The only difference I have with this report is the use of the word “Islamophobia.” I’m still not fond of this neologism, because it implies that fear is the main driving force — and while there’s an element of fear to it, I think at the bottom it’s really just good old-fashioned human being-style bigotry and prejudice, often fueled by long ethnic and tribal histories and of course, by religion.

I prefer “anti-Muslim” instead of “Islamophobic,” because the bigots are actually prejudiced against the people, not primarily afraid of the religion.
