    To clarify:

    “Islamophobia” should refer to an irrational fear of Islam, or Muslims. And there IS such a thing.

    But the charge is usually leveled at the wrong people for the wrong reasons.

    Thanks for saving me the trouble of typing. It probably would have taken me more words and not been as clear. I’m pretty sure that there were conservatives who were irrationally afraid of Muslims and prejudicially blaming all Muslims for the actions of a few before there were liberals who were using this special label for them. And yes, some of them have overused the label and overprotected people who did not deserve it.
