Why not? I live in Los Angeles, and I dont care how many pools, green lawns and palm trees you see ... it's a desert

And living in a desert makes people crazy

You do comprehend that Iran is Persian right? And to call them Arab is a grave insult (and pretty stupid too).

Islamophobia is a neologism that refers to prejudice or discrimination against Islam or Muslims.[1] The term itself dates back to the 1980s,[2] but came into common usage after the September 11, 2001 attacks.[3] In 1997, the British Runnymede Trust defined Islamophobia as the "dread or hatred of Islam and therefore, to the fear and dislike of all Muslims," stating that it also refers to the practice of discriminating against Muslims by excluding them from the economic, social, and public life of the nation. It includes the perception that Islam has no values in common with other cultures, is inferior to the West and is a violent political ideology rather than a religion.[4] Professor Anne Sophie Roald writes that steps were taken toward official acceptance of the term in January 2001 at the "Stockholm International Forum on Combating Intolerance", where Islamophobia was recognized as a form of intolerance alongside Xenophobia and Antisemitism.[5]

My feelings on Israel are that it's an illegal country and should be returned to the Palestinians. That being said...


Why does Rebecca Proudhon hate Muslims and Black People?

Against Israel you mean?

Not an illusion, but then again, not a one-sided problem. I know numbers hurt your head because it's easier to just have a preconception and then yell about it without having any, but here's some statistics for you regarding the last 8 years in israel and palestine.
