#4  Nothing in Kuwait, Iraq or Afghanistan is worth a bucket of warm camel pi**. Never been to Somalia or Syria. Probably much the same. Just a wild guess.

#2  The US spent 100's of $$$ Billions and many US Lives freeing IRAQ from Saddam Hussein. An this is the results of what that freedom and democracy achieved in the Arab world.

If so, then spending a few $$ million bribing Arab dictators to behave, seems to be cheaper and results less lives lost.
