BooPear's War on Islamism Questions

Commenter BooPear noted:

"Something I've noted in quite a number of blogs, however, is lots and lots of problems identified, and plenty of talk about those problems, but typically not much offered in the way of proposed solutions.... I'd be very curious to know what you, or Gary, or Praktike, or others here think we need actually need to do, specifically, to solve the problems western civ is facing.

  • How DO we encourage some sort of Islamic reformation (or do we at all, and instead just let them sort it out on their own)?

  • How DO we reconcile the tremendous cultural gap between the West and Islam?

  • How DO we do a better job encouraging political reform in the Muslim world?

  • What can we, as private citizens do, to help all of this along?"

Fair qestions. Comments, other blog posts addressing this issue, et. al. are being compiled via our comments section.

As you post your comment, please mind our simple comment policy: we welcome all perspectives, but require that comments be both civil and respectful. We also ask that you avoid the extensive use of profanity, racist terms (neither of which we consider civil or respectful), and other boorish language.

We reserve the right to delete any comment, and to prohibit you from commenting on this site, if we feel you have broached this policy. As a courtesy, we will first send you an email noting a violation so you understand the boundaries. This will occur only once, however, and should we ban you from our comment forums we expect that ban to be permanent.

We also will frown upon those who suggest that we ban other individuals for voicing unpopular opinions, should those opinions be voiced in a civil and respectful manner. The point of our comment threads is to provide a forum for spirited though civil and respectful discourse … it is not to provide a forum in which everyone will agree with your point of view.

If you can live by these rules, welcome aboard. If not, then we’re sorry it didn’t work out, and thanks for visiting The Command Post.
