Talibanization



Talibanization is a neologism coined after the rise of the Afghani Taliban describing the process by which a strict and repressive Islamist regime comes to power within which Islamist terrorism and religious persecution of non-Muslims is tolerated or encouraged, in reference to how the Taliban took control of Afghanistan and thereafter harbored the terrorist network of Al Qaeda and conducted such religious persecutions as the destruction of the Buddhas of Bamyan. Talibanization is often distinguished by a strict imposition of sharia law from the Islamic Jurisprudence of Fiqh, coupled with overt or covert Hesperophobiac (anti-Western) hostilities and harsh treatment of those who adhere to non-Muslim faiths, a policy at times referred to as Islamofascism.
