Who or what do YOU THINK is to blame for the mass increase
of bullying aimed at Muslim students?
Since September 11th 2001, when
terrorists who claimed to be
Muslim flew plains into the Twin
Towers in New York and killed
thousands, there has been a
BIG RISE in the bullying of
Muslim students in the UK along
with ISLAMOPHOBIA in
general.
Therefore many Muslim parents
and organisations have tried to
encourage schools to tackle the
problem of bullying and support
organisations which help victims
of bullying.
