I'm poised for both Pakistan, Indonesia, and Iraq to become Muslim theocracies in the very near future. I'm watching Turkey too!
If you read the newspaper in any country, you will see headlines about trouble with the established governments in all of these countries.
There is a very strong grass roots movement away from "Western" influences and a re surging interest in returning to "basics" and family values as well as a strengthening interest that increased religious involvement is the solution for many of these social problems.
What is concerning is that there are many who feel that ONLY a religious theocracy can solve these problems; people have increasingly lost the trust of secular governments and elected officials in these specific countries to be able to enact these needed social changes.
