No westie throughout the course of history has ever had one correct idea about orientals whatsoever, from the time of the roman empire until modern day.
Romans thought easterners were effeminate for their use of perfume, washing with soap and sleeping under mosquito nets, of course this was what they fooled themselves into thinking because it was convenient for them to rile up the sentiment people in the middle eastern are weak degenerate barbarians so that they could, as self proclaimed spreaders of democracy and civilization, go to war with these eastern kings to steal all their wealth and get control over their territory for taxation. That's antiquity done with.
In the middle ages western christian theologians spread the idea that Muslims are pagan idol worshipers so crusades against them and enslaving them is justice.
Of course this is a pure invention since Islam is an abrahamic religion where you may find many, MANY verses from the bible existing in the coran word for word and let's not also forget that Jesus Christ is a holy figure in Islam too and included in their worship and Muslims unironically believe that he is the messiah that'll save us in the end times from the antichrist, and when you think about it Islam is like Arian Christianity with an extra prophet.
Westerners Lied however to justify going on crusades against muslims for control of the silk road. That's the middle ages fine with.
Now we go to the modern era, which includes the colonial era and modern day where middle easterns are framed internationally by western media as pure evil savage uncivilized barbarian terrorists who are unworthy of life and they should all be killed and eradicated with extreme prejudice without any regard for international law, human rights, morality, decency. To steal and appropriate their natural resources, mainly fossil fuels.
