MO says when confroting religious autocrats at the regional and national level whose ideology is grounded in Quranic Socialism, there is going to have to be a bit more destroying than building. The new ideology and tactics may be producing more temporary accomodation on the part of indigenous peoples/host forces that fundamental change. Rigid paternalism, rigid monothesim and rigid tribalism have been around alot longer than than empowerment, cultural sensitivity and warm hugs. If you ain't marrying their women and praying some to their God, you ain't going to leave much of a footprint behind when you go home.
