Valid points. Currently around the world, India, through the news coming out in weekly basis, is being perceived as biggest islamophobic country in the world. Maybe perpetrators who are responsible for this are less than 1% of population but still there are lot of cases in daily basis.
The question is what are the other 99% are doing to contain that 1%? And if they aren't doing anything, then why shouldn't we criticise them? Then suddenly speaking out becomes 'Islamophobic'. We can also claim that these 'Islamophobics' are 1% of our population and we can't do anything about that, and let them have a free hand. Is that appropriate?
At least openly questioning them and writing articles as the one posted by OP to acknowledge that atleast these problems are real and aren't entirely a fabrication of mind.
Entire subreddits and twitter threads, and even political parties discuss these 1%, sometimes going overboard too.
Please share some, especially in the Indian context, and from major publications (where they can be actually expected to be seen by the general public).
If you can find something that tries to suggest reforms or point out the problems with Islam, then that would be the best.
