You are confusing Muslim with Arab. Most of the world's Muslims are
not Arabs. You also need to be aware that not all Arab countries are
identical. Dubai (UAE) has a far more open society than Saudi Arabia,
for instance.
This thread started with information about a tech conference (relevant
to the list), and has degenerated into poorly-informed stereotypes
(completely irrelevant, and disappointing to read).
Between this and all the 'why I hate Microsoft', 'my ISP is the
worst', and 'the Googles are dumb' threads lately, this list is being
a real drag to read lately.
