Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week

This is Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week, created by right wingnut David Horowitz. You Tube has a great post on it with a discussion about the definition of Fascism and whether or not Islamo-Fascism is an oxymoron or not. I contend that it is. Some believe that all Islamists want to have the Sharia Law as the rule of government, ergo I-F exists. My contention is that only actual, organized governments like Bushco can be fascist. My intended response to one of those fanatic 'every Muslim is a bad Muslim' posters was too long for the website. Instead of cutting it to mean nothing, I tranferred it here.

From my understanding - Shia want the religious state and Sunni prefer secular. Iran is Shia, governed by the Ayatollah, not the 'president'. The majority of Iraqi's are Shia. Hussein was Sunni, and despite being despicable, wanted nothing to do with Al Qaida and it's religious war.
Georgie boy thought "they were all Muslims" when told about the Shia and Sunni sects. Somewhere in the past 700 years since the split, Sunnis seem to have gotten over religious governance. Additionally, Muslims, like Christians and Buddhists and other sects can be found in most countries.

The way Bushco uses Islamo-fascists to stir up fear is
1. a fascist activity by Bushco, and
2. not within the meaning of fascism as it should be defined.

Fascism is a process by a government with the hidden (or not so much hidden) intention of lead to a dictatorship. Islamists may want that eventually, but they are not the government of many countries. I am sure there is some term that could be used for the desire for Islam to be the world's religious rule of law. Lets see...
I've got it!
