Sarmaniac, I guess English is a second language for you. Phobic doesn't mean fear. It is irrational fear, with uncontrolled physiological reactions.

It is quite sensible to fear Islamic Jihad - they do actually hack off heads [Stan Shaw and many others], kill children en masse [Beslan], you have perhaps heard of the Twin Towers and Alan Beaven flight93memorialsfb.com

Personally, I don't fear them. The number of people they kill is akin to lightning. If I was wandering around their HQ I'd feel some trepidation but they aren't really coming to Kansas. At airports and on aircraft I'm far more concerned about the authorities who are theoretically looking after me but I find give me a lot of trouble.

Maybe English is not your second language and there's another explanation [less flattering to you].
