Saddam, really? Wasn't he a Baath and anti-religion?--iFaqeer 01:57, Sep 21, 2004 (UTC)

Its a good start, but it needs more content and some cleaning up

This article sounds extremely interesting, but it doesn't really contain any concrete facts or even cited sources for its assertions. Take this, for instance:

"Scholars have highlighted the similarities between the Islamic economic system and socialist theory, e.g., both are against unearned income. Islam does allow private ownership but natural resources and large industries are owned collectively."

Which scholars have highlighted the similarities between the Islamic economic system and socialist theory? Where in the Koran does it call for collective ownership of large industries and natural resources? -- ktaylor

Both Qaddafi and Bhutto were nationalists, not Islamic clerics or anything like that. I don't think there is any Islam in this socialism at all.Bless sins 16:08, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
