Muslim groups throughout the United States issued statements of sorrow about Tuesday's attacks, but community leaders simultaneously braced themselves for a fresh round of anti-Islamic feeling similar to the one which saw widespread incidents of threats and violence following initial suspicions, subsequently disproved, that Islamic militants were responsible for the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing in which 168 people died.

Mosques and Islamic centres in several cities were placed under round-the-clock police guard within hours of the attacks in New York and Washington, as cultural centres and other groups reported a series of threats and anti-Muslim incidents...."


Yes i remember many politicians rushing to appear in Mosques so that no one would blame North American Muslims. But most of the muslims I saw mostly talked about how it was the wests fault.
