Nope

There is a difference between people fleeing poor conditions and a bunch of preachers wanting to brainwash them and no the tribes people should not be treated the same a xenophobes .

Nope because they are not remotely the same .

How do you know it was xenophobia ?

Uh......
The definition of xenophobe is a person who hates or fears strangers.
Now - I don't know how that applies on your planet - but on this one - killing anybody who shows up certainly seems to qualify.

They try murder anyone who sets foot on their island.

We await your instruction..
