A evout Muslim, and democrat, becomes Turkey's President. Historians, like economists, are rightfully wary of the phrase "it's different this time." The higher the stakes, the more pressing the desire to avoid past errors. Considering the ravages that followed the introduction of Islamic Law, or Shari'a, in places like Iran in 1979 and Afganistan in the 1990s, Westerners can be forgiven for worrying about election of a former Islamist, Abdullah Gul, to the presidency of Turkey, the one Muslim democracy that seemed to have avoided Islamic extremism so far.
