Sisi also called for countering “extremist” views and erroneous religious beliefs, adding that the Islamic value of tolerance must be promoted.
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi again called on Sunday for a “religious revolution” against extremism within the Islamic world in an interview on a religious public radio station.
Speaking at Al-Azhar University, one of the world’s top center for Sunni learning, Sisi said, “I am addressing the religious scholars and clerics. We must take a long, hard look at the current situation.”
“It is inconceivable that the ideology we sanctify should make our entire nation a source of concern, danger, killing, and destruction all over the world,” he said.
“It has reached the point that [this ideology] is hostile to the entire world. Is it conceivable that 1.6 billion [Muslims] would kill the world’s population of seven billion, so that they could live [on their own]? This is inconceivable,” said Sisi according to MEM
Sisi is an incredibly brave man. Many want to kill him just for suggesting changing Islam.
A reformation or revolution in thought is necessary.
I don’t think it can happen.
Too much of Mad Mo’s instructions would have to be excised from their book.
Islam does have a provision for living with non-muslims.
It involves mandatory payment of a special “jizya” tax on the part only of the “dhimmi” who are the subjugated ones.
A restrospective analysis could be that the Western World has been in this relationship based on an escalated price of oil, since late 1973. Only the development of enhanced recovery of oil through fracking (developed by the “dhimmi”) has now changed this relationship.
Sisi said, “I am addressing the religious scholars and clerics. We must take a long, hard look at the current situation.”

Sisi knows what he is talking about and has his finger right on the problem - the Islamic clerics. As long as they continue to teach the hardcore Sunni Wahhabi version of Islam then ISIS and the like are going to have no problem recruiting young men hungry for those 72 virgins.
What Sisi should do is to start rounding up the Egyptian clerics who disagree with his view and let them contemplate their navesl behind bars while they consider moderating their ideas about how Islamic beliefs should be taught.
The alternative is to ultimately stand by and watch the Jihadist Community run out of virgins as their young men die foolishly on the battlefield. The West is dormant right know but even we have our limits. And the Protector of the Jihadists will be gone on less than 2 years.
