본문내용

“Axis of Evil” is a term which former president George W. Bush initially used when he designated some Arab countries as public enemies of United States, after 9/11, 2001. Not only U.S. citizens but also all the people around the world were shocked about the terrible carnage by Taliban, Islamist militant and political group, and this gruesome image of the terrorists are being stamped on people’s memories as “Muslims equal evil.” Even though it was executed by a minor extremist party, from that moment, having open hostilities and outright discrimination of Muslims were justified and it aggravated the stereotypes of the Arab which had been already entrenched in the society. To the west, Arabs has long been considered as threatening figures even before 9/11 or the gulf war. Like Dr. Shaheen mentioned in his documentary film Real Bad Arabs, Muslims have been shown as savage tribes in mass media from the early Hollywood movies. The virtues of Arab culture were hidden and only the violent aspect was emphasized. Arab men have been typecast as barbaric and cruel villains in the movies or ridiculed at their slyness and stupidities by contrasting with righteous American heroes.
