It's not hypocritical to focus more of your attention on the bigger problem - which I would argue is Islam. You can disagree on that if you want, but not everything is of equal good or bad. And the way to deal with it is not to add more bigotry (ban all muslims/baiting the population for votes), but to accept the issues we are facing and try to deal with them rationally.
To be fair if non threatening white people were as directly affected by a war they have a history of being just as douchey about it.
