Enough with this strawman. We're attacking ideology, not people.
Last I've heard they can't pay western academics enough to stay. What's the point of pouring billions into a university when 90% of your K-12 education consists of memorizing the Koran?
Still. If the opportunity arose I wouldn't mind working for a year or two out there.
Literally who?

I meant the research over there. I know academics get paid twice the pay over there.

We had an international engineering competition with them one time, they got rekt by the Americans.

What are the rules there? I know they don't let the religious police operate there and it's coed, but I imagine they still have rules like don't mock Muhammad etc.
Every single university in the islamic world is literally shit tier.
Every. single. one.
Those Saudi fucks get a free pass, because they will just blot out everything with money.

>male genital mutilation is okay though
There is one simple question you have to ask whenever you consider a university:
>Is it in Western Europe, the US, Canada or Japan?
Then you'll get your answer. Everything else is garbage.
Honorable mentions are Eastern/Northern Europe. You won't get very far unless you're exceptional yourself though(and then you move onto the first tier).

why do people blame religions for peoples/countries misgivings?
>>9013666
This is patently false, there are universities in Iran that are top tier
>>9013688
>why do people blame religion when a devout person follows his religious instructions to the letter
Read the Quran
>>9013744
probably only a few and their not as good as the best European universities
>>9013772
Religion isnt about following every letter. Its about being faithful. God is beyond the words. People shouldnt be so stupid.

Jesus Christ I didn't know Americans lack this much perspective on the world
You literally have no knowledge on this subject and are basing it entirely on your dislike of Islam
>>9013886
You forgot that's just your opinion and isn't shared my any Islamic theologian
>>9013684
It's not, that's a Jewish custom that should be abolished.

If you're not baiting, you're utterly delusional. Virtually all worthwhile research in fields that matter come from the US and Europe
>>9013981
I went to a top US school for my graduate and there were many Iranians in the faculty. They mostly do their undergrads in Iran and then leave to Europe/US. The woman who won the Fields Medal a few years ago for instance did her BS at Sharif University of Technology.
You speak like a retarded American who grandstands all of US/Europe when you probably haven't even been here
>>9014237
The dude is saying all worthwhile research is happening in US and Europe, and then you give examples of people literally leaving Iran in order to do research in those countries. If the Iranian schools are top tier, why do all those people go to other countries?
>>9012053
They have a few good researchers but
1. No porn
2. No alcohol
3. You may speak to a woman, but only on campus
In other words, it's pure fucking meme kiddo.
