Event Details

This document appears to be a page from a transcript of an interview between 'TB' and 'DP' (likely Daniel Pipes), marked with a House Oversight Committee Bates stamp. The text discusses the historical reaction of the Muslim world to Western advancement since Napoleon's 1798 invasion of Egypt, distinguishing between the faith of Islam and the modern political movement of 'Islamism' which the speaker dates to the 1920s. The speaker argues that Islamism is causing alienation within the Muslim world (citing Iran) and predicts it will not last as a major global force.
