yeah but almost none of those guys ever won an election

if you go back and look at turkish elections, the ones that were actually free and fair were almost always won by islamists (who may or may not then be couped later)

Are you just basically limiting free and fair to "elections won by the Democratic party" or something? (also even the democratic party wasn't so much islamist as it wasn't as hardline secularist as CHP)

christian fundamentalists talk a big game, but it is literally impossible for them to desecrate the holy places of islam any better than the House of Saud already does

I feel like the wahhabi desecration of Mecca is a good view of how horrible it would be to have evangelicals in charge of Jerusalem.

Also their deep desire to destroy Mecca and Medina is something that goes way, way far back.
