Islamophobia is not technically racism because Islam is a religion, not a race. However, it involves prejudice and discrimination against Muslims based on their religious beliefs. So, while it's not racism in the traditional sense, it's still a form of bigotry that deserves to be called out and challenged.
Although I'm sure many Muslims would take offense to it, I don't believe it is racist. My reasoning behind it is that any phobia is a mental disorder, some minor, some severe, either way it is uncontrolable for the person posessing it. (This is with the assumption they actually do have it, and are not using it as an excuse to be insulting).

Islamophobia, and the market.
Islamophobia can be directly traced to the early nineteenth century to the 1918 biography of the Islam prophet Mohammad. Also it has been used more recently after the 911 attacks.
It depends on how one uses the term "white racist". To some, white racist is someone who is white and they are also racist. To others, however, a white racist is someone who is racist exclusively towards white people.
Islamophobia can stem from a range of factors including ignorance, misinterpretation of Islamic beliefs and practices, political conflicts involving Muslim-majority countries, and media stereotyping. Additionally, fear, prejudice, and negative experiences with individuals who identify as Muslim can contribute to the development of Islamophobic attitudes.

No. It would only be racist if you were to hate the racists' race in return.
Oh honey, no. Anti-Semitism is discrimination against Jewish people, while Islamophobia is discrimination against Muslims. They may both be forms of religious bigotry, but they are not the same. It's like comparing apples and oranges - they're both fruits, but they sure ain't identical.
The plural form for the noun racist is racists.The word racist is also an adjective.
