The hoax of moderate islamists.

A lot of political analysts today claim that the extremist islamist movements are history, according to them people are fed up with all the threats that these movements have made through the last years whether it was from Al Qaida or the GIA in Algeria the message has practically been the same. So now, especially after these revolutions that have taken place in the arab world which gave the chance to some new islamist movements to appear, as some call them "the moderate islamist movements", the message that we get each time we turn on the TV or check the newspaper "we are a pacific movement and we are nothing like the extremist islamists". At first glance, one may be thrilled to know that finally he or she would be able to live in a democratic country that respects all personal freedoms and opinions, especially since this kind of thoughts would definitely be unimaginable once the radical islamists take the power. A journalist announced that the reaction over Osama Bin Laden's death proves the end of these movements, he said "If Osama Bin Laden were killed seven years ago there would have been a totally different reaction than it is today". Most people today have showed their willingness to embrace these "neo islamist movements" and give them a chance especially that they have been living in a secular country for over than fifty years (Tunisia). However, this may sound weird but is there really a difference between the two movements mentioned above ? Rached Ghannouchi the leader of Ennahdha, the islamist party in Tunisia in one of his latest statements declared that they do not intend to forbid people from drinking alcohol and women from wearing bikinis. This statement made most of the islamist community members critisize Ghannouchi for his, as they put it, "greed for power". But then he made a different statement which I personnaly consider very dangerous. He said that islam is not about imposing principles, it's about rooting them in the society on phases. We should also remember that all the islamists' project no matter what they claim is the same "Al Khilafa". So in other words the actual difference between these two movements is nothing but the period it takes to complete their project. The moderate islamists work on a long term project while the extremists just impose it on people once they take control, but eventually the result is the same NO DEMOCRACY !    Iuvenis Sapiens.
