Original Note:
The idea that Muslims, including IS members, have long beards and engage in suicidal attacks is a long running degrading stereotype that is not factual. Facial hair varies on regions, and extremists use of suicide attacks depends on the group. https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-20877090 https://www.thenationalnews.com/what-s-in-a-beard-false-stereotypes-in-a-post-9-11-age-1.590858 https://ctc.westpoint.edu/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Exploding-Stereotypes-1.pdf https://www.jstor.org/stable/26351566
