There is nothing like a totalitarism with a "human face"

There is nothing like a totalitarianism with a "human face", I know it, I am Czech. And there will never be an "islam with a human face". It's an ethnocentric vision. For which reason, other than tactical, would islam search to become "democratic", being based on the total submission to its god, the only legitimate legislator (as you well know) ?

You are mistaking your wishes for reality. "Islam is islamism at rest and islamism is islam in motion." (Hamid Zanaz, author of "L'islamisme, vrai visage de l'islam", in french - Islamism, the true face of islam)
