As far as I'm concerned western media has no problem being forwardly, candidly and outwardly racist towards Muslims and Arabs more broadly on a consistent basis. The majority of publications have no issue whatsoever with overtly or implicitly stating that actions taken by Arab people are either "terrorism" or adjacent to it, and that there is no perspective from which they are justifiable. There isn't a single thing that these people can do other than graciously licking the boots of the west in direct opposition to their own material interests that will be seen as anything other that terrorism or subversion. The inherent white supremacist nature of liberalism is the backbone of their ability to perpetuate this bullshit, I think.
