It is not a matter of whether or not she will be taken seriously, by Arab and Muslim countries. Many of them have begun to adapt to the 21st century. It is our current Middle-East issues (Iraq, Iran, etc.) where she won't be respected or effective. Her reading off a global list of female leaders cannot make her anymore qualified to deal with backward, vicious dictators. Being an Islamic extremist is far different that being your typical male chauvinist. Here she may be told to "fetch me a beer, and bake me some cookies, woman." There it is more likely that she would be be-headed or our country attacked, being viewed as weak for electing a female.
Her self-righteous, better-than-thou attitude will not go far in the Middle East.
