Mostly because of Iran and the way some wealthy countries support terrorism. The entire Arab population gets painted with that brush which is not fair.

@Subsumedpat Iranians are Persians , not Arabs .

@AthrillatheHunt Those were two separate clauses in my sentence and it still applies, Arabs supported terror against the US the twin towers were taken down by Saudi's and there are a number of Arabs who support terrorists efforts against the US and others. Separately is Iran inhabited by Persians and the worlds largest state sponsor of terrorism. This is simply the answer to the question, Iran and certain members of the Arab nations paint the middle east as supporters of terror be it correct or not.

@Subsumedpat the question was not about Persians . Saudi Arabia hates them, as do many Arabs .

@AthrillatheHunt No the question was about Americans and Europeans and why they think what they think. First place not all Americans and Europeans hate Arabs just like not all Arabs are terrorists. The answer is as I said people from the west don't like Arabs because of terrorism supported by Iran and by some Arabs, that Persians are not Arabs is not relevant to how they feel as they lump them all together in one basket so to speak.

@Subsumedpat only some people incorrectly lump Persians and Arabs together. I stand by my Persians are not Arabs claim .
