Don’t go there—any asshole can go on Twitter and claim to be anything. It’s a big mistake to let every clown fool you.

Even if she’s Middle Eastern—and she appears to be assuming that’s actually her photo (could be a 50-year old white guy)—it doesn’t mean she’s Muslim. There are plenty of Christians in the Middle East that dislike Muslims (in Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Lebanon, and places like Armenia, etc.).

I’ve heard some of the worst hate towards Muslims comes from ME Christians. It’s all so fucked up because those people probably get harassment from the same bigots who think they’re Muslims. This actually I recall did happen once to some Coptic Christians who came to protest the “Ground Zero Mosque.” And you really have to look at the former Yugoslavia. Muslim Bosnians outside their religion are really no different from Orthodox Serbs and Catholic Croatians. They’re a little different than my peeps the Slovenes but that’s only because Slovenes don’t speak Serbo-Croatian.
