Sam Harris, "New Atheists", and Islamophobia

Through Twitter and Facebook, I've found a man by the name of Glenn Greenwald, as well as others mentioned in his article, have said that Sam Harris, as well as other new Atheists to some degree, have a preoccupation with singling out and criticizing Islam as a particularly dangerous religion. What do you chaps think? I actually agree with Sam Harris. Christians, I feel, used to be very dangerous when they had the power to be, but have thankfully lost that power. Nowadays I honestly don't see any other religion as being equally dangerous.

Glenn Greenwald's article, which contains links to other articles that back up his position.
