Cute. All the world’s a frame-up! Islamophobia is just one elaborabe conpiracy theory, but the notion that Islam might be an anti-kafir conspiracy is hogwash. (If one is true, then why not also the other?) Maybe, when you actually get down to considering the Islamic texts that relentlessly divide the world into believers and kufr, and look at the often violent historical effects of that, you will have to consider that there is no great conspiracy on either side, but just the sad reality that our frames (which allow us to look at the world) sometimes fail to do their job in helping us control both our and their great and all-too-human capacity for resentful violence.
