LONDON: A month-long celebration of ‘Islamophobia’

Contrary to what the organizers of this event had in mind, the unintended consequence of ‘Islamophobia’Islamoreality Awareness Month likely will be even more anti-Muslim sentiment than ever before. You can put lipstick on a pig but it’s still a muslim.

And they hope schemes like the Islamophobia Awareness Month will highlight these problems and bring about a grassroots change in society.
