Islamophobia Definition (edited with video)

By Bernie

Islamophobia is a rational fear of Islam, Muslims or Islamic culture. Islamophobics rightly base their fear on the proven fact that Islam is directly opposed to equality, tolerance, democracy and almost every concept held dear in civilized societies.

Islamophobics realize that most Muslims are not a direct danger to western civilization because most Muslims do not live in western countries, yet.
Islamophobia is not a form of racism since Islamophobics even have a rational fear of Muslims of their own race and ethnic identity. Islamophobics who are of Indian descent fear Muslims who are of the exact same race. There are even millions of Arab Islamophobics who despise, hate, and fear Muslim Arabs and rightly so. Racism is no component of Islamophobia.
Islamophobia is not a form of xenophobia since Islamophobics even have a rational fear of Muslims born in their home country.
Islamophobia has nothing to do with racism, bigotry, or unjustified intolerance because those prejudices are usually based on a set of negative assumptions of an entire group to the detriment of members of that group. Islamophobia is not based on negative assumptions, rather on news reports and words and deeds of Muslims.

Some people have made the silly assertion that the rise of Islamophobia has contributed to the negative views about Islam and Muslims in the West. This is sheer nonsense since most Americans never even bothered formulating an opinion about Muslims one way or another until Muslims started coming into our country in great numbers. It is in fact, how Muslims act that has contributed to the rise of Islamophobia.

Was it the rise of Naziphobia that contributed to the negative views about Nazism and Nazis in the last century or was it the actions of Nazis that contributed to the rise of Naziphobia?
Some morons have likened modern Islamophobia with the antisemitism of the 1930s ¹; however, Islamophobia is based on the truth and on a real book, the Quran, showing that Muslims in fact do want the world to be dominated by Islam, while the antisemitism in the 1930s was based on lies and a fabricated book, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, purporting to show that Jews want to control the world.
Then there are some who say that the rise in Islamophobia has led to increased attacks against Muslims. This is another Muslim lie. ² Muslims are one of the least likely of groups to be singled out for hate crimes.

As I wrote in my article The difference between antisemitism and Islamophobia: "So while anti-Semites rely on lies to justify their fear and loathing of Jews, Islamophobes like myself rely on the truth to justify their fear and loathing of Islam.."
The term Islamophobia most often appears in discourse when a Muslim or a multi-cultural weasel cannot supply a cogent response to an accusation that Islam is a primitive, violent, savage, brutal, barbaric ideology bent on world domination, subjugation, and conversion. This is how it usually appears in print:

Q: How do you explain that in the Shariah the punishment for abandoning Islam is death - isn't that barbaric?
A: You sir, are Islamophobic.
Q: I just read that a suicide bomber killed at least 21 Christian worshipers and wounded at least 97 others in Egypt yesterday. ³
A: You sir, are Islamophobic.
That is the only use for the term - it is simply a way to avoid saying, "Uh, ah, mmm, uh."
