But over time, old culture and political practices (arabic and mesopotamian) resurrected more and more and found ways to twist and to deteriorate Islam via manufactured hadith and misinterpretations of Quran. A very clear proof of this is the current state of affairs in non-Arabic or non-mesopotamian Islamic countries like Turkey, Malaysia, Bosnia etc. The reason this countries are better of (in terms of democracy, human rights etc)  is that they can easily differentiate what is coming from real Islam (like peace, love, justice, human rights) and what is coming from the cultural traditions and sociopolitic dynamics of middle-east.

Are you sure they are able to differentiate what is coming from "real"
Islam vs what is coming from cultural traditions and sociopolitical
dynamics of middle-east?
