Sure. We have a situation where

1) the "West" is constantly at war with Islamists and their discontents in fights almost exclusively begun by them (I believe they are religion-motivated, based on my research, but that's another debate)

2) we have students on visas in the US who are supporting a widely acknowledged foreign terrorist organization, which goes against the letter of the law (which applies more to green-card holders than citizens)

3) people are assuming the worst about things they literally do not know about here

4) I am simply calling this out and getting downvoted as a result
