I think this battle for Islamic moderation was lost back in the 70s, Kazan is an anachronism, unfortunately.
When we supported Saddam's rise to power, putting a Sunni minority over a Shia majority in Iraq? Or when we supported the Mujahadeen against the secular pro-Soviet government of Afghanistan?
It may have been lost even sooner in the forties when Anglo-Soviet forces forced Reza Shah to abdicate in favor of his son, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, better known as the infamous Shah of Iran. a widely-hated iron-fisted dictator perceived to be a Western puppet.
Hopefully Kazan will not stay an 'anachronism'. The majority of Muslims don't even live in North Africa and the Middle East anymore.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
