Ok so my official input on the matter at hand here, all opinion of course because goodness knows i'm not staff and don't get to decide:
If you're deeming Islamic (Arabic, etc) music as offensive just because of the language it's in; that is inherent racism.
No one song should be stopped simply for the language it is in.
Being in Islamic, Arabic, German, Russian, Japanese, English, etc, doesn't by ANY means make the song offensive. As well if that's "racist/islamaphobic" just for being in the language, let's annex every and any song with words in it period.
On the point of it being an "isis theme", it's still a song regardless of the fact. We can't look past that, nor empower a rebel terrorist group to dictate what we do and don't enjoy.
Nazi's picked up the swastika, but it still stands for peace/luck/wealth in the Hindu religion.
I'm not telling all the mini-marts around me to take their swastikas down; because in a matter of context (which is what this is really all about) it's no offensive.
The best way I can put this is, is a question.
I could start up a Nazi brigade right now and make my theme song Easy Street. If I build a following and hit mainstream media, is that now offensive to all non-Caucasians and no longer a viable queue?
