1. America would still be living in the Middle Ages just like Muslim countries are doing today.
2. There would have been no space program
3. Home computers still would not have been invented or perfected.
4. Medical knowledge would be akin to that in 1500
5. The artistic and creative community would still be working on geometric designs so as to not offend Allah
6. Women would have no rights and would be living in 1300
7. The automobile would not have been perfected through the assembly line.
8. Schools would not be able to teach sex education and drivers training in the same days (because the camels would get too tired.)
9. Hollywood would be nonexistent.
10. No Broadway, no Disneyland, no modern entertainment, no Simpsons, no M*A*S*H, no classic musicals, no classic horror movies, no magazines, no freedom of the press, etc...
Basically, life would be the same in 2007 that it was in 1507 or 507 or 7 for that matter.

The middle east was ahead of europe in the middle ages (till 1400 more or less). Than Europe started to advance, leaving the middle east behind, discovering new worlds, entering the age of enlightenment, founding democracies etc...
If the middle east would have beaten Europe in that than probably they would have advanced in those other areas as well. Maybe catholic fundamentalists from England and Germany would be attacking the twin towers of New-Baghdad, placing bombs in Mekka and Damascus. Also many Germans and French immigrants would flood the far more prosperous countries of the Middle East. The USA (with support of Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Syria) would currently be invading France (because of their Weapons of Mass destruction), which would turn into a quagmyre. The anglican fundamantelist government of England would be working on an atomic bomb as well, causing grave concerns in the free world...

First of all, we threw the Europeans out.
And secondly, Muslims can't fight worth a damn on the battlefield. They're good at throwing hand grenades into school buses full of children, but when they are faced on the battlefield against U.S. Marines, they run like scalded dogs or surrender to reporters! We don't have any fear of a mass Muslim invasion. That's takes guts, and they don't have any.

Europe would be fighting for its survival - and the Mexican American war would stil be raging... no wait it would be that Mexican and UISA war (United Islamic states of America).
However, for all we know maybe the Europeans would've been able to launch an invasion of Arabia and detroy the islamic basis of power... in either case its simply playing devils adovcate

Sadly, it would be a third-world country and many of the advances in science, medicine, and technology (most a result of the space race) would never have happened.
