Is there a Moderate Form of Political Islam?

[Anomalocaris]

^I must have missed something. What does all the stuff about fighter jets have to do with whether there is such a thing as a politically moderate Islamist government?

Boru

   The way they operate is quite universal.
 
Ex: Iran has a fighter jet called Hesa Qowsar. Based on US F-5 fighters:

   A complete piece of junk if you ask me. But it’s like Kim Yon Un and his nuclear missiles. Political Islamists + authoritarian regimes love displaying new weapons. In Freudian terms this is like their “penis” issues.
 
   Our Kaan fighter jet is not a piece of junk. That’s not what I am saying. What I am saying is that it is the result of a century of investment into avionics that was started by the secular founder of the Turkish Republic. Yet these …s are acting as if it was the result of their efforts.
 
So I am putting them back to their place and I am shedding light on how they operate in a bid to win the hearts of people who are less informed than me on these issues

Technically, there is such a thing as moderate fascism. It’s just called conservatism.

I am not a conservative hater. 
 
Ex: Mrs. Angela Merkel's party (Christian Democrats) was a conservative party as well. Yet, she her policies (like the taking in of a million Syrian refugees while France only took some 20,000) was very progressive.
 
Yet Populism (right wing populism, left wing populism, racist populism, socialist populism, Religious, Neo-Liberal Populism, Political Islamist populism etc…) is something else and that’s what I am trying to show.

Islam Lite?

Here is a short explanatory video on this:

It is far too early to tell whether Kaan is a piece of junk or not.     Turkey certainly has not followed the path of other up and coming aeronautical powers in building up the capacity of its aerospace industry through incremental steps of trial and error, designing and producing  lower spec and performance aircrafts such as jet trainers,  Small to medium utility aircraft, etc, before embarking on the design of a competitive jet fighter.     turkey’s overall industrial r&D capability is probably not the equal of any country which had succeeded in builting a indigious modern jet fighter since the end of WWII.     So My hunch is Kaan currently looks far better than it actually will turn out to be unless Turkey manage to secure some serious collaboration from foreign powers with much deeper modern combat aircraft design and building experience and much broader aeronautical R&D Capability.
