Occidentophobia

Some information from a recent finding on fundamentalism in Western Europe.  It is a timely update on the perverse nature of our societies in the West compared to the Islamic one:

 "the level of phobia against the West among Muslims – for which oddly enough there is no word; one might call it “Occidentophobia” – is much higher still, with 54 per cent believing that the West is out to destroy Islam."

  "as almost half of European Muslims agree that Muslims should return to the roots of Islam, that there is only one interpretation of the Koran, and that the rules laid down in it are more important than secular laws."
