The cock-eyed perspective of Islamophobia

It’s an interesting phenomenon–also troubling–that social & political problems in Arab countries are attributed to Islam & not the feudal monarchs or military juntas that rule them. Why aren’t US wars, the former military juntas in Latin America, the repressive regimes in Mexico, Central America, & elsewhere attributed to Christianity? Why isn’t the EU allowing thousands of refugees to drown in the Mediterranean also attributed to Christian theology? In fact, why isn’t all of neoliberal capitalism attributed to Christianity?
