The U.S. has launched a witch hunt “reminiscent of the Spanish Inquisition” to “demonize” Muslims. “While President Obama may uphold freedom of religion, the U.S. inquisitorial social order has institutionalized patterns of discrimination, prejudice and xenophobia directed against Muslims,” writes Professor Michel Chossudovsky of the Centre for Research on Globalization, Montreal.
“Ethnic profiling applies to travel, the job market, access to education and societal services and more generally to social status and mobility,” he writes in his new book, “Towards a World War III Scenario: The Dangers of Nuclear War” (Global Research).
“What is now unfolding is a generalized processes of demonization of an entire population group. Muslims are… considered a potential threat to national security. The threat is said to be ‘much closer to home’, ‘within your neighbourhood’. In other words what is unfolding is an all-out witch-hunt reminiscent of the Spanish Inquisition,” Chossudovsky writes.
