We have all types of governments doing bad things to their people, that's for sure. I don't want to compare muslim and non-muslim governments, because that's sounding like I disapprove of a muslim government being fair. I think problem is more simple than that.

Radical islamics are hindering the progress of free and democratic governments. They get into power and use the blame game to control the population. It's unfortunate, but most of the people living in these places are so uneducated and brainwashed in religious services that they follow them because they feel like they don't have a choice

But then you have a place like Iran, where the people are not dumb and are pushing for revolution. This is inspiring and does not need a big outside influence to go through. The people are protesting and the government is listening. I think the situation is going to be unique in each country.
