I found this shocking to read;
"In Egypt, the largest Arab country, 91 percent of women and girls are subjected to female genital mutilation, according to UNICEF. " As I had always considered the Egyptian society and culture to be civilized and advanced. What has happened to Egypt? What has happened to the whole arab world that they have produced little of value in the world for the whole of the 20th century? ... no technology, medicine or anything else in the world of science ... almost no contributions to world
literature, art or to intellectual development. (?) "According to the United Nations Arab Human Development Reports (2003-2005), written by Arab intellectuals... Greece, with a
population of 11 million, annually translates five times more books from
English than the entire Arab world, population 370 million. Nor is this a new development. The total number of books translated into Arabic during the last 1,000 years is less than Spain translates into Spanish in one year. ArabianBusiness.com reports that about 100 million people in the Arab world are illiterate; and three quarters of them are between the ages of 15 and 45." So the question I was reading... What has the arab world produced? and why has it not used its oil revenues to produce better education, pursue medicine, and build infrastructure? |

I only just learned of what happened to Lara Logan, journalist, when she was in Egypt during the 'arab spring'. Horrible... barbarians....
... and I am currently watching(again) a program on the ancient pyramids and structures of Egypt.... Egypt - Egyptians - the pyramids - Clearly once a people and a nation of great wisdom and knowledge What has happened to the great and wise Egyptian people? the Persians -the same - clearly once a people and a nation of great wisdom and knowledge I can only see where islam has destroyed great people and great nations.

What a rude and inflammatory statement. I only hope that our moderators have taken note and suspend your participation on the forum. |

Greetings abuayisha,
I am truly sorry that you have had this reaction. Is it a 'rude and inflammatory statement' when people say that Jesus was not the Son of God, that He was not Divine, that He did not rise from the dead? People are allowed to share their own personal observations, are they not? How many times is america called the great satan, and Israel the little satan? Are these not rude and inflammatory statements? I find them to be very inflammatory (and offensive), but I also recognize that I must accept them as expressions of how certain people really feel. I thought that we had progressed to this point on these forums. asalaam and blessings to you, Caringheart Edited by Caringheart - 28 June 2016 at 12:29pm |

They are very like other North Africans. The other peoples of the Southern Mediteranian shores. |
