The Relations Between Countries In

Some Westerners […] Have Argued That The West Does Not Have Problems With Islam But Only With Violent Islamist Extremists. Fourteen Hundred Years Of History Demonstrate Otherwise.

Critics Say That America Is A Lie Because Its Reality Falls So Far Short Of Its Ideals. They Are Wrong. America Is Not A Lie; It Is A Disappointment. But It Can Be A Disappointment Only Because It Is Also A Hope.

Nationalism Is A Central Ideology For People Who Are Trying To Establish Their Own States In Which They Can Play A Dominant Role.

Obviously Muslim Societies, Like Societies Elsewhere, Are Becoming Increasingly Urban, Many Are Becoming Industrial, But Since So Many Have Oil And Gas, They Don't Have A Great Impetus.

I Am Doubtful That There Will Be Any Sort Of Real Coherence Of Muslim Societies Into A Single Political System Run By An Elected Or Non-elected Group Of Leaders.
