To invoke the Holocaust
in discussing the present situation of American Muslims is to carelessly trivialize the real thing. And it's a good way to ensure another Holocaust, because once it's been trivialized enough no one will fear it anymore.
Sorry, guys, it ain't a new Holocaust every time a screener looks twice at a guy who looks just like the last 19 guys to commit mass murder in America. And if not all Islamist terrorists look like bin Laden, does it follow that we should ignore those who do?
We can either accept extra scrutiny now, or be prepared for the mass hysteria which will follow another 9-11. And let's not forget that there are plenty of Muslims among the many Americans who haven't died in terror attacks since 9-11.
