the religion of peace!!!!

The five pillars of Islam..... murder, bestiality, terrorism, cowardice and abuse of women and children.

Know islam, no peace; No islam, know peace

If the Arabs put down their guns, there would be no more violence.
If the Israelis put down their guns, there would be no more Israel.

The Pope's quoted words wer never more true......

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus

I wonder if this would eventually produce a more or less stable regime?

It’s s one thing to impose a fantasy view of the outside world on an agricultural society ravaged by war and prior to the advent of mass communication in a place like North Korea, it’s quite another to try and impose a hyper-puritan regime based on inefficient economic system on a largely urban country which has already been widely exposure to the allures of Western consumer culture – especially since it’s already gone through an extended period of idealistic radicalism.

China after the demise of the Gang of Four and their movement post Cultural Revolution might serve in some respects as an model – you end up with a autocratic, formally ”Islamic” society attempting to retain the trapping of legitimacy while adopting Western Economic goals and methods.
