I am a news junkie, and lately I've been hearing a term that I don't recall hearing much before: Islamicist. It seems that this term appeared on the scene a few months ago, across multiple networks, and it seems that it refers to Muslims who believe in implementing Sharia Law and/or advocate a Caliphate and/or resort to violence in the name of their religion.
Is this a new politically correct term that the news networks all decided to use to replace "Muslim Extremist," or am I losing my marbles and this term has been in use for a long time?
Islamicist?

Slopeshoulder. However it turns out, we can only hope that is similar to what you have described.
