They are kept in this perpetual state of strife by their repressive dictators.

I understand where you are coming from re Saudi Arabia, but you might find this argument a little inadequate when applied to Chechens & Palestinians.

The west wants and needs more democratic, middle class consumers around the globe to feed on.

Of course. However, that is only one of the needs of the west, and not even the most important one. Another, more important, need is oil.

These poor a-rabs are saturated with it from birth.

What is this with your spelling of "Arab" as "A-rab"? If you mean it as a pejorative, I am afraid the meaning is lost on me. If you don't know the correct spelling, you know it now.

Any government that attaches itself to royalty and religion is doomed to oppress the masses to maintain their demonic power.
