UPDATE: The AFP piece below appears to be a mistranslation. Bougrab actually said“There is no such thing as a moderate Islamism”: il n’existe pas d’«islamisme modéré». So back down the rabbit hole we go.
Jeannette Bougrab is quite right. There are people who identify themselves as Muslims who are not interested in waging jihad against non-Muslims, but there is no form of Islam recognized as authentically Muslim by mainstream Islamic authorities that does not teach that the Islamic community has a responsibility to wage war against and subjugate unbelievers.
