The great colonial empires and generals that wrote treatises on how to best subjugate entire peoples and societies through complete destruction of their lives and history may be skeletal memories for many, but the soul of those strategies remains in tact and in constant movement. In the case of Muslims this soul has, indeed, become now an acceptable and insidious part of the common narrative that positions the world’s Muslims in constant need of salvation: they cannot get democracy right, they cannot treat their women right; they don’t have a humane way of slaughtering animals; they want religion to be a part of their public life and they look a certain way that doesn’t conform to our normalcy. They need help.
