Addi,

I would suspect a number of Muslims display American flags (as I have seen too) out of fear. It seems to be that American Muslims are scared of random retaliation for the attacks because of their religion (as we have seen). By displaying American flags it might deflect negative attention away from them.

I think that has a lot to do with it for some of these people. Gas stations owned by Muslims in my area seem to have bought and display the most flags....

God Bless,
IGIT
