If you have a muslim country, it really does not matter what the people do or try to do. It is always doomed to failure. Their problem is Islam and Islam can only produce failure.
So what every leader, ruler or elite they think to improve with will just fail, as they have continually done so for 1400 years.
The appeasers and enablers of Islam must hate prosperity. Because Islam has never produced it and never will. Muslim nations will Always be at unrest.

Islamic society is structurally flawed. It has a tendency to head towards Islam.
