Security or Freedom First?

Stephen Schwartz

Center for Islamic Pluralism, Washington, D.C.

The commentator, head of an international moderate Muslim network, criticizes the "security first" concept as an expression of revived American isolationism based on miscomprehension of the Islamic world and the aims of lawful Islamists, ignorance of the conflicts within Islam, and lack of clarity on democracy.

Key Words: democracy • Iraq • insurgency • takfir • Balkans
