We cannot talk about political pluralism and a new phase without standing at some cases of politicians or others who, if they differ, launch campaigns of incitement and atonement just because of a difference of opinion.
In all cases, the issue is political and there is a political dispute, but soon some come out with non-objective takfiri rhetoric to curb the other party that rises above the exploitation of religion to achieve political goals. If we disagree on the curricula, the topic soon turns to religious and takfir begins, and other examples are many.
The same people and names, and often intellectuals who are aware of the repercussions of their incitement, and have been adopting this method for a long time without deterrence.
The question asked; And we are on the verge of a new phase; disagreement within the limits of the constitution is healthy. How long will we remain silent?
And are progressives, leftists, or civilians in general required to remain under the weight of fear of incitement and atonement? I am certain that all the accusations are false and not based on facts. None of us in Jordan, Muslims or Christians, would dare to be hostile to religion, God forbid.
The fiercest and fiercest opponents in Jordan, since its founding, did not witness fear when they disagreed with the state until now, and this is a record for Jordan and its leadership.
Today, however, there is another machine that masters the use of militarization. It operates without controls and is not affiliated with the state. It intimidates, demonizes and incites anyone who may have a dissenting or progressive opinion. Some of the names are well known and their speech is repeated. The question is how can we create a pluralistic system in the shadow of the presence of some who profess incitement to intimidate and silence their opponents and who are on religious and not political grounds? We have reached a stage where the other expiates for a difference of opinion by showing a movie, for example!
Those who know what they write and their possible consequences. But they don’t care.
This is a file that we must address and deal with early if we want a political life that accepts everyone. There is no objection to disagreement and criticism, but blasphemy, lying, incitement and blasphemy must stop.
Failure to deal with this file may keep a wide political spectrum away from the scene. It is not a luxury or a fad, but a shortcut and a concern. It is unreasonable to use the machine of incitement and expiation in every political file, such as the Child Law, women’s rights, or the development of education!
The group is known by names, and stopping them alone is part of the success of the political modernization process.
