Muslim world in flux |
2016-09-15 |
[DAWN] As Moslems worldwide have just performed another Haj and are now celebrating Eidul Azha, it is perhaps an opportune moment to reflect on the current state of that abstract construct -- the ’Moslem world’. While, indeed, the world as a whole is facing myriad challenges to the global order -- political, financial, security etc -- these problems are magnified manifold in most Moslem-majority states, Pakistain included. While external players have had a role in destabilising Moslem states and regions, arguably, the greatest challenge is internal, most notably from decrepit and repressive political systems that stifle dissent, as well as from holy warrior movements that thrive in suffocating environments and use Islamic imagery to promote a thoroughly savage agenda. |

#7 Umm, rjs and Kof T, that is what I was alluding to in #2. The "bloody flux" was a big problem in the British Navy circa 1800. |

#4 You cannot reform the word of god and that is literally how they see the Koran. Anyone waiting for a reformation is fooling themselves. |

#2 The invasion of Afghanistan to oust the hard-line Afghan Taliban has failed to produce a working state 15 years after the event. Any idea why that ouster was necessary? C'mon take a guess you can do it. Oh BTW the Muslim world IS Flux. |

#1 Dear Muslims, don't worry about reforming yourselves --- we've seen through you, and we're going to reform you. |
