You make a point that’s pretty obvious, but is appreciated only by the Islamists. The Left , AND the Islamists will always point to this as “democracy”, and who can deny a “democratic movement”? The call what they have a “Charter”, and that is a counterfeit “magic word”, even though their Charter is nothing like our Constitution or that of any
“democracy” in the West. Then again, our own Constitution is under seige from Obama and the Left, and we may be living through a historic phase where the whole idea and meaning of a “Constitution” and what “constitutes” it, is permanently under assault and aggressive challenge.
These are Muslims, and they should not be interested in any form of Infidel Governance, like democracies, or republics or Christian ideas of what is right and wrong.
We should realize this, and not expect Muslims to act like us.
If there are enough Infidels, or Infidel collaborators ,or minority Shias in a country, you might have a different result.-Tom
