My name is Abrar Al_shareef .I'm a freshman year at Yanbu University College in Yanbu AlSinaiyah, Saudi Arabia. This is my reply on Steele Dalton and Jacob Souther's video.
The media trys to show that women in the middle east have freedom to choose and to asks for her basic human rights.This is only true if you happen to be born in highly educated family or from an upper class. If you were from a middle class family or less it is more difficult for you as a women to ask for your right. There are many factors causing it, literacy, not knowing her rights, tribalism, social pressure, and the upbrining of girls in some situations. These things are real problems that faces many women in the middle east which we have to find solution for if we ever want to see changes in the next generation.

Q1- From my point of view, America claims to have freedom and democracy but the concept of democracy seems to based on political interests. I think the people and society live on their own concepts of freedom.
Q2-that our religion is our relationship with God so we do it as mush as we can but we pray 5 time in a day.
Q3-It's safe, more than other country ^_^
Q4- Middle East is a land of wealth and religions.
My name's shima'a aljuhani. I'm a freshman at Yanbu University College in Yanbu Al-Sinaiyah, Saudi Arabia. These are answers to questions middle eastern literature movie:
1- I think it is amodern country and contains different religion cultures.
2-first of all,I read the Holy Qura'an ,short stories , criminal novels .
3- No,it hasn't.Because my country, Saudia Arabia ,has been not colonized by any other country.
My name's alDana Bouq. I'm a freshman at Yanbu University College in Yanbu Al-Sinaiyah, Saudi Arabia. These are answers to questions M.E Taylor josh n konnor video:
1-Yes, ofcourse. As I am a muslim; I study an Islamic subject as"I slamic calture" and "Human Rights in Islam" .
2-Yes, they have a good relationships .Because in Islam ,there is no differents in cdours or certain ethnicities.
3-Because we all of us we pray to one god Allah, so no, there aren't any conflicts over religion and certain ethnicities in the M.S .
The video starts using pictures that cross his mind when you think of the Middle East and there's nothing wrong with them.
Then you talk about what you believe and you mentioned good things about the culture of the Middle East and what people really feel about terrorism and how they are against dictatorship. It's good that you know the truth and don't believe what the media works hard to get the world to think about the Middle East, the Middle East is the source of terrorism. But you believe in the gap between rich and poor, but I think that this doesn't only happen in the Middle East. Every country in the world has rich and poor.
How would I describe the Middle East? I would say, love, peace and safe living.

First, yes, I agree the prices of oil are increased because the situation in the Middle East, specially in Egypt and Libya.
Regarding architecture in Saudi Arabia,the most beautiful design in my opinion is the holy mosque.
Finally, transportation in Saudi Arabia needs some improvement, now, government started train project that will help in transportation.
Some people are using camels for transportation but not in cities or highways.
