You might think all of those Islamist attacks on civilians in America are backlash against “perceived aggression” (wars) in the middle east but college professors and presidential mentoring bigoted preachers will tell that is just chickens coming home to ROOST, Little Eichmans and all...

I’m curious how few degrees of separation she is from CAIR officials.

We had a copy of the Ford & Allen book when I was growing up (’60s).
It was such laughable propaganda even a 10 year old could see it was stupid.

"The unfounded hatred of Islam or stigmatization"
She lost me right there. If she is so stupid she can't see the foundation for fear, distrust, stigmatization, and even hatred for Islam ... then she's too stupid to debate. For pity's stake, even muslims are fearful of other muslims who are more muslim than they are. Cults are like that.

Her pic makes me want to rip off her glasses and whatever Muslim head covering she has on Judging from her UT profile pic, she doesn't wear glasses and goes uncovered.

From her profile:
Her research focuses on social determinants of health and health disparities with a particular attention to communities in or from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). She examines the relationships between Islamophobia, gender, and family demography and population health outcomes in the United States and MENA. Her work often focuses on how social and demographic processes affect women’s health over the life course. Her research interests include migration and health, family and community contexts of immigrant households, intergenerational relationships, women’s sexual and reproductive health, and evaluation of global and domestic public health programs and policies.
She needs to go on a field trip to Raqqa.

When I was 16, a Texas police officer pulled me over and said "it's people like you that are ruining this country. Go back to your country." People who speed, I thought? Girls who are late for figure skating practice? I wasn't sure what he meant. What country was I supposed to go to? I was born and raised in Austin. Then, it dawned on me. It was a month after 9/11, and he meant Muslims. Or, far more likely, she is just lying about the entire "incident."

..she is just lying about the entire "incident."That is my opinion also.
We have seen too many phony incidents of so-called "islamophobic attacks" perpetrated by muslims trying to garner sympathy.
They lie, that's what muslims do.

You can always shut these people down with one simple phrase:
Muslims don't believe in the Natural Rights of Man

All disagreements with the prevailing ideology should be treated as "health issues." Institutions should be developed to treat these health issues residentially. Alexander Solzhenytsin described how these institutions should work in his The First Circle.

Muslim Americans have been harassed on college campuses What a load. Moslems are treated like gods on college campii, and every accommodation imaginable is made for them.

It’s not Islamophobia that is the issue. It’s Islamoblindness and there is an epidemic of it. Islamoblindness is the inability to see the truth about islam’s attempt at world conquest and the core belief that lying about terrorism will make it not happen to themselves.
To: Dutch Boy
Well said!
The majority of thinking Americans suffer from islamonausea.
