Even if you hated the belief and every one of it's adherents to the point of wishing them dead, that would still not be Islamophobia nor would it make you an Islamophobe.
Phobias are fears, not hatreds!
Oh, I see what you did here... Well, to be honest homophobia is also not an accurate word as well because it usually means hatred (not fear) of homosexuals (even though some people may be afraid of gays).
Still, I am afraid of Islamic terrorism. Sometimes when I'm on a train ride I wonder if it's going to blow. I sometimes mentally conceive my testament/will just in case I die.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
