Centuries has passed since Christians made a commitment to end Christian
extremism whether it was directed from Pope's Vatican or Calvin's Geneva. This
is how separation of religion and state and later secularism was established in
the West by Christians themselves.
Hundred years ago, the Islamic world entered the era of secularism without
Muslims arriving at such a conclusion. The last four decades of bloody revival
of Islamist extremism has driven Muslims themselves to the same conclusion (1).
The latest huge wave of immigrants from the Middle East is a vote of Muslims by
their feet for a secular option.
In countries like Turkey and Iran, provisional governments need to be formed by
those who clearly reject Islamist extremism. Neither Sunni nor the Shi'a clergy
supporting Islamist extremism should be part of such transitional governments.
The global alliance against Daesh must clearly have zero tolerance for all forms
of Islamist extremism including the Shi'a version in all countries of the Middle
East. Replacing one form of Islamist extremism by another has proven to be a
total failure for humanity for more than forty years.
Hoping for a democratic and secular
futurist republic
in Iran,
