I disagree with the anti-western bit. A significant % are anti-western, true, but quite a lot want western style democracy and rights. (The sort we pretend we have, not the crappy ersatz version we actually have )

As to which group is bigger, I only have media reports to judge by, and that isn't much use, but when I see footage of the protests I look to see what they are wearing. Traditional robes, or jeans and jackets? I see both, and I see quite a few women with their faces, and even their heads, uncovered. Quite a few western-style logo T-shirts, too.

I guess it varies from country to country, too.
