...The [CAIR Policy Bulletin] noted that Muslims in the West have been viewed as outsiders and Islam as the "other." The result, according to CAIR, is that the West has put up barriers, "stereotypical assumptions and misguided pronouncements regarding beliefs, attitudes and customs," making integration of Muslims into Western civic and political systems more difficult. The report also claims that anti-Muslim rhetoric permeates American society...

Phobia means fear....
.........the right words would be hate and disgust...but never ever fear.....

Maybe the good folks at CAIR can let us know how the integration of western thought is happening in Islamic culture- no stereotypes etc there I'm sure- *rolls eyes*
There is nothing irrational about my distrust, fear, and downright disgust of the moronic death-cult called islam.
Awww shucks. That's too bad. They complain because of something they have instituted? All they are trying to do is put everyone else on the defensive. Get pro-active and condem what the radicals are doing.
Phobia, as I understand it, means an irrational fear....my fear is far from irrational.
So hear we go - The victimization of Muslims begins. Western society (Are you listening whitey?) needs to understand muslim anger and have compassion for their plight. Hate the sin but love the sinner. You know what? F&*k that. Until Muslims can decide which side they want to be on (destruction and mayhem versus law and democracy) they will get no free passes from me. Earn my respect cause it will never be given because some MSM talking head tells me I am a bad person for distrusting Muslims.
Freedom lovers disdain anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-individual, anti-life collectives. CAIR (Collective Against Individual Rights).
Muslims have shown no interest in integrating. So why are they surprised when they're viewed as outsiders?
There's a business opportunity here. Someone should print "Islamophobe" on a t-shirt.
When you've got imams preaching murder, maiming, and mayhem, then Islam has less in common with religion than it does with organized crime. Other religions teach their believers to be tolerant. Islam teaches that members of other religions are sub-human.
The result, according to CAIR, is that the West has put up barriers, "stereotypical assumptions and misguided pronouncements regarding beliefs, attitudes and customs," making integration of Muslims into Western civic and political systems more difficult.
Not in America!
It's just like the term Japanophobia, which is used to describe an irrational fear of japanese.
Likely effects maybe less the .000001% of the population. The real disease in this world appears to be albophobia but it's rather an unknown term.
Google pages for albophobia = 214
Google pages for Japanophobia = 38,400
Google pages for islamophobia = 1,260,000
Something seems out of place or is an epidemic.
With a guy with a white sheet over is head, and a burning cross in the background.
Exactly. And irrationality is the absence of reason. It is very reasonable to be fearful of people who loathe our very existence.
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
It is not a phobia, their religion dictates that they cannot tolerate non-muslims. Pretty cut and dry.
