So the Satanic Verses, er, I mean Koran, was the earliest form of fascism? To continue the semantics argument, it seems that Islamofascism is "a movement" that "stands for a centralized autocratic government" (the caliphate) "headed by a dictatorial leader" (ayatollah or mullahs), "severe economic and social regimentation" (dhimmitude)," and forcible suppression of opposition" (the constant references in the text itself to the killing of infidels/non-believers). I am still calling it Islamofascism.

There is no such thing as "Islamofascism." That's a word made up by the British Commie Christopher Hitchens because he labels everyone and everything he dislikes as "fascist," as Commies typically do.

To take one small matter, fascism was marked by extreme nationalism and generally white racism. Islamic extremism contains neither element--the Islamists want to destroy all nations and unite the world under a caliphate and they are, obviously, not white racists.
