>Women were given the right to vote, inheritance and proprietary rights under Islam 1200 years before the West recognised any part of this issue.

Can you point out some articles which show that women were given the right to vote

>The fact that the entire region is almost exclusively Muslim is a clear evidence. This stood until the UK and US sponsored invasions by European and American Jews (and more recently Christians into regions such as the Lebanon, now making it 50% Christian).

How about before the Arab Muslim sponsored invasions ? what was the region's religious mix

>Children in western schools are not taught of Islam's influence on history

Show me which arab or majority muslim nations teaching their children about their countries history before moslem conquest and invasion ?

Are they doing in Iraq, Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan

This article is a typical brain wash used by Islamists.
