However, Turkey seems to be the main exception. Algeria might also qualify, although I'm not sure. It is notable, though, that in both countries the Islamic religious parties won control through elections in the past few years and the army immediately stepped in with a military coup to oust them.
There's something about Islam that wants to create a theocracy instead of a democracy, and that would be reason enough for us to oppose it. However, it gets worse, since they seem to want to create theocracies that would like to kill us.

Don't you remember that hillarious line from the movie "Airplane" when the trolling airline captain asked the innocent little boy (after he asked him if he liked to hang around men's locker rooms), "Peter, have you ever wanted to visit a Turkish Prison?"?
