nairiporterAfrica: 'Outright Hatred' Towards Muslims, Risen to 'Epidemic Proportions'
https://allafrica.com/stories/202303130397.html
Islamophobia is a 'fear, prejudice and hatred of Muslims that leads to provocation, hostility and intolerance by means of threatening, harassment, abuse, incitement and intimidation of Muslims and non-Muslims, both in the online and offline world.'
Consequently, suspicion, discrimination and 'outright hatred' towards Muslims have risen to "epidemic proportions."
These are not the words of this convinced secular journalist, but those of the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief.
