Islamophilia is a controversial neologism employed by some politicians, sociologists and journalists to describe unwavering and uncritical admiration of the values of Islam, generally associated with an admiration of Islamic civilization. Islamophilia, like its antonym Islamophobia, is not included in renomated dictionaries.

However, many proponents of the term argue that it has existed historically as well, in instances like the wave of orientalism that followed Disraeli's premiership and his support for the Ottoman Caliphate of the time.

Others have also drawn upon purported historical instances of Islamophilia. Karl Binswanger remarked on the "dogmatic Islamophilia" of many orientalists. Jacques Ellul complained in 1983 that "in France it is no longer acceptable to criticise Islam or the Arab countries." As early as 1968, Maxime Rodinson had written, "An historian like Norman Daniel has gone so far as to number among the conceptions permeated with medievalism or imperialism, any criticisms of the Prophet’s moral attitudes and to accuse of like tendencies any exposition of Islam and its characteristics by means of the normal mechanisms of human history. Understanding has given way to apologetics pure and simple."

In The Guardian, the British publicist Julie Burchill opposes 'Islamophobia' and 'Islamophilia', asserting that Islamophilia is born from a certain culpability of its fellow-compatriots when they evoke the exactions of people of Muslim origin.[1]

On several weblogs and discussion platforms, as well in printed media the word is used in a likewise manner by publicists like Robert Spencer[2] and Daniel Pipes.

The Indian-born British writer, lecturer and broadcaster, Kenan Malik discusses Islamophilia in an essay titled Islamophobia and Islamophilia, in which he states "Whatever Islamophobia may exist [in the UK] is matched by what can only be called institutionalised Islamophilia."[3]

Publicist Koenraad Elst described the British establishment as 'Islamophilic', saying "In the United Kingdom Islamophilia runs amok. The July 7 bombings, which killed 55 people, seem to have reinforced the taboo on criticism of Islam."[4]

The word "Islamophilia" was used in a cover article of Dutch opinion magazine Elsevier about the Qur'an.

Journalist Gerry van der List used the word "Islamophile" in the quote "the Islamophile theologe Karen Armstrong".

The word is frequently used in conjunction to Islamophobia in order to express the desire to stay in between those two extremes.

Julie Burchill claims "mindless Islampohilia" is "considerably more dangerous" than Islamophobia owing to what she claims has led to a whitewashing of Islamic History and its use as a way of stifling debate.[1][9]

Robert Spencer and Daniel Pipes blame Islamophilia as the cause for failure to address problems within the Islamic world or with Islamic communities.

Mansoor Hekmat cites comparable concerns, while he acknowledges that Islamophilic viewpoints of non-Muslims can be of benefit for Muslim immigrants.[10]

What is the difference between persecuting a Jew and persecuting a Muslim?

Absolutely nothing. Both are Semitic peoples. Both are minorities in Australian society. I hope you're proud of your persecution and being anti-Semitic.

What is Islamophobia except the persecution of people who are Muslim, BO?

You have decided that you don't like Muslims for no other reason it appears than that they worship a different God to the one you've grown up with. Your continued posting of images and memes which are insulting to many ordinary, everyday, law-abiding Australian Muslims means you are persecuting them for their religious beliefs. I don't see you posting similar images or memes for Christians/Jews/Buddhists/Hindus/etc. so please don't try and say you hold all religions in equal contempt. It won't wash. You appear to hate Muslims because they are different. Simples really. You appear to think that all Muslims are Islamist extremists. Silly really. However commonsense doesn't appear to work in your world very well.

And you, Brian, were posting Islamophilic images. You, Brian, are an Islamophile.

Islamophilia is a psychiatric disorder

I will make allowances for this but cease and desist with your lying accusations.
