INVOLVEMENT OF MUSLIM EXTREMISM IN AMERICA
In recent times, American media has evolved the violence or extremism portrayal of
Muslim people and that considers the unethical presentation of Muslim values and signifies
the major concern of the natives in America. The chosen plot was the single mass attack in
Orlando, Florida on June 12, 2016, which was the deadliest and most dangerous attack after
9/11 (Sites.duke.edu, 2016). Americans Muslims are the spearhead sufferer of those
incidents.
All Muslim community is not characterized by the anti-democratic tendencies or
violent motive, however, the legal or the government policies are going against them. The
American data also shows that due to those controversies Muslims are less in government
places, legal place and they are not considered as the citizens of their native land. On that
stated incident 49 people were killed including a shooter and with that 53 people were injured
(Sites.duke.edu, 2016). The utmost belief and their state of trust are being diminished by
those attacks over them and the involvement of Muslims extremism in between them.
The incidents those generated the grievance over the Muslims are innumerable as
there is numerous attack that Muslim organizations had done in last few decades. In case of
11th September 2001, the event like bombing the World Trade Centre was the ignition of
lightning in between Muslims and Americans. Continuous five fire attack in 2016 accounted
more death and since 9/11 more than 240,000 Americans were being literally murdered by
the terrorists. Another controversial incident, that took place in 2014, when US military
officials were involved in a battle against ISIS (Contexts.org, 2010). The ISIS has made a
deal that they would tell their location and release nine Lebanese soldiers if the safe
transportation has been made in between Syria-Iraq border. So these are the most
controversial cases that have made an effective impact on the citizens of America they are not
in this kind of sate to believe a single Muslim people (Zech & Kelly, 2015).

The terrorist groups are mainly organized designated by the superior power of Jihad
(Coolsaet, 2016). They think that this power will save them and give them a lethal strength
that effects all over the world and the world become Muslim community and they are the
Superior power of the world. Some of the big terrorist organizations like Al-Qaeda, Haqqani
Network, ISIS, and ISIL all these groups are insurgents the clandestine terrorist network
throughout the globe (Contexts.org, 2010).
From the latest activity in the US, Ahmed ABDI Godane is the leader of All-Shabaab
was killed in US airstrike. Nasir al Wuhasyshi is the leader of Al Qaeda and Sirajudin
Haqqani is the leader of Haqqani group is the profound highlighted personality of terrorist
activity (Zech & Kelly, 2015).
The argumentative conversation can be made that rate of the first half when the
terrorist activities are more is being quite considerable in the form of government
intervention and the active line of police and legal prohibition against the terrorism. The
extremism of violence is not in hand of the government however, they can prepare their level
best to mitigate this kind of situations (Coolsaet, 2016).
Therefore the summary can be concluded that scale of violence will be mitigated to
emphasize the effective work culture and by making increase motivational work in the
country. Muslims are neglected and under-concerned for this reason and that has created
some problem for that. So the differentiation is needed as well as the justification for the
work.
