The Arab leaders stated that they want to keep their culture and their values intact; meaning, no more Western influence in their sphere. However, I believe it is too late for the Islamic cultures and countries. Women have access to the internet and will not stand forever being second class humans virtual servants in their cultures. Young women will realize that a young lady who dies young has to look forward to this in "paradise": being a sexual slave to an arrogant man for eternity.
Finally, I an encouraged because the second to last time I was in my local library, I saw a young Muslim woman(country or origin unknown-she may have been Arab, Persian, Afghani, Indones, Pakistani, etc)come over to the computer section and sit across from me. She looked around and then signed on and had a merry old time!

Hello Chou:
The Arab leaders want to hold on to what they've got - Power and money.
The world, she is a changin, however. Those days are gone. And, it's very astute of you, Chou, to notice that it's the internet that's changing everything.
How long will it take for the old to be replaced by the new? Hopefully, by the time my grandchildren have grandchildren.
The world is in its second industrial (information?) revolution. Only this time, it's the third world and it's going to take some time.
One of the problems standing in our way, is our leaders too, want to hang on to what they've got - power and money.

Meant that to be an answer. I bumped my head.
