Look almost everywhere in the Middle East and you see secularism growing. Of course the American right wing will never acknowledge this as it take their natural enemy away.
I confirm that. When we were there we didnt meet a single person who like the regime - but we were mostly in the cities. Its different story in the countryside and small cities...
And there was a shitload of girls with "half hijab" on their head in the big cities...
