Riz Khan - Unemployment in the Arab world - 12 Sept 07

[DuckingNDiving]

@kfakhable the mughals lost their power in india and became british subjects for over 100 years,learn some history you uneducated stone worshipper

[DuckingNDiving]

@kfakhable muslims never destroyed ireland,in fact 3/4 of the british army that destroyed the muslim mughal empire in india were irish,we a small nation made you muslims bow to the british king and queen,we humilated your allah that lives in the kaaba stone

[DuckingNDiving]

@kfakhable you muslims only destroy yourselfs,look at iraq today,it would be a rich and powerful nation if it accepted democracy,but you muslims think it is better for sunni/shiiahs to kill one another and fight the people that helped free you from sadam hussein,you are led astray by satan sura 14:4

[clash92779093]

Its all a game.. Simply A Game.. Thumbs up if you agree

[sonalirmr]

Well there is unemployment in many parts of the world including India. But why is it that only Muslims turn to terrorism while poor unemployed Hindus don't?

[shouffia]

Great initiative by a non Arab citizen, whereas rich gulf and other Arab countries' leaders are wasting their billions on lavish lifestyles.

All the Arab youths' dreams are to have decent lives with well respected jobs and their dignity.

[DuckingNDiving]

@shouffia saudia arabia wastes its wealth in the west,it spends fortunes on trying to propagate islam here by building many mosques,why does it not spend money on jobs,all the arab countries combined cannot even manufacture 1 car or even a good tv set,its oil resources are not infinite,they need to spend money on infrastructure

[SatchmoSings]

There's a reason why Israel gets a five BILLION dollar CPU factory from "Intel" while Arabs can't even get a factory to sew friggin' DOLL CLOTHES!

Without political freedom there is no economic development; get that through your heads!

[suloverboy]

yeah rit israel and Political Fredom !!! ... lollllll u must be kidding ur self ... those fucking pricks make every 1 of there people to serve in the army for a whole year without freaking pay!!! ..fuck tht fredom .... they got the contract and all other incentivs because of the jewish lobby holding us congress by the fing neck m8 ... get ur facts straight

[SatchmoSings]

The portion of the Arab world that is oil-rich earns more money each year than the trade surpluses of The People's Republic of China and they have been essentially earning this money since 1974.

I would think that by now they would have enough money to not only get the US Congress to "shrug off" AIPAC but to also gain the overall sympathy of the American Public as well.

But, they haven't.

That's because the message of the oil-rich Muslim world is pretty awful.

[suloverboy]

u r rit arabs can easily buy off half ofthe world .. but they think about morality not just money m8 thts only the freaking greedy indians n pakis lyk u ... think abut it is it rit if they buy ur rights from ur countries leaders lyk fing jews do ..... certainly not thts why arabs dont do it !! because its wrong. but they do u afavour n u call it their weakness .. thts retarded man!! get ur head rit

[Tigris363]

@SatchmoSings this has nothing to with religion so dont bring religion into this. its about there greed

[SatchmoSings]

@Tigris363 Israel gets a five billion dollar CPU factory/research facility from "Intel" while all of over a billion Muslims (and 400 million Arabs) can't even get a factory to sew doll clothes. (Turkey is the lone exception this way.)

Since OPEC raised oil prices in 1974, none of this money has gone to creating a world-class medical center, university or culturally institution of any kind; Saudi Arabia still has over 20% illiteracy.

[Tigris363]

@SatchmoSings we have factorys in all the arab world but they dont make up a large portion of their countrys gdp. and yes the money has been spend on large infstructer progects and building of world calls universitys and culturally institutions. we may be corrupt but not that much

[SatchmoSings]

suloverboy--

Even the paid al-Jazeera announcer alludes to the problems of these nations this way in his intro.

You shouldn't contradict him.

Muslim countries don't have the level of education nor the other facilities of industrialized nations to be capable of such plumbs; the whole of the Muslim world has 500 colleges and universities to India's 3500.

[suloverboy]

r u kidding me ... look up how many universities iran has ...they alone have nearly just as many universities as india ... than there is pakistan, egypt, ........ these r the countries which provide world class education ... and believe me i m not against india or anyother developing country for tht matter ... but for ur self proclaimed title of worlds lrgest democracy u should at least try to minimize the economic socio partitions rich gets richer poor gets eliminated horayy!! thts india.

[edgeofchaos1]

Kudos to Mr. Bruder. Inspiring work.

[Ezzedeen01]

Missionaries. They don't belong in the Muslim heartlands.

STAY OUT

[doodtoo]

I also wanted to give proper consideration to Mayyada Abu Jabar, but my first post ran out of characters.....Keep up the good work people, we will become a world community one day with efforts of you and those like you.

[doodtoo]

Very interesting. To be honest, I expected a radical point of view or presentation. The name Al Jazeera is all but vilified when presented in the American press. I was very pleased to see that it was an educated and realistic discussion among individuals who understand that many social issues are universal. I believe I am better for watching. Ron Bruder should be congratulated for working with Arab countries in an effort to improve life for all.

Unemployment acts as a problem in everywhere in the World. Not only in the Arab region.

[kadarali2007]

the reason why unemployment is their in arabe world because of boming war from the weast.

[ChemicalSally]

"50% of stupid muslims in the middle east and SE Asia under the age of 24 are unemployed, gratefully ;-)"

This is why "Americans" are the most hated in the world! Stop generalising you fuckhead!

[couscouswoman]

You are stupid idiot. You are from Britain. Your country is so stupid that it became so small. One day you will lose scotland and you will become even smaller. We are better than you, idiot. Your country is full of prostitutes, thieves, and psychos.

[mohanned2007]

lm with you my brother !

[mohanned2007]

go and see what your fucking brothers do in iraq and palestine they are kill peoples every day , and we are not stupid . l dont know why you are the American peoples take every thing from us and then say we are stupid !

[ChemicalSally]

what the hell look back at the old comments i was quoting "buzzin1975"... i was cursing at him whats wrong with you ..wow i cant believe i posted that comment a year ago

[PeaceOnThisEarth]

Great report Riz Khan! Definitely favorited this one. It is great to show some of the not just positive, but innovative SOLUTIONS for problems there. I am left with a sense of hope. Thank you.

[dargay]

you knowledge of Muslims is zero. Stay limited to rap and hip-hop.

[48marz48]

foititis: you neocon joos got us into this war. Iraq will fail. The surge ( a Kagen joo idea) has failed. We destroyed a perfectly good country, enabled Bin Laden, all to satisfy the jewry in your attempts to steal more land.

Enough. Stay in israel, don't come back.

Joos have done enough damage to America.

[48marz48]

"50% of arabs in the middle east and SE Asia under the age of 24 are unemployed."

This is why Bin Laden will win - and Bushy Boy will lose.

[foititis]

What does it mean Bushy Boy will lose? If America loses in Iraq there will be civil war, genocide, economic instability, a country without law, etc. America failing means Iraq fails but Iraq has more to lose than America.

[Birdmon1]

rofl....try China too, can't wait for that Jihaaaaad

[msgg81]

this comes back to the basic .... what are goverment ministries doing in that particular country.

[buzzin1975]

Answer: Nothing

[Justyburger]

This is very positive. There are some very good principles at work here and this i think is a big reason for its success. People see the good in it and identify it. People are basically the same the world over and this is why all four countries are doing well. Who would not want prosperity, jobs and a decent life? Its a universal wish. I visit Jordan this year for vacation. Very much looking forward to it.
