I wonder what the education levels are for the ordinary people in countries where Islamic religious activism is very high. We already know that the unemployment is at obscene levels. I read recently that Libyan economy is entirely based on oil exports and over 90% of the people are dependent on the government for a paycheck.
So what is a long term solution to improve education so that religious fanaticism is moderated and economic opportunities improved. Where is this going to come from? Economies of most ME countries are based on oil exports and with the value of oil diminishing, their situation is untenable.
