My point is that Muslim countries, the religion or their theocracy (limited to only few countries, to be honest) is not the cause of the lack of freedom, you can see the lack of freedom and rights everywhere. The history of the Old World (Europe, Asia) is the cause, while USA made a positive change and huge leap forward with their revolution. Canada, Australia and New Zeeland inherited too much lack of freedom from UK, in my opinion, and that is visible from far and beyond. Also these countries are bragging with their democracy and liberalism, not Saudi Arabia or Iran.
