Column 1 Do they believe in democracy in Iraq and the Arab countries in order to have real elections under the influence of the Islamists?
[/CENTER]
We say this speech not only to Iraq, but to all the Arab and Islamic countries. We challenge any regime, party, movement, official, thinker or intellectual who looks and promotes democracy in these countries to prove to us and others that there is a democracy in which these peoples believe. Constants, characteristics, recipes, curriculum and values of democracy! .
In some Arab countries, these classes have tried in the recent past to find a kind of incomplete and incomplete secularism, even those simple attempts at secularism and democracy at the same time that they have created A kind of mating between Islam and Western values we have seen has failed miserably and crushed and suppressed and almost today does not exist on the Arab arena.
I am certain that we will not see or be or find democracy and its branches, such as secularism, free and fair elections, the separation of powers and religion from politics and the state because of the influence of the Islamists. The other reason is the linking of civil laws and legislations to Sharia. And as a barrier to the true democracy of the Arab peoples and with them the Islamic.
The Arab people especially do not believe in democracy, and to be fair, I do not say all 100%. There is even one who believes in democracy and secularism and its branches, but unfortunately this percentage does not reach up to 20%. Events confirm this hypothesis, so to speak.
In my humble opinion, and I hope to be a sinner, I can say that the Renaissance, the openness, the acceptance of civilizations, the coexistence and the types of democracies and secularism in the Arab countries ended, and on their way to extinction and disappearance, all of them ended in the late 1970s It is in Egypt that caused this disaster and the dilemma, especially since Sadat took power in Egypt.
Again will come who says why Egypt! Yes Egypt was the reason, Egypt is the largest Arab country, the largest Islamic reference is Al-Azhar, Egypt was the pioneer of art and openness and coexistence and culture and creativity and printing and composition and poets, etc., Egypt was a place and serves as father and mother and leader of the Arab peoples, when Egypt collapses or goes to another particular road , It is normal that the other parts of the Arab countries will collapse with their people.
Egypt has chosen the catastrophic Islamic awakening since that date, ie, the influence of Al-Azhar, the Brotherhood, Salafi Jihadism and others. In contrast to this dangerous cancerous event that took place in Egypt during the era of Sadat in the seventies, the Sunni Islamic awakening, He did the other side of Islam, which is Shiite.
There is no Arab Shiite state competing with Egypt other than Iran, for this reason and the reasons why it is necessary to find and create another Shiite competitor that is at least equal in strength and reaction. The only contender was Khomeini. It was planned that Iraq would be the rival of Egypt in that game because of the Shiite majority of over 65%. But Iraq was excluded for several reasons, including the presence of Saddam, who was a servant of the intelligence services, the presence of Kurds as the largest national in Iraq Not religiously observant, there are other nationalities and religions added That Sunni Islam was a major figure not dress it, this was Iran's choice is large in size and big Nfosha.
Therefore, the result has become as follows: Democracy has been introduced to Egypt since the end of the seventies and was called Islamic democracy. In Islam there is no democracy but Shura, Al-Baya'a and other Islamic terms used in the Islamic era that ruled the region. Egypt and the peoples of the Arab countries, and since that time emerged in Egypt pole against another pole, the first pole is the rule of the military, and the second pole is the power of Al-Azhar and clergy, so that the budget of Al-Azhar alone annually about 13 billion, and has the largest university in the world and thousands Schools, investments and other services. It annually produces tens of thousands of Islamists, terrorists and militants in Egypt and the world.
In Iran, a special Shiite Islam was created, namely, the state of the Islamic jurisprudence and the export of the Islamic revolution to the Arab and Islamic countries. He is the leader, leader and leader of the nation by a committee set up by him and he is the diagnostic committee.
These great experiences were transferred from Egypt and Iran to the Arab countries and to Iraq, especially after 2003. The majority of the Shiites who came to power are imitating and applying the Shiite Islamic regime in Iran, and most of the Sunnis who share power also apply Sunni Islam in Egypt to the Brotherhood and Salafi.
Then again, who says that in the Arab countries and Iraq now, especially elections and democracy, I think he needs preliminary lessons in order to understand what democracy and elections are. Is it reasonable to find democracy and free and fair elections under the rule of Shiite and Sunni religious parties? Cultural values, ie, democracy, elections, the separation of the three powers, freedom of opinion, belief and belief, the exercise of personal freedoms and others.
What is happening in Iraq is nothing but a farce and a play and laughter on the minds of some Iraqis, Iraq today is plagued by corruption, quotas, criminality, racism, sectarianism, sectarianism, exclusion and so on. Those who claim democracy and elections under an Islamic constitution in my opinion may need intellectual or mental treatments. And a great and vast between Islam and democracy.
I do not find real democracy or free and fair elections in Arab and Islamic countries or in Iraq until after a genuine reform of Islam that does not tarnish it here and there, as some of the users and charlatans call for, such as Sisi, who demands his enemy friend Al-Azhar to reform curricula and religious discourse.
Now we see them and find them on satellite channels and videos trying in vain to reform and assimilate Islam, but these attempts are doomed to failure and failure because of the power of the Islamists and their religious references and the already recognized street. In order to be there and to see leaps in these countries and their peoples in all cultural, scientific, civilizational, democratic, Islam, as it has been in Europe for more than 500 years, can not be promoted unless nations and peoples are brought back and put religion in its proper place - the church, the mosque or any place of worship for those who have other beliefs. It is only here that he assumes,
