There is an important difference between Iran and Turkey.
Iranians are much less antisemitic than Turks.
Also, Iranians, at least the ones that I meet in the west, are on average substantially more intelligent.
There is just one confusion:
Radical Islam in only quantitatively different from Islam.
“Moderate Islam” is cancer in remission, it is very likely to return as radical Islam.
It is like herpes retrovirus, it will break out again when the immune system is weakened.
The difference between Radical Islam, and Moderate Islam, is that Radical Islam requires a much stronger immune reaction — it requires bombs, missiles — it may require chemo and radiation if it gets a little more radical.

Brilliant, clear, honest, simple!
