MM;

If it weren't for us paying them big dollars for their oil they'd still be living as nomads, not that it's a bad life

If we weren't paying them for oil - someone else would. What makes you think we are "entitled" to it?

I believe a great deal of effort has been expended in trying to work with Islamic nations. Some of them are just stuck in the 11th century and this is the 21st

So you think it is our destination to force our life on them? That never works - THEY have to decide to change their life.
