2.   Orientalism operates is a threating and demonized figure of the Islamic Terrorist that is emphasized by jounlists and Hollywood. Said argue that there is lot more going on there that is misunderstood  or not seen by the peoples of the west.

3.   Orientalism  is the creates an image outside of history  of something  that is placid and still and  eternal.Which is simply contradicted by the fact of history.

 4.Islam is a useful foreign demon to turn attention away from the inequities and problems in our society. As a result the human side of the Islamic and especially Arabic world, are rarely to be found and the net result is this vacancy on the one hand and these easy, almost automatic image of terror and violence.

 5. Orientalism operates is a threating and demonized figure of the Islamic Terrorist that is emphasized by jounlists and Hollywood. Said argue that there is lot more going on there that is misunderstood  or not seen by the peoples of the west.
