You can keep updated on hate crimes at the link below. They listnews stories from around the world (about hate/biased crimes against
Muslims, or people mistaken for Muslims/Arabs).
You can also check out hatewatch.org.
I'm horrified... I spent the weekend with my dad (who's in hospital)
in Parma, Ohio... and I just read that a man there drove his car into
the mosque. It's especially scary when these crimes happen close to
home. The mosque here in Columbus, Ohio was closed friday because of
the number of death threats received. How sad.
