This article talks about how some Islamic citizens of Tunisia are attempting to find some places in government, even though for decades the Islamics have been jailed, banned and other things. The Islamics talk promise that democracy will replace dictatorship, but many people fear that radicalism will rise up.

I say it's good for the Islamic community to see that they have some power finally, after decades of being beaten down, they finally have some power. As for the people who fear that radicalism will happen, I say oh well, isn't it possible for that to happen anywhere? I say we stop categorizing by religion, and start looking at what matters, and that would be what that person can do if they are in charge. If one candidate promises to get rid of dictatorship and make the nation a democracy, but is is Muslim, and the other candidate is your religion but will crush any sign of democracy and continue to rule with an iron fist, who are you going to vote for? I really hope you came up with the same answer as me.
