I rather someone in a turban or veil was sitting nearby; it makes for more interesting scenery. The middle east is an interesting place. Some good archeology can and is being done there, and therefore put on the History Channel.
Now not trusting extremism in any form is not prejudice; it is self defense. I have no prejudices, and am not afraid to say it with the risk of sounding like a perfectionist.
Prejudice:
opinion formed beforehand: a preformed opinion, usually an unfavorable one, based on insufficient knowledge, irrational feelings, or inaccurate stereotypes
irrational dislike of somebody: an unfounded hatred, fear, or mistrust of a person or group, especially one of a particular religion, ethnicity, nationality, sexual preference, or social status
