Pipes is another right-wing Islamophobe

Taking a verse from the homosexual faction, if you disagree with them you are an Islamophobe? Do these people understand the language well enough to know that "phobe" comes from "phobia" - which is a fear? I don't "fear" Islam; I just think that the radical Islamists are a danger to America and our way of life!

It's worth pointing out that a phobia is an *irrational* fear.

There's nothing irrational about being concerned with a religion that demands you submit to it's nasty Shari'a code of religious law, which would overthrow our current law, or face death.

I think ALL of Islam is a danger to America and our way of life. It is an evil cult!

No, only if you have a irrational fear of Muslims beyond the natural revulsion for those who commit and further terrorist attacks wrapped in religious fervor. Hatred or contempt for Islamics would be Islamisophia, as hatred for homosexuals, as distinct from a panicked fear of their presence, is homomisophia, rather than homophobia, the choice term for their supporting propagandists and fellow travellers.

Muslims have the tight to question America's policy toward Israel, and Hamas might reasonably be described as "Arab zionism " But no zionist organization ever presented a threat to the United States as Hamas does, because it patches into the hysteria of Islamism.
