It is true that groups like ISIS and AQ seek to specifically predate Muslim atrocity victims, find that 1 in 100,000 who’ll adopt terrorism. — PolitiTweet.org

Another implication is that Muslims should be protected from atrocities not bc they’re human, but bc otherwise they’ll turn into terrorists. — PolitiTweet.org
Max Fisher @Max_Fisher
The implication is that, lurking behind the eyes of every Muslim, there’s a terrorist just waiting to be awoken. — PolitiTweet.org

You do see incidents of non-Muslim atrocity victims retaliating against “other side's” civilians. But rarely same “radicalization” concerns. — PolitiTweet.org

Think about Sudan. Not nearly so many warnings that pre-partition Southerners, who are Christian/Animist, would “radicalize.” — PolitiTweet.org

@JeffreyASachs No need! You were right to correct me. — PolitiTweet.org

We often warn of “radicalization” when Muslim civilians are victimized, but rarely if ever do we apply the same concerns to non-Muslims. — PolitiTweet.org
