@AN-TURANIA and Pan-Islam
~ are getting to be blended
terms. The meager news that
q comes from what once was AS
iatic Russia and from what still is
Asiatie Turkey shows that the Ger
man propaganda has not lost it's cum
ming.
Pan-Turania is a very vague term,
whether it relates to the Tu-anian
languages or to the mythical origin
OF the Turks. But it has a distinct
meaning when it comes to be Joined
with Islam. for then it signifies the
renaissance of fanatical Mohamme-
danism.
The Young Turks, who early in the
great war made the alliance with
Germany. are not fanatical Moham-
ness from the Moslem standpoint was
their lack of fanaticism. They were
thought to be too much imbued with
western civilization, and even with
western ideas of progress to deserve
the confidence of the great body. of
orthodox Mohammedans, who realized
that their objects were purely po-
litical. AS it has turned out, it was
not western civilization but Hun bar
barism that they were imbued with.
and this put them in better standing
with large sections of the Moham-
medans who saw in the Hun barbar-
isr, the means Of waging war for tho
determination Of non-Moslems.
