I know that at one time, the Islamic world was a beacon of intellectual development - math, art, architecture, etc. But now? Those countries suck, even the ones we consider allies are horrible places for human rights, women, etc.
Do Francophone countries just go after Muslim traditions? I've only read a bit about thing like the hijab ban.
