Any of these phony "feel good about our allies" stories from the Muslims countries all have the same last sentence:
IN THE FRONT DOOR OUT THE BACK.
I pray that this article is an honest interpretation of what is going on there. If there is any aspect of islam that can redeem it, it is sufism, but that is a mere slice of the mainstream.
In my experience, a moderate muslim is one who is simply letting the extremists do the dirty work.
There's no such thing as an islamic Democracy!!
Yet.
And that experience would be?
Shhh!!! Don't tell them that.
Dealing with "moderate" muslims in New York, Chicago, and Virginia who have no tolerance for Jews and grudging tolerance for Christians and other "infidels". Family persecuted in the Middle East by "moderate" muslims, friends who left Lebanon during the previous civil war there because "moderate" muslims suddenly felt empowered to pull Christians and Jews out of their cars and shoot them on the spot.
Shall I go on?
I do believe that there is a small segment of muslims who want to live peacefully with others. Sadly, they are dead men walking in the Middle East.
Mohammed VI is trying to achieve a delicate balance between thousands of years of Islamic traditionDo they have editors at Der Spiegel?
...where most espouse moderate Islam.
A moderate muslim is one that has run out of ammunition.
