Are the Alevi sect of Shi'as considered Muslims?

Yes. It is a somewhat more liberal sect, but a Muslim sect nonetheless. However, this sect does a lot of things that Islam prohibits, such as the consumption of alcohol.

Answer Alevi also do not worship in mosques. Their place of gathering (since it is not strictly a place for worship) is called a cemevi, which means "gathering place" in Turkish. This places Alevi in a difficult position in Turkey as Sunni islam is the state religion, amd imams are state employees, and state funding goes to the building of mosques.

So, in many Alevi areas, the call to prayer goes unanswered.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
