Indonesia, Turkey, Egypt, Pakistan- they all have in common that their source of power and authority is their miltaries. And the militaries of all of these Muslim countries are dominated by a generals corps. And the generals corps of all of these militaries have been successfully turned by America to serve American interests.



Now, I argue that Algeria is potentially a MORE important country for ISLAM than Egypt. Algeria has all the natural resources ( oil, gas, water, arable land, sea access, large desert expanses) , natural defenses ( Atlas mountains) , and a large enough population (diverse multi ethnic Muslim population of 35 million) to be a truly liberated Islamic state. It has engineers, oil, scientists, its population knows Islam and knows arabic for the most part.
It is NOT compromised by a lack of natural resources and unfavorable geo-strategic factors as Egypt is.


Expecting Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey, Indonesia to gradually become an Islamic state ignores the reality that DEMOCRACY does NOT lead to Islam. Algeria had elections in 1992 which were supposed to turn the government over to Islamic movement, FIS. America and France rejected, saying that they do NOT want "one man, one vote, one time". Therefore, they activated the Algerian military led by their generals corps to nullify the elections by any means necessary.

Nothing has changed in terms of the West hold over Muslim lands. The WEST continues to hold the power and hold the final veto via DEMOCRACY.

What IS changing is the integrity of Muslims and Islamic groups. They are now more willing to compromise with Taghut.
That is NOT acceptable. It is spiritual corruption of Muslims.
