Anjem Choudary Quotes


Sharia has a ruling system, an economic system, a policy and social system, a foreign policy and judiciary system to be implemented, you know, the whole package.

In the latter half of the 20th century socialist thinking generally shifted from seeing Capitalism as the problem of society to viewing capitalism as a necessary component of modern democratic socialism. See {637821} as an example. The standard of living of all the workers depended in great part on the success of capitalism in the country.
