Since an Islamic state is by definition, totalitarian, why not just call those people Muslims? There's no need to add the suffix. Fascism is a very specific ideology that stands for particular things. There has been no synthesis of fascist and Islamic ideals. Hence, there is no such thing as Islamofascism.

Whether a group exists is extremely important. If a patient has a certain disease, you call it by its name. You don't just make up a new disease that doesn't exist. To do so is intellectually dishonest, adds confusion, and delays identifying and correcting the problem.
