This is some of the most baseless, unfounded rationale I've ever heard. Personal wealth is inviolable under Islamic law, and just as a ruler has no prima facie right to force a sale, he has no prima facie right to force a purchase. This is one of the ABCs of Fiqh. Additionally,.

"Islamism" is a term to get unassuming Muslims to sign off on self-hatred by created a good/bad Muslim paradigm. When you probe the "Islamist" quickly becomes any Muslim with autonomy and agency who practices his or her faith without kowtowing to western sensitivities.
This really is a fight between Islamism and the free world. It’s a fight between a Middle Ages ideology and the modern world of freedom, tolerance, & secularism. Israel is on the front lines of this fight, but all of us who share these Western values are in this fight as well.
