More "cohesive, democratic and organised than say.... the Liberal Party".... Say again????
Personally I don't think Islam is a beacon of freedom, human rights or progressive thinking. Organised? Yep, but what are the aims of that organisation?
Outside of the Middle East there are working democracies with a majority a Muslim majority population eg. Indonesia, Senegal, Tunisia and Turkey. Mali could be described as a democracy but it is a chaotic country that is on the "do not travel" list of many many countries, including Australia. (Nb. it's noted that Muslims fleeing the Middle East try to get to Australia and not stay in Indonesia despite it being a functioning democracy..... read into that what you will).
The Israeli's left Gaza for it to have an election and form a democracy. After the election the winners "disappeared" the losing opposition.
Pakistan is a large Islamist country right. Doe you think it has a functioning, true and fair democracy? Ask Imran Khan for an answer to that one.
In the Middle East, where Albo now imports his Muslim voters? Israel is described as a democracy as is Iraq. Iran pretends to be a democracy but is run in a theocratic manner.
"According to The Economist Group's Democracy Index 2023 study, Israel is the only democratic country in the region, qualified as a "flawed democracy" (#30 worldwide). According to the V-Dem Democracy indices, the Middle Eastern and North African countries with the highest scores in 2024 are Israel, Tunisia and Iraq".
