Asian people living in Britain are experiencing a severe backlash in the aftermath of the August airline terror arrests.
by CHRIS BRADY


Despite the fact that the vast majority of British Asian citizens speak out and condemn acts of terrorism, those very people are now being singled out and victimised due to a combination of fear and racial stereotyping.
Asian Leader has uncovered four disturbing stories. In the first, two Asian students were removed from a plane after a passenger revolt (Page 3) when the young men were heard speaking in Arabic. In the capital, a family has claimed they were stopped from going on the London Eye after security also heard them speaking Arabic.
In two other cases (pages 4 and 5) a mother and children were left stranded in Disneyland after her husband was sent home by US immigration officials and in Manchester a Muslim airline captain was hauled off a flight.
Only 11 people from the 24 arrested have been charged in connection with the alleged plot to blow up several transatlantic airliners in Britain. There are over two million Asians living in Britain, who cannot be persecuted for the acts of a minority.
