Democracy holds little allure in the Muslim world

My inadequate attempts at trying to describe the Islamic concept of Umma (or Ummah) by using the word "Homeland" are exposed by this article. The real problem is that Islamic culture is so alien to its western cousin, that misapprehensions are to be expected. The superficial folly of the neo-cons paradigm has led us into a morass worse than the Mesopotamian swamps.
