Here's the graphical representation of freedom in the Middle East and North Africa. Click to enlarge.
In the Middle East and North Africa, only 2% of the population live in countries that are considered "free" while 88% live in countries considered "not free" and 10% in "partially free" countries.
In fact, out of the five regions that Freedom House used for their statistics, the Middle East/North Africa was by far the least free in the world. In sub-Saharan Africa, for example, only 37% live in "not free" countries.
And the 2% in the Middle East/North Africa who do live in freedom? All of them happen to live in Israel.
It puts the Middle East problem in perspective, doesn't it?
