What is an "Islamist" exactly?
Wikipedia has an excellent article on this. I'm using the term to
denote fundamentalists who support things like terrorism and
destroying the Jews.
That seems like a very narrow meaning for this word.
It is pretty narrow. In general discourse, "Islamist" refers to a
rather sophisticated political ideology. But I'm using the term
provisionally.
