Wow sounds quite drastic but may be it will cut it. Arabs only understand and respect force and power. Best example is what happened in Afghanistan when the US and UK over powered the Arabs and the Taliban.

Regardless if they are good or bad people Arab mentality only understands and respects power not democracy. it is a social / cultural thing. They actually hate democracy which is evident from the Arab states.
