economic alternatives that are sustainable for a few decades, which no foreign power could ever afford via mere aid

I would submit that Western dependence upon middle eastern oil has resulted in one of the greatest economic "aid" programs ever seen..

Personally, I want to see the US reduce dependence on foreign oil/energy to 1973 levels or lower. Only then will the US be able to maintain its flexibility and objectivity with regard to foreign policy in the region.
