Can you please further explain your reasoning here? Not very clear to me?

Fair point and thanks. But by “now,” I implied the modern period. It began with the wiping of Ottoman Armenians from Anatolia. Nationalism, “anti-imperialism,” and Islamism ultimately created a poisonous mix.

This big story in @TheAtlantic on the near-destruction of #Christianity in Mideast is saddening.
The curious thing is that #Islam has dominated the region for 14 centuries, but this is happening only now, marking the unprecedented crisis of Islam. theatlantic.com/international/…

With this logic, he must be anti-Arab, too, as he speaks of the manipulation by Gulf States as well.

“On blasphemy, Muslims will come to accept liberal norms when they understand that they are not helping their religion by responding to criticism, or even ridicule, with violence and fury.”

Superb book. An important read for Jews, Christians and Muslims. I think it will open many people's eyes as to the centrality of Jesus in Islam, and how the Muslim vision of Jesus relates to early understandings of Christ by Christians themselves.

My piece in @ForeignPolicy with @hikmet_karcic on how European veterans of the #Bosnian war radicalised an entire generation of far right extremist.

Sure it did. Or used to have. But the love affair with Moscow seems to have toned it down.

As China’s oppression of Uyghurs goes unnoticed by Muslim leaders, so does Russia’s oppression of Tatars in Crimea, “whom the Russians are brainwashing and alienating from Tatar culture, language, and their Muslim religion.“

Is the upcoming re-run of Istanbul’s mayoral election a blow to democracy?

Watch this, not least for the gobsmacking whataboutism equating @DAaronovitch moving from the Guardian to the Times with pro-government moguls in #Turkey buying newspapers and firing critical journalists.
Cue the response from Mehdi Hasan: David Aaronovitch isn’t in prison. twitter.com/AkyolinEnglish…

I had a lively, if not heated, discussion with @hrnarmgn, a member of Turkey's ruling AKP,
on @AJUpFront by @mehdirhasan.
We discussed the re-run of Istanbul elections, press freedom, and, alas, even my father's place in the Turkish media. @CatoPress

If Wikipedia wins this case, the Turkish government will lose, but the Turkish people will win - at least those among them who are interested in "knowledge." twitter.com/laurapitel/sta…
