Stereotypical something-stan terrorists?

I was reading 24's page, and I noticed that there was no trope for generic Middle-Eastern terrorists, so I thought it was just a fluke. But I looked around and couldn't find the page via Google, or by looking at other pages like Iron Man, Traitor, The Siege, conspiracy theories, or post-9/11 terrorism movies. Is there a reason this doesn't exist? It seems like a fairly common trope where films just get ambiguously brown actors in turbans.

So does it exist? If not, I guess it's YKTTW time.
