being prison, people will think that the son will be the same, while mostly it wrong and mostly people who think like that makes that kid became just like his father.
they just want someone to blame,
they just need someone to blame,
because they can't take the one who's responsible.

The superpowers(?) do not find a fu....clue about who do all these atrocities on the earth. The easy way they find is try to eliminate the true way of life (Islam).
It is the superpowers'(?) incapacity to find the culprits.
Come on superpowers....pinpoint only the offenders...do not attack the innocent civilians....it is a cowardice act to attack the civilians...go and get hold of the offenders....every muslim will support you.
