A Probe into America’s “Islamophobia”

The series of anti-Muslim rhetoric of President Trump and his team has reflected the deep-seated "Islamophobia" in American society, which is mainly manifested as: first, openly deny and be hostile to Islam, and link it with extremism;second, publicly discriminate against, isolate and even attack Muslims;third, worry about and reject the spread of Islamic culture and the demographic growth of Muslims;and fourth, discriminate against and attack Islamic countries and Muslim groups diplomatically. "Islamophobia" is not a new phenomenon in America, whose emergence and popularity owe to complex reasons, including historical, institutional and direct ones. The spread of "Islamophobia" has exerted negative impacts on domestic unity, social stability and foreign policy making of the US. Therefore, other countries of the world should learn a lesson from it, and adopt multiple measures simultaneously to prevent and neutralize "Islamophobia".
