Europe is too poor to subsidiase long travel trains :p EU policy is more to introduce more competitions into the system / partly privatise it (like it works in Italy)

I disagree on this broad statement.

And yes, my pun which you didn't get just says: Building rockets isn't hard.

So there is a big race to build the next SpaceX. And I can assure you building rockets isn't rocket science. Other companies will follow propped up by their governments.

I know by intuition the place is of course way more complicated.

It's just a growing frustration based on Wikipedia pages, the homophobia made by Muslim refugees, talking with Atheist by these areas...

I guess the fact that Islam sees itself as a purer version and successor religion of Christianity doesn't help inner self criticism.

By the way we can see the same behaviour of Americans.

I'd like to know more.

"Denied basic rights? Basic rights to minority Christian, Jewish & Zoroastrian groups "

Maybe you just talked to Iranian Christians, Iranian Jewish or Atheist from Arabic countries. They might give a different clue.

" 100 years of subjugation & being broken up by the West (& having Western vassals & elites imposed as ruling classes),"

That's an excuse. No Western power force the Mullah regime to be so Islamist or the Islamic state to genocide Kurdish people. It stilled happened.

"you're taking this mess & overlaying it over the previous 1300 years, without a single regard for the truth. Seriously, go get a genuine history book, or talk to a history professor who knows about the Arab & Muslim world, and then curl up in embarrassment..."

Living in Berlin the city is fueled with people escaping from Islamic States. I take their word genuine.

But thank for the insight. In my opinion you can see a declining area how to react to critism. Many Americans deny their homes problem. So you do about the problems in Islam. But you what? There is a growing secular and anti islam movement in the Arabic world. Looks some people are smarter than you.

Though I am not an expert in Arabic history, Arab culture spreat through colonialism, had an extensive slave system, denied basic rights to religious minorities and the Islam religion feels superior to non - Islamic religion and atheism.

Many Arabs dont want to admit these problems which IMHO is the reason for their long term decline.

Btw. You can ask Canadian people what they thought about their annexation threats.

From a purely economic viewpoint Holocaust and 2nd world war were very very stupid decisions.
