Muslims have certainly committed terrorist attacks and this has led to a certain amount of Islamaphobia however is this the main cause of it? How much does the media contribute to the creating an Islamaphobic society. Link is a piece using parts of the Daily Show - quite funny.

'Islamophobia' is a fast and loose term. It can mean anything to anyone and around here it's typically taken to refer to those uppity people asking too many questions or taking a critical view of the teachings of Islam or behavior of some Muslims.
