While I would be the first to agree with this as well, we have ****ed that region so hard for so long, the only way it will stabilize is if we pull out of the region COMPLETELY (not going to happen) or we fix it ourselves (only this time instead of saying we are spreading democracy while grabbin that oil and installing a despotic ruler that lets us do what we want, we actually try to prop up their governments with a legitimate democracy).
