----

''This page and [[Islam as a political movement]] were proposed (''by whom?'') as a replacement for [[Islamism]] which is [[NPOV dispute|disputed]].  This page was listed on [[Wikipedia:Votes for deletion|Votes for deletion]] on September 18 2003 but not deleted. See [[Talk:Militant Islam/Delete]] for the discussion. This and [[Islamism]] has been protected, by those who advocate the POV of [[Islamism]].  See [[Talk:Militant Islam/Delete]] for discussion.''

'''Militant Islam''' is a term used by Western political commentators for what they deem to be excessively violent aggressive political activity by [[Islam]]ic individuals, groups, movements or governments. These Western commentators see such activity as operating outside the framework of [[democracy]].  

(contracted; show full)

''Certain of these movements are often accused of being primarily motivated by [[terrorism]] as a tactic.  For discussion of this accusation see the article on the term [[Islamism]] which is employed by the accusers who reject the rationale of Islam itself.  No neutral list can be compiled, so we do not attempt it here.''
