Muslim revolutionaries prefer democracy Koran

59% of Egypt believes that democracy is better than tyranny, but 80% of Muslims defend punishing adultery with stoning and the death penalty for anyone who leaves Islam. Believe in popular sovereignty does not recognize individual rights is not a Democrat.

The prestigious Pew Research study adds only three countries that either have already begun to suffer seizures or are comparable to those that are suffering right now. Jordan and Pakistan show similar results to those of Egypt, while in Nigeria Muslims who support such human rights violations are a majority just over 50% of the population.

Although no precise data on all the places where riots have occurred, the main exception to this collision between Islam and individual rights could be Tunisia. It is also possible that the population of Bahrain is more tolerant, but remember that it is still an emirate where there is a religious apartheid: Sunni impose their law on the Shiites but are a distinct minority.

The last thirty years have seen it grow exponentially the Islamization of society in much of the Middle East and North Africa. According to the Egyptian government's own statistics cited by New York Times, the number of mosques per capita increased eightfold between 1986 and 2005 across the country.


Olivier Roy, perhaps the best known world expert on political Islam with Gilles Kepel believes that we must distinguish between religious conservatism of the people on the one hand and wish that these values \u200b\u200bbecome the pillars of State for another. According to the article published in Le Monde, the Islamization of society has unleashed a stream individualist who takes confession and practice of each one as something entirely private.

Roy's approach is right to draw the reality that many Muslims reject theocratic regimes that have a direct line to God and broken communications with the people. However, too much to project onto them the privacy of religion that exists in the West: The Egyptian Muslims (85%), Nigeria (82%), Jordanians (76%) and Pakistanis (69%) believe that the influence of Islam in politics is largely positive and leave open the door for the state at the service of certain practices incompatible with human rights.

revolutionary outbursts by rebels who rise up against their tyrants claiming the sovereignty of the people give the impression that they are indeed democratic. The support or at least the silent complicity of most the population in many cases also confirm that first impression. When we kneel with peace signs or catch fire before the security forces or satrap tanks, our doubts will evaporate completely.

However, the role they expect of Islam in its institutions and its defense of punishment as the Quran states show that democracy does not seek, but beheading their dictators and make the most power again. Individual rights, without which the sovereign people licensed to lynch and kill minorities, are removed from the equation along with the emergence of a genuine system of freedoms.

Posts in the street (31): politics as

How to reach the city, overwhelmed by messages that tell you nothing even mislead him? What should be the call to invite attention and devote even for a few minutes to read what you want to convey? The art of advertising is evident in the endless possibilities and instruments to serve the talented design and the phrase achieved to avoid the huge risk of indifference. It is known that the repetition of messages and images that accompany comes to cause disgust, perhaps even rejection, but it is also true that, by dint of its receipt, the individual eventually assume even unconsciously, the existence of an artifact or a prefabricated idea that, ultimately, just making a dent in the behavior to decant his favor, and as contradictory as it may seem, the choice finally made.

How could it be otherwise, the exercise of politics adopts the most sophisticated paradigms semiotic paraphernalia revolves around advertising. could be done, if not already done so, a veritable treatise on the contributions of the political message to the immeasurable wealth of advertising history. Surely you can appreciate the appropriateness of the dominant ideas of the social reality of each moment, to the sensibilities of the time, the desires that guide behavior based on the objectives desired by those to whom they are intended. It is logically so, for nothing more unwise to encourage a climate of suggestions and motivations that do not correspond with what the recipient really wants or needs.

However, it appears that in this day and age specific posts should be subject to the impact of the expression that comes to the city as a testimony of a subjective attitude of a streamlined reflection. Encourage government project through the passion he feels for something leads to simplify the content around a word that says it all, trying to cause her emotional reaction to which no one may be uncomfortable, although not commit to anything.

time passions live underground, that political discourse is to endorse without knowing very well how the "passion" simply as such, and symbolized in the figure of the all-encompassing heart, can identify with what, in essence, must be a way of doing politics faithful to the principles of good governance of public with all that that implies. I have no doubt that this is the objective of who are applying to renew his mandate as mayor of the city of Soria, and who, from what I know, enjoys high public value. But this does not preclude thinking about what is meant by "slogans" politicians in these times of confusion between appearance and reality.

Soria Walking yesterday, I came across this ad. Caught my attention and that's why I commented in this section to interpret the "messages" that appear on the street.
