    Very true...

    There is no such thing as 'political' Islam. Leaders just choose to politicize Islam for their own self interest. It slanders the religion, and makes the people of their country think that they are fit to lead. It's unfortunate, but true. And yes, despite the poll tax, Jews did live in Syria under the direct protection of the state. It's unfortunate that a 'democratically' run government in Israel can not do the same for the Palestinians (Christians/Muslims or otherwise).
