"Islamophobia is a neologism that refers to prejudice or discrimination against Islam or Muslims. The term itself dates back to the 1980s, but came into common usage after the September 11, 2001 attacks. 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. 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."

    "Islam teaches you PEACE" It's just a saying, not what I see in your dids.

    @MourningMoon: Pfff, what the fuck? You don't even realize how freakin' ridiculous what you're saying is, do you? I'm bloody speechless. Given the Crusades alone, how can a sane person not be the least bit against religion, at least for a moment? Given these current homosexual protests, how can you not be a little mad? Given these terrorists who claim to do it all for Allah, how can one not be a little judgmental, at least at the time of reading about such crap? Religions aren't all innocent. Surely the intent of most are good, but they ARE exploited all the freakin' time. You'd be stupid not to find some of that bloody offensive. Besides, pretty much all religious or spiritual people force their crap onto others at one point or another, even if it be through a simple "God bless" or such remarks. In doing so they're indeed opposed to OUR view of life, even if not with hostile intent.

    People who dedicate even 1 minutes of their lives being against Islam or any other spiritual beliefs should be sorry for themselves. I mean such narrow minds can't fit well into the world we live in now. Everyone is free to think/do whatever he wants, with consideration of his brother in humanity.

    Metal as nonconformist phenomenon is a natural enemy of Islamofascism. Metal has destructive impact on barbarian, nonreflexive thinking.

    Lolwhat? Metal is SATANIC[aka individual] anti-religion music. It makes no sense as christian black metal. There is no any relationship between nor islamophobia, nor islam itself and metal subculture. Besides some related artists are strong anti-religion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPvPUqYaWv0, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQj3Bb1CaU8. Other artists such as Muslimgause are very "peaceful" mujahids xD

    Music is haram? What nonsense! Where did the Spaniards get their influence from in their music for example? Just check that history out and be amazed at how Islamic people regard highly of music. Just one example of many. Most people that come here and post dont really understand Islam obviously.

    TAGHUT have many tags that are related to racism and offensive language against other cultures, if you look at their lastfm page. This doesnt exactly argument against this groups philosophy, but quite contrary this is one of main the reasons why its important to work against the abuse of freedom of speech(like in music) to counter the spread of hatred-spewing people and their dangerous(and banned) ideologies or sects. People need to become more aware that this is happening and should be stopped.
