Yeesh, “democracy” and representational government don’t work everywhere, especially in countries that would vote for Islamic radicals.
Instead of pushing for democracy, we should be pushing for the best government possible, no matter what form it’s in. In much of the Islamic world, the best we can hope for is a relatively secular strong-man or king.
Agreed. And, that king or secular strong-man shouldn't be encouraging islam, instead have programs & introduce initiatives, all around & at all levels, that educate & move people away from islamic this & that, be it gradually.
