They might be facts, but Dawkins is referencing them as a point to imply that Islam is the motivating factor behind them and ignoring all of the socio-economic issues contributing to those facts.

I don't think it's bigotry, just ignorance and gross over-simplification.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
