Egypt and Lebanon have religious freedom, why aren't they thriving? Afghanistan, Iran, and a bunch of other majority Muslim nations have religious freedom (for Muslims), why aren't they the utopias you say they should be?

I'm not saying religion should be completely banned, but what's happening in Central Asia is a reaction to Taliban, the rise of Islamic terror groups and tyranny through religion. I bet a big part of it is also a knee-jerk reaction to recent developments in Türkiye, where Turkish identity is under assualt with Islam being the shield which has protected those who seek to destroy the nation.

What I'm saying is, these Central Asian Turkic nations view Islamism as a trojan horse and they're absolutely correct. What's going to stop China in the future from backing Islamist terrorists in Central Asia, then going in and systematically taking over it Israel style? You realise that's EXACTLY WHAT ISRAEL DID? They backed Islamists in Palestine, and it all worked beautifully for them.


"Hamas was initially discreetly supported by Israel as a counter-balance to the secular PLO. During the 1990s and early 2000s, the organization conducted numerous suicide bombings and other attacks against Israel."

I'm not talking about small religious groups seizing power and turning the country into an asylum. I'm saying that religious elements that have become societal norms should not be banned by the state. For example, banning the headscarf, which is worn by ordinary Muslim women, would only strengthen religious groups. Prohibitions that provoke public backlash will benefit extremists.

They are not banning headscarfs.

They are banning burqua, carsaf, where you can't see if the person behind it is a woman or not, or if they have bombbelts.. Just like how the terrorist used to dress like that and suicide bomb in Kizilay meydani and other places.
