She traces the roots of international terrorism across the world, including American support for Pakistani general Zia-ul-Haq, who destroyed political parties, eliminated an independent judiciary, marginalized NGOs, suspended the protection of human rights, and aligned Pakistani intelligence agencies with the most radical elements of the Afghan mujahideen. She speaks out not just to the West, but to the Muslims across the globe who are at a crossroads between the past and the future, between education and ignorance, between peace and terrorism, and between dictatorship and democracy. Democracy and Islam are not incompatible, and the clash between Islam and the West is not inevitable.--From publisher description.0 aThe path back -- The battle within Islam : democracy versus dictatorship, moderation versus extremism -- Islam and democracy : history and practice -- The case of Pakistan -- Is the clash of civilizations inevitable? -- Reconciliation. 0aIslam and politics. 0aIslam and politicszIslamic countries. 0aIslamic countriesxPolitics and government. 0aIslam and politicszPakistan. 0aPakistanxPolitics and government. 0aIslamic countriesxRelationszEurope. 0aEuropexRelationszIslamic countries. 0aDemocracyxReligious aspectsxIslam 0aIslamy21st century. 7aIslamic fundamentalism.2sears 7aIslam and politics.2sears 7aIslam and politicszPakistan.2sears 7aPakistanxForeign relations.2sears 7aIslamic countriesxForeign relationszWestern countries.2sears 7aWestern countriesxForeign relationszIslamic countries.2sears 7aPakistanxPolitics and government.2sears c16077d16077
