contribute to agrricultural research ?
contribure to Internalional Food aid ?
contribute to Computer Science research ?
comtribute to religious tollerance ?
(i.e., can *I*, a white Amarican take
a vacation and visit Mecca?)

...'Nuff said.


What have you, as a "white American," contributed to advancing the areas
you mentioned?


*Much*! .... (you wanna compare Resumes ?)
But your comment suggest a myopic mentality.
Active in the above areas, why is it that I don't
see Arab/muslims active in trade journals etc in
the context of the above?



Ahhh. You think all Muslims have names that fit your stereotypes.

Is the A.M.A., IEEE,
etc. etc. all "biased" media sources too??


There are many Muslim scientific contributors in the world, though many
have left their homelands.


Just
why *IS* it that companies ike Haliburton in an
Arab land is an issue in the FIRST place?


Because that is where they can get the best non-bid contracts.


Why
IS it that (of all places) "France" has to come in
and build nulcear reactors in Iraq/Iran? What of
more basic things like manufacturing, and construction?
Why IS it that the "Germans" have to come in an
build concreate bunkers for Saddam Hussien ?
...I thought "Bin Ladan" was the construction king?
If you haven't noticed, and thus was the "message"
here, the Arabs (for what*ever* reason), have
fallen out humam advancement years ago, and
it has led to this mis-placed Ara fustration that
the world has come to know as "militant islam".


Well, I think you're wrong. These days, there are plenty of Muslims even
in their homelands making interesting scientific progress.



And the Arab leader wanna-b's try to explain
this by a voo-doo religion as the reason/cause.



A voo-doo religion? You're quite the racist, eh.


Poorly worded but full of truths. The culture that shaped Islam is a
culture of the tribe. It's top down and the common man has no power, there
can be no middle class. It discourages individual thought, gives all power
to the religious leaders, what we Christians had during the dark ages with
the inquisition. Arab countries in many ways are still in the 15th century
"dark ages".

The answer to the above questions is simply; there is no middle class.
