#1 ..but the majority of them suffered from increased poverty because they lacked education and skills.

And who's fault is that?

#2 Oh he's a bright one that Abdullah. Give him credit for saying it even though he didn't put it bluntly enough and failed to put it all together. Now for the bigger picture Abdullah, why is it so? Go on and say it my man, you'll feel much better afterward! People in your country are using religion (ISLAM) to justify the denial of education and opportunity to women (and other portions of society) in a world where globalization (the dual edged sword of modern economics fostered by the progress of western (judeo-christian shaped) culture) has offered them heretofor unheard of possibilities. Do you prefer the 14th or 21st century?

#3 Tkat - I suspect that, like most of these guys, AbDULLah prefers the 21st for himself.
