An Islamist is defined as follows:
S: (n) Islamist (a scholar who knowledgeable in Islamic studies)
S: (n) Islamist (an orthodox Muslim)

It is only Post-September 11 that the term has been used by politicians to denote the ideology you describe above. This again shows that all Muslims are now being equated with terrorism. It is manifest that deep down every non-muslim member of civilisation is now scared of muslims...thanks to all the negative media hype. In fact, I don't blame them...If I heard all that on the media I would be frightend too. I would even go further and dissociate myself from every muslim person I knew. Everyone now believes that a muslim is the person who wears the headscarf, oppresses women and bombs him/herself up in the name of Allah. Little do they know is that not every muslim wears a headscarf. And even little do they know is that there is in fact positive discrimination in Islam for women. They also don't have any clue about who Allah is. Allah is the Arabic word for God. The same God all monotheistic religions such as Christianity, Judaism and Islam worships. So whats the big deal? Could it be self-interest? Could it be politics? I don't know!
Islamofascist is the word which describes the fanatic Muslim who would use terror.
