Islamist Politicians, Not Bankers, At Davos: Don't Fear Us

Let me share with you some interesting quotations by the newly elected politicians of Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt:

"I would like to ask the businessmen in the room. Have you suffered from the victory of the Islamists? You supported the dictatorships in the past, today we can guarantee your interests more than they did in the past." Moroccan Prime Minister Abdelilah Benkirane

"I do not believe the new regimes should be called political Islamist regimes. We must be careful with our terminology. For the first time in the Arab world, we have free and honest elections that led to democratic regimes," Tunisian Prime Minister Hammadi Jebali

"It wasn't about bikinis or no bikinis, or whether to implement Sharia law. It got down to jobs, money and security, and the people wanted the best-organized groups. First you have to let the Arab world be for a while. Stop trying to impose secularism from afar," Moez Masoud, an Islamic scholar and preacher at Egypt's Al-Tareeq Al-Sah
