The middle east is so fucked up.. I'm at the point where I don't believe there is a correct way to handle this. If you pull out and just leave them to their own devices, they'll simply allow the craziest militant religious nutbag to take power. Some asswipe who blames everyone but themselves for all their problems. They'll be sprouting up terrorist training camps quicker than a Starbucks building in a hipster neighborhood. We stay to keep that from happening, and we continue to sink billions of dollars into that shithole region.
At some point you would think the vast majority of the population, who simply want to live in peace, would "ball up" and take matters into their own hands. It's as if they are lost if they don't have a brutal dictator threatening death or torture every minute of every day. I truly feel sorry for those who are innocent and peaceful that live in the region. What a fucking nightmare life to have to live. You would think at some point they would wise up and say, "what the fuck has allah done for me"?
