it's like no one still has anything good to say about them.and people still generally avoid them.

No one really had anything good to say about them before 9/11.

What do you expect when your so called political/religious leaders have so consistently marked themselves out as the enemy. It says much for toleration that we have taken so much criticism from them without a very violent reaction. It is a pity that certain people can not accept it coming the other way

Hi....
Were i live, in Yorkshire/England.... we have many arabs.
I am NOT racist in any way, but i believe 'they' are!
In the last few years, i have been robbed of my change in arab shops, many many times!
My grandfather used to say: 'Never trust an Arab!'
I used to tell him off, for saying such a racist statement, although i am starting to believe the same now!!
Another arab shop owner, makes it quite clear, that your change, will be dropped into your hand, so as not to touch you!
Have my permit only parking space, taken up with the arab next door's car, who has 'no' right to park there, feel powerless to say anything, because fear being called a racist!
Have had to sit beeping my car horn, along with many others, on numerous occasions, because we wait for arabs to stop their conversation, from their car windows, stopped in the middle of the road!
Have sat waiting patiently in my car, for the oncoming vehicle to pass, on a narrow road, to have 'no' gesture of a thankyou from its arab driver, on many occasions!
This happened 'again' only the other day, seeing me cursing the other driver, for not even giving me a wave or friendly gesture, for letting him through....
A group of arabs, in another car, followed me home, giving me threatening looks!!
Seems as though we are 'not' allowed to complain about their ignorant behaviour!!?
Have had dirty looks from arabic people, on many many occasions, when i have 'smiled' at them!
Have had to put up with totally ignorant arab taxi drivers, who dont answer you, after you try to make conversation, or just answer with a yes or no, which makes 'yourself' feel that 'you' are not worth having a conversation with!
Seeing 'Sadam Rules' graffiti, on walls near to arabic streets!!
The young arabs nearly 'all' carry knives, ive seen one young arab, of the age of 14yrs or so, carrying a gun!
The young arabs would stab you to death, for insulting islam, then they go and drink alchohol and take drugs!!
The young arabs drive like drugged up madmen, have never any car insurance, then sit blatantly laughing at you, because your car, isnt as good as theirs!!
It is SO obvious that they look after their own kind and think of 'us', any other nationality/creed second!!
Calling each other 'brother' and making you wait, while they have a conversation, with the arab guy, behind the counter, in an arab shop!
They sit there, calling this country, while wearing designer clothes and 'bling', claiming social security, while working in some relatives shop!
It makes you believe, theyre here to 'use' us and our great system, then when they want to shout, they do the loudest, using that democratic system, to do so!!
It seems to me that what is actually wrong, is that the belief the arabs hold, about 'anyone' who is 'not' a muslim, being an 'infidel', is actually thought correct, by these arabs, in MY country, the country my grandfather fought for and my family has lived in for generation after generation!!!
Either that or, they are 'the' most ignorant set of people on the planet!!
Do you honestly think, theyre not calling us, 'white trash/scum' and 'Infidel' in arabic, behind our back, or even in front of us, because we cannot understand them!?
Is there any wonder, these arabs are 'not' liked??
And NO.... I am certainly NOT a racist, i have friends of many races/creeds, who also 'agree' with me!!
