"Criticizing regimes for not detecting terrorist activities and failing to prevent such actions is one aspect. Conditions in terrorist-prone areas are complex and should be taken into consideration while making generalizations and judgements. Wrong activities are considered wrong, and they should be criticized, irrespective of the identities associated with them. If identities are associated with such activities, in such cases, asserting and facing the issues should be a priority rather than escaping from them, so that stereotypes, if any, could be debunked. Highlighting one aspect of a situation or reality in order to hide another is immoral and unethical. The process of involving in arguments and counter-arguments, if not performed critically, augments the existing stereotypes and acts as adding more fuel to the fire as the associated prejudices get reinforced."
We should avoid this.
