Interesting, not a projection that I have seen before.

The map doesn't include Iran or Turkiye.

Is bread a processed food? It doesn't grow on trees. Bread can also be a staple food.

Brought to you by the only* democracy in the Middle East. If Israel is truly a democracy doesn't mean the people voted for genocide?

* not actually true

I thought this was going to be about the Linux distro

She wasn't right about a lot of things, specially relating to the Middle East. Misguided at best, malicious at worst when it comes to the Middle East.

No one minds you voting for Biden believe it or not. We do mind being demonized and straw-personed for not voting for him.

An economic system and religion I can get behind

In Sharia law the woman has precedence over the fetus. So it is not less religiously radical, is just that when it comes to abortion [and divorce] Islam is not as anti-woman as Christianity.

The UAE here is actually catching up with other Middle Eastern countries:

Haaretz May 26, 2019: Alabama, Iran, or Saudi Arabia? We Checked Where Abortion Laws Are Better for Women.

Sherine Hamdy, a professor of Muslim bioethics at the University of California, Irvine, notes that for Muslim women, the U.S. anti-abortion trends are worrying not only because they harm women’s rights to reproductive agency, but also because they diminish religious freedoms, since Muslim religious ethics make a strong case for women’s well-being taking priority over that of the fetus.

The Center for American Progress JUL 8, 2022: Authoritarian Regimes Have More Progressive Abortion Policies Than Some U.S. States.

This means that Americans in states that effectively outlaw abortion, including Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and South Dakota, will have fewer human rights protections than those in Iran or Saudi Arabia—countries that are often vilified by politicians across the ideological spectrum for their treatment of women. Iran, for example, allows abortion in cases of fetal impairment, and Saudi Arabia allows for abortion when the health of a patient is at risk—including mental health, which can function to allow for abortion in cases of rape or incest—contrary to only the narrow “life” or “medical emergency” exceptions that are now increasingly common in state bans in the United States. [emphasis mine]

Women have more rights now in UAE than US?

Not just in the UAE :)
