Whatever the fuck happens in Pakistan these days. I mean burning women alive for refusing marriage and accepting a law to "lightly" beat wives?
From what I've gathered Pakistan used to be a lot more diverse in it's muslim denominations. Sufi types and big pilgrimmages to monuments/graves (something considered shirk these days) were commonplace. During the wars with India over Bangladesh the government and military started receiving a lot of funding from Saudi Arabia, and this gave power to the Deobandi in educational spheres, who have shaped a generation.
These days though all the "purist" muslim cults who are fighting against the taint of the infidel's influence are starting to melt into one another, and there is precious little difference between a Deobandi and a Salafist and a Wahhabi and etc. SA aren't even bothering funding a rival school anymore, they just moved on to straight up funding their own schools in Pakistan a while back. And why not? They all share the same goal, really, and though they may have slightly differing interpretation they agree on the big points.
Always at the center of the web you find SA and the other petro-rich sunni feudal tribal kingdoms of the Gulf. Muslims the world over have no problem swallowing retarded, ridiculous conspiracy theories about evil world manipulating jews or bloodthirsty western crusaders out for muslim blood, cynically funding false-flag muslim attacks on their own people in some sort of convoluted geopolitical scheme for resources, going so far as creating ISIS out of hired mercenaries and Mossad/CIA undercover agents. But are seemingly oblivious to the much more obvious culprits, the ones with the most to gain from a religious/ethnic (same thing in the mideast really) civil war in Syria and Iraq.
Could it possibly be SA and Iran, the two figureheads for the sunni/shia cold war that has been shaping up in the region since decolonization? No, of course not, must be the mysterious figures sitting in the shadows smoking cigars, as they have total and absolute control over every single event that ever happens, like some sort of bored, omniscient greek pantheon. Not like SA and Iran and other "third world" countries have massive wealth and influence, with their own geopolitical goals and strategies.
And oh god, the naive idiots who were all pumped up about the "revolt" against evil tyrant Assad. Even had the "revolt" suceeded early on before the wolves moved in, it would have resulted in ethnic cleansing and fragmentation of Syria at best, a repeat of Iraq, since it was an ethnic/sectarian war from the very onset. The window-dressing of "freedom" and "democracy" was clearly directed at a useful idiot western audience, and paid off a little at the start. But as we see every time in the muslim world, those concepts aren't exactly motivating. Sooner or later the real organic product shows up, the insane radical islamist. That is the true populist expression of muslim-majority countries,something most western people can't seem to wrap their heads around. We are apparently too used to the insane extremes of individualist/collectivist dichotomy common to the western political process to perceive the world in any other way.
