Islamophobia an integral part of Islam's history

Posted by bk on April 23, 2010

They say it’s irrational. They say it’s born of ignorance. They say it’s everything it isn’t. It’s Islamophobia!

“Islamophobia has existed since the time of inception of Islam”
—1st OIC Observatory Report on Islamophobia –May 2007-March 2008

In short, the word “Islamophobia” is a ruse — also permitted in Islam under the doctrine of taqiyya [16] — meant to paralyze all discussion concerning Muslim doctrine; and it has been successful: the United Nations [17] has already presided over a conference titled “Confronting Islamophobia” and a Council of Europe summit [18] condemned “Islamophobia.” Moreover, the influential Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) regularly lambasts the specter of Islamophobia, calling it the “worst form of terrorism [19],” and publishing two reports on the phenomenon.

Yet, in a classic twist of irony, the opening assertion of the OIC’s first report [20] — “Islamophobia has existed since the time of inception of Islam” — contradicts its entire argument, for it begs the following question: How can something, in this case “unfounded fear of and hostility towards Islam” — to use CAIR’s definition of Islamophobia — be a constant aspect of Islam’s fourteen-hundred year history, and yet still be regarded as “unfounded”?

Read the rest from the great Victor Davis Hanson.

Odd how the desire not to be subject to the barbarity of Islam is shared by all cultures unfortunate enough to have to deal with another Muslim crusade?
