How 'bout this :
Muslims are spread over many countries
( not the case as much with Hindis for instance ).
The average GDP per person is not even from one to another but lower than for say West.
A little less basics, a little less education, a little less health care but also on average …
a lot less democracy!
When you say that Muslims haven't done enough, you should remember that the average
Muslim in kingdoms has no say in pressuring opinion one way or another.
Pakistan is much closer to a standard republic from a westerner's point of view. KSA, not
so much! And kings can be benign or wise ( Jordan & Morocco ). Iran due to the presence
of the Revolutionary Council is an hybrid. In other places, the military plays the stabilizing role
that carries or secures the Fihq's protection. But I'm not sure all Bahrainis feel listened to??
In most discussions about Islam as the body of believers, people arguing forget the relative
helplessness of the average Muslim versus that of the vote yielding citizen in EU or USA.
As such any call made without adjusting for comparison is flawed IMHoO.
The voice of Muslims as individual is lesser internationally, it's a fact!
By the way, Christians as main inhabitants of Western Civ. couldn't vote in a unified block
either if required to do so. An anti-evolution Born Again type in the deep South has little in
common with a Swiss Lutherian, a French Catholic or an Orthodox, be him Greek or Russian!
Read you later, Tay.
