I have to reply to this below:
"1. The Middle East isn't being modernized. The only places that are getting better are Oman and Tunisia ... neither of those things have anything to do with the West. They have to do with Muslims, thankfully, finally having decent leadership and challenging the bull shit ultra-conservative orthodoxy. Sadly, those two countries make up like 15 million people total out of that 1.6 billion Muslims you mention. The problem is not that all Muslims are "radical," the problem is that large majorities of them think that the death penalty is acceptable for apostasy, that adultery is punishable by stoning, and that women are property. From that cultural baseline, a long line of "radicals," at least from the perspective of a liberal western society, spring forth."
Tunisia is not. It's falling apart. He'll we don't even send expats to Tunisia, right now is has the same level of "stay the fuck away from" as Bangladesh and Azerbaijan. Both not 'bad', but not exactly welcoming either.
And in 10 years Oman will be in civil war. The current sultan is a homosexual with no defined heir. He has declared two candidates to figure it out for themselves.
Right now I love Oman, Omani people, and everything about Oman. It's a thousand times more friendly and inviting to a white redneck big mouthed australian than anywhere I've been in the world (lots of places). But it will fall to shit sure as beiber is a dickhead.
Muslim wise ask any 28+ year old from Saudi/Qatar/emirates what they do on Wednesday nights.... Go to Bahrain to sink piss and fuck whores.
Every Muslim I have met in 5 GCC nations who has travelled outside the GCC has been to Thailand. Do I really need to make it clear why anyone goes to fucking Thailand? (Hint, sex with 12 year old boys, chicks with dicks, and refilling your tiger bottle with piss from her flaps from across the bar). Then they all go home to become good moderate folk.
But as a country, and a Muslim country, and a country with religious overshadows on every part of politics and law... Oman is more friendly, welcoming, warm and loyal than Texas could ever dream to be. Also you yanks need to appreciate how good Muslim BBQ is, man they've been marinating meat and grilling it on coals for 3000 years. They have that shit PERFECT

This shit in France... Fuck me they allow free citizenship to ex colonized lands/countries. France has a huge problem with Muslims immigrants and 1-2nd generation French who fuckin hate the French way of life, the strong French nationalist pride, and the French liberalist way of open minded thinking.
