    This carpet bombing with information is already happening. It's through the internet. It just takes time. I see it in the same way as science often progresses: "one funeral at a time". When older people with outdated ideas die, the younger better informed generation remains. They should be on the right course over there but it will take time.

    I think you're partly right, but you cannot deny the culture of anti-intellectualism that is pervasive and deeply rooted throughout african, middle-eastern, and asian societies. It's gonna take a LONG time.

    Faster than you might think. The anti-intellectuals are still in power that is why it isn't so readily apparent.
