Dear Dr Pipes, your reader Guardian of Deen from Canada so righteously says that not only non-Muslims but also Muslims are leaving the Islamic nations. It has been at least fifty years since any Islamic country has been under colonial rules. In these fifty years unprecedented amout of wealth has flown into Islamic lands. Fife decades is a long enough periods for the brothers to take care of brothers but brothers have only produced newer and newer kinds of fratricidal violence. So Muslims contries have no excuse to blame anyone one else but tehmselves. Why don't they just accept that Islam has failed as a socio-political system?
