Z, > It's a stupid propagandistic term for the "enemy" made up by Daniel Pipes several years ago. It didn't catch on until a few months ago. By conflating Islam with fascism, it makes Islam look just that much more evil.

There is nothing stupid about the term. "Propaganda" is just a label given by the "nuanced" who refuse to call modern day terrorism for what it really is.

There are a LOT of similarities between Islamic fundamentalism and fascism. Much, much more than the so-called "similarities" between Bush and Hitler. But don't take my word for it:

Cheney and Coulter types are the real neo-fascists. Bush too maybe. If he ever thinks about it. Cheney has basically stated that he and Bush are above any laws. Coulter has glorified a return to McCArthyism and one-party rule where only the ruling party has civil liberties. Both of those views are fascism.

Islamic Jihadists aren't fascists at all. They're the opposite, though just as bad in different ways.
