I have to apply the human aspect of all our culture dictates . . . — Chali 2na

When considering the Islamic world, Turkey is the best example of a country where democracy irreversibly gained a foothold despite religious and cultural traditions still respected today.

In my opinion, it is up to the ruling elite to initiate cardinal changes. — Garry Kasparov

But since the end of the 1970s, at the beginning of the revolution in Iran under Khomenei, we have experienced a politicization of Islam.

We cannot simply ignore it. — Alice Schwarzer

It isn't always linked to Islam. — Alice Schwarzer
