How Democracy Becaome Halal
From the NYT, a counter view to the one I mentioned in my previous posting. This man, Reul Marc Gerecht, is a Middle East specialist with a new book coming out: The Wave: Man, God, and the Ballot Box in the Middle East. He argues that freedom as the ability to vote is becoming a widespread notion in the Middle East, alongside "freedom to worship God" and "national freedom from European imperialism."
Worth a read.
