 Right up front is this bullshit:  "Islamist movements seek to re-shape the state by implementing a conservative formulation of Sharia." 

 This is simply not true of all who profess to be Islamists, i.e. those supporting Islam as a political movement.  The moderate democratic Islamist party in Turkey certainly does not seek this, their position on what Islam is, is more like the modern UN human rights position.  And in Iraq there are Islamists who call for the "most liberal of several interpretations of Sharia" to be used, as it was under Saddam Hussein.  So as usual this article is slanting because the slogan 'Islamism' is not real but is made up by the opponents of Islamists.
