Yes, but it's much easier for you to blend in, because your skin colour doesn't make you as immediately noticeable. I don't put the blame on Westerners in general or in whole, I mainly put blame on the American government as they funded the mujahideen of which Osama bin Laden would spawn out of, they are allied with and provide weaponry to Saudi Arabia, the state which has probably spread Islamism more than any other, they supported the Islamization of Pakistan to combat the Soviet Union, and also fund many militias that end up having extreme beliefs. They also scapegoat minorities in order to deflect from their own wrongdoings, and Muslims end up being one of the main targets.

Well ignoring the fact that the skin colour of middle eastern people would also be white and it`s more the beards/clothes that make them noticable (2 entirely optional things by the way) it`s well worth mentioning that stereotypes exist for a reason...

Yes, but that doesn't mean that societal circumstances shouldn't be taken into account. For example, there are many white supremacists who put down blacks as lazy and praise Asians as being hard-working, completely ignoring the circumstances, like how many blacks were slaves and even afterwards were treated poorly which obviously facilitated poverty, while there was a blanket ban on Asians from immigrating for a while, so the Asians that did come were already well off, which meant that they generally did not become poor. I'm saying this is the same. We don't look at the circumstances surrounding the situation thoroughly enough.
