Infidels

unbelievers

Turks who are Muslims consider Christians infidels, just as Christians consider Muslims infidels.

Muslims clerics can and do exercise political power, Christian clerics do so to a much lesser degree.

Moderate countries will always have difficulty dealing with radical elements, it becomes more difficult when politics and religion are inextricably linked in countries like Iraq and Iran. Turkey has to deal with the Kurds and they are very willing to set aside the niceties of western civilization (human rights) to do so.

Even Sodamn Insane was forced to acknowledge the power of the Shiite clergy in Iraq, sentencing those he dared not kill to house arrest.
