Answer 1
Women have very few rights in the Middle East.
Answer 2
It depends entirely on the country.
In Israel, the most liberal country in the Middle East:
Saudi Arabia, the most conservative Middle East does not have a single one of the above listed rights. Most famously, a Saudi woman can not drive.
Women can vote in Turkey, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, Syria, India, Bhutan, Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen, and Israel.
Women have the right to vote in all countries of the Middle East including the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. However, the next election cycle isn't until 2015 in Saudi Arabia.

It depends on the country in the Middle East.
Israel has a number of laws to protect women, guaranteeing her the right to wear whatever clothes she likes, the right to work and for equal pay and at whatever job she strikes her fancy, the right to choose with regards to abortion, the right to have a lesbian marriage (performed elsewhere) recognized in-country, the right to speak her mind, the right to drive and travel without restriction, and the right to vote.
Saudi Arabia gives women none of those rights by either law or custom.
It depends entirely on the country. Some countries, like Israel are incredibly liberal and protect the rights of freedom of speech, freedom of internal movement, meritocratic employment, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, freedom from unreasonable search, seizure, arrest, and detainment, and numerous similar freedoms. Some countries, like Saudi Arabia, are incredibly conservative and openly criminalize basic activities such as women who drive or women who travel without a male escort, they do not allow freedom of religion for Saudi citizens either and routinely demolish Shiite Mosques.

Beauty is always a matter of opinion. And I am not familiar with women in the Middle East !
The majority of women in the Middle East follow the religion of Islam.
Not since the days of Helen of Troy have women been the center of conflict in the Middle East. There is certainly internal strife in many Middle Eastern countries over how women should be treated with traditional models of female inferiority and subservience clashing with modern Western notions of female equality and independence, but this has not resulted in wars. What causes wars in the Middle East in the inability of many Middle Easterners to tolerate any cultures different than their own.
they hada different culture
The people in the Middle East that believed in God, were treated unfairly. They were sometimes killed for preaching, but were killed willingly in the name of God. They were not afraid of being killed for their faith either. It was dangerous for them in the Middle East before and after Christ came.
No. Women in the Middle East cannot drive cars.
Yeah sure why not
Foreign Policy has recently came out with an issue talking about how Middle Eastern Women are treated. It stated and I paraphrase" If you think that women are treated better than we say, we are wrong, they are treated way worse than we think." In Middle Eastern countries, they are mostly patriarchal and male-dominated societies, women are treated as subordinates. If you want to know how he treats you, I suggest reading answered questions about how to get to know a person.
