    In recent years, Wright has visited the predominantly Muslim nations of Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon.

    Is this sentence trying to paint all Muslim-majority countries as repressive? I imagine she also visits several Christian-majority countries.

      Are you trying to paint Christian- majority countries as equally repressive as these listed countries?

      Well, yes. There’s a huge media frenzy for trying to paint Arabs and Muslims in general as less than human, anything that goes against that narrative is pretty evil.
