Doesn't "Phobia" mean a fear of?
I'm not afraid of muslims, I have a healthy fear of anyone. I just don't want any rag-heads in our country. Is that asking too much, to not want killers in our country?

"Phobia" in a PC context means an aversion that you are not supposed to have, an aversion that only reveals your closeminded, judgmental and extreme conservative viewpoint.

This can best be seen in the wide use of the phrase "homophobia", which does not refer to a real fear of people who practice sodomy, but instead is a pejorative label that is slapped on anyone who dares to make public how repulsive sodomy is to them. It is meant to shame you into silence.

Clearly, the media, having enjoyed some success with "homophobia" is trying for a repeat success with "islamophobia".

Sadly, this indicates that those trying to make the latter word stick are ignorant of the Three Choices that followers of Islam are required by their beliefs to offer to the unbeliever: convert, submit or die.

How can anyone possibly object to being forced to accept Islam at the point of a sword? The last journalists who were asked to do so, happily accepted the offer. There is nothing to fear about accepting the Religion of Peace. Or is there?

Convert, submit or die: choose wisely.
