Muslims in the IDF are Druze and Circassians, who are generally viewed by other Muslims as heretics and kuffir.

Realistically, pro-Western Muslims will tend to come from hated minorities within Islam. On the other hand, those hated minorities include not just the Druze and the various bedouin groups, but also some very large groups, such as Sufis and even the Shia. These various minorities are all our natural allies, just as the smaller countries of Europe are our natural allies against the new French-German alignment. Too often on FR I see insulted those we should be trying to win over.

Tell me that the Shi'ite ayatollahs in Iran are our pals. I doubt that, "Steve Eisenberg"!
