Nobody is going to disagree, or should I say, should disagree that the East and Islam, Sunni and Shiite are stuck further in the past than the rest of the world as far as theocratic thought.
But even in the more open pluralistic west even we have our problems and we have our nuts bent on religious based holy book based bat shittery. <----That part is serious, not sarcastic.
China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and America, including all other nations, not enough humans want to understand we are not a separate species. Our respective powers are all part of the same global market and unfortunately ideology sells , fear sells and war sells. It is up to the sane to constantly point this out and combat this.
I don't blame human ancestors worldwide for not knowing better. You are not responsible for what your ancestors did 1400 years ago, anymore than I am responsible for what my ancestors did 1900 years ago. Nor are today's Chinese responsible for what Chairman Mo did.
But I do agree that if an individual who values non violence and compassion, it is certainly up to all worldwide whom value that, to remember the past and demand we avoid the horrors of the past.
As a serious note; the Middle East is not at all Islamic; or even close to represent the past Ottoman Islamic caliphate. This is a new post World War 2 world; a world so different than the one that fought the first world war.
The east is a colony for the highest payer; governments here literally treat its people as enemies; the torture videos and the aftermath of the Arab spring are examples of what this region has become.
The west (after losing 60 Million people in a global world war caused by the west itself) learned its lesson: so many people in the west adapted the so called "illumination" which was a result of the French revolution 200 years before the great war; I think westerners picked that path over the religious path, because obviously Christianity and Judaism did them nothing to stop the 60 Million deaths.
The Middle East got crushed between the fighting super-powers, the conclusion was that so many people copy-cat the west blindly to get what the west has now.
The west might have its nuts; but it's the one calling the shots in this world of today. The west is the victorious faction in WW2 with Hitler and the USSR gone; the east is just a follower that has no saying. Usually; the agony of the Ottoman empire's defeat makes some Muslims blow themselves from anger.

The use of radioactive weapons like that, caused mutations and moralities between Iraqi children, and moreover it's a very low thing to use atomic waste as ammo to escape the hammer of accusations of "anti human rights acts".
Yeah, not letting you get away with that. There is a world of difference between radioactive weapons and nuclear weapons. Bullets and armour made from depleted uranium can in no rational sense be classified as 'nuclear weapons'.

Quote:The use of depleted uranium weapons is again causing concern. The people of Kosovo have been alarmed to discover that the conflict there has left radioactive contamination, just as it did in Kuwait nine years ago. Why do the United States and Britain continue to use a waste product of the nuclear industry in their weapons?
Looks pretty nuclear to me
