Muslims still feeling shunned

By by Ken Stanford
GAINESVILLE - A Gainesville Muslim says America&#39;s war on terrorism is &#34;no longer a war on terrorism, but a war on Islam.&#34; <br> <br> According to a report in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Engy Abdalla, a Gainesville homemaker from Egypt, is one of a number of Georgia Muslims who say they are still being viewed with suspicion - eight months after the September 11 terrorist attacks. <br> <br> Abdalla and others say, for instance, they fear that if they donate to a Muslin cause, the U.S. government may freeze that organization&#39;s assets.<br> <br> &#34;I want to put money in the right place because when you put on a veil, it&#39;s enough for people to think that you&#39;re a terrorist,&#34; Abdalla told the AJC. &#34;It&#39;s no longer a war on terrorism but a war on Islam.&#34;
