I don't think so. We have a party here, which defends fundamentalist
opinions mostly, claimed once (before they came to the rule after an
elimination) that they would have been making interest forbidden, even
saying that they have an economic model for it. Of course it was bull s and,
after taking the government, they couldn't even mentioned it a second time.
I think they just realized that world ruled by money, not the god.
It is even much more impossible for a 3rd worlder country like Pakistan or
my country, with 2-3 digit annual inflation rates. Isn't it strange that
most of the Islam countries are 3rd worlders?
