Do we have some stereotypes working? You are particularly off the mark in Egypt, which has a much more secular population than, for example, Saudia Arabia, which is an autocratic/theocratic state. It is ruled by royalty, yet subject to strict muslim law. There is free speech about neither the government nor religion.
