It’s not Islamophobia to call a jihadist, a jihadist

There is no doubt that such prejudice exists. But there is no doubt, too, that cries of “Islamophobia” are issued to suffocate argument, to deflect or deter analysis of some behaviour that is factually related to Islam. There is no doubt either that some Muslims have acted as terrorists, either singly, or in association with various Islamist groups. To point this out is not a phobia, but a simple respect for reality.

there also have been calls suggesting that any reference to the Islamist terrorist connections of the killer would be a species of Islamophobia. This is pure nonsense and folly.

But there is no doubt, too, that cries of "Islamophobia" are issued to suffocate argument, to deflect or deter analysis of some behaviour that is factually related to Islam." he states further and I also agree that: " There is no doubt either that some Muslims have acted as terrorists, either singly, or in association with various Islamist groups.
