| #1 overall, this will damage the Islamist movement. When the Gazan's voted in Hamas, they got what they asked for. It wasn't pretty. Beirut will be yet another example for the rest of the Muslim world to see what happens when they get what they ask for. It can only frighten sense into them. Just like the communist movement, it all sounds so pretty on paper. But as their wishes are granted, the sane "believers" are forced to reevaluate. I think Beriut will have an even greater impact once the city degenerates under Islamist thug-like control. It will not have an immediate effect, but in the long term it will erode the support for their movement. |
