A cautionary tale for American Muslims

The United States has a sad history of racism and intolerance that may be repeated if we are not vigilant.
Remember, the so-called New World was colonized for two purposes: for gold and to convert the indigenous peoples to Christianity.The Spanish conquerors made every effort to obliterate all traces of the previous cultures and religions.
As the new United States expanded westward, native peoples were displaced and even slaughtered. One tribe was hunted like animals until none remained.Surviing native American Indians had their children taken from them and put in missionary schools to convert them to Christianity and eliminate their native habits, language, and religion.
When the Chinese laborers came for the Gold Rush and to build the trans-continental railway, they were eventually expelled for fear of the "yellow peril."
The United States was one of the last countries to officially abolish slavery and indentured servitude, though the latter still exists in sweat shops and aur pair girls. 
The Mormons were persecuted and had to flee to the west and settle in Utah.
At the outbreak of World War II Japanese-Americans were interred in concentration camps.
Today thousands of so-called illegal immigrants are being reported and held in camps pending their expulson.
Now, since the 9/11 attack by fifteen Muslims, chiefly from Saudi Arabia, he country is at war against Muslim extremists, using drones flying over countries we are not at war with to assassinate alleged terrorists. Each so-called "collateral damage" of innocents adds to the recruitment of others seeking revenge.
Given that history, it is essential that all American Muslims speak out against terrorism and identify potential bombers. The risk is that besides being spied upon by FBI informants, we might see an American repeat of the Nazi Nurenberg Laws.
