Asian my @$$....
More like muslim scum of the universe Arab/Farsi/Turk.
Dont forget this is an article from an English paper. In England the term asian is almost universally meant to indicate a person from the subcontinent, I.e. Paakistani, Indian, Afghani, and so on. It can also mean middle eastern. One thing it doesnt mean is Chinese, Korean, Japanese or Pilippino.
