I'm the one who called them medieval. Islamic dominated nations are experiencing a prolonged period of cultural decline that became really evident in the Nineteenth Century. See Bernard Lewis' What Went Wrong? This represents a recurring phenomenon in world history and is invariably associated with religious absolutists gaining political control of a people coupled with isolation from enlightened elments of the world's peoples (which have existed someplace throughout recorded history). See Lewis, supra. This is why many people fear Mitt Romney as president.
