Quote:The Koran and Eternal WarRussia has a massive and growing Muslim population. I don't recall the figures, but someone speculated that Muslims would eventually take over the Russian military. Putin said they'd never let that happen.

News recently emerged that Russia was banning key Islamic scriptures—including Sahih Bukhari—on the charge that they promote “exclusivity [supremacism] of one of the world’s religions,” namely Islam; or, in the words of a senior assistant to the prosecutor of Tatarstan Ruslan Galliev, “a militant Islam” which “arouses ethnic, religious enmity.”
If Sahih Bukhari, a nine-volume hadith collection compiled in the 9th century and seen by Sunni Muslims as second in importance only to the Koran itself is being banned for inciting hostility, where does that leave the Koran?
After all, if Sahih Bukhari contains pro-terrorism statements attributed to the prophet of Islam and calls to kill Muslims who leave Islam, the Koran, Islam’s number one holy book itself is full of intolerance and calls for violence against non-believers...
Sounds like Russia is going the way of Kemal Ataturk, in Turkey. But such restraint of Islam seems doomed to be overwhelmed by the demographics of high Muslim birthrates, as with Turkey itself.
Perhaps Putin is waiting until America is crippled with debt, and then his true nature will come out.
