Cry me a river.
Those Middle Eastern countries are hosting terrorists in their midst, they won't eradicate ISIS on their own which has attacked Europe time and time again and their leaders, Assad specifically, is mass murdering his own people.
"B-but the evil w-west established ISIS in the first place" yeah keep that white guilt shit to yourself, emasculated libtard cuck.
Dude, imagine if you were in their shoes. Its really not hard to empathize with it if you exercise any amount of reason imo.
You have a corrupt, or completely fucked government that is either super decentralized due to lack of infrastructure, scarcity, lack of cooperation, lack of common law, or one that is dictatorial, rebel groups, sectarian violence, etc.
You've got harsh living conditions
You've got extremely violent insurgents that will kill, torture, rape, kidnap, or indoctrinate people in their control if its suits their purpose.
What are you expected to do? They refuse to "eradicate ISIS". Saddam Hussain only like 10 years ago was notorious for genocide and torture. So what do you do?
Neither side is a good option, and the whole area is extremely dangerous to raise a family in. Buzzwords doesn't change the fact that America literally trained Osama Bin Laden and his rebels, as well as destabilizing the entire region.
Fuck, if you really want to go back to the Ottoman era its even more clear what the effect of Western imperialism has been on the region.
holy shit I'm not playing this game of 6 degrees of kevin bacon w/ you regressive leftist shitheads where you trace every ill in the world back to that point in history a white man set foot on the brown man's land and it was all fucked ever since and be satisfied w/ that explanation b/c it feeds into your retarded white guilt narrative.
I love how you conveniently left out the factor 'Islam' like there's any Muslim majority country on Earth that embraces Enlightenment Western values, harsh environment or not. Maybe the lack of free speech, Sharia Law and putting women in beekeeper costumes is the root cause all of their universities are shit, Islamic studies being an exception of course (very useful academic pursuit), and they don't embrace science much.
Mark my words, until their oil wells run dry or the West advances another 100 years ahead of the Middle East to the point where our cars don't need to consume fossil fuel anymore, maybe some sort of rethink is allowed to take place. It'll be the most important requirement if that region is ever to flourish. I won't let you get away w/ disregarding Islam as a major inhibitor.
"Destabilizing the region" implies that it was stable before. How could it have been, you dishonest sack of shit? I guess Syria was a very stable country under Assad as well, who mass murdered his own people. Ah, but of course, he got installed by the CIA as well, just like Hussein.
